Camber Toe (Lynbrook, NY) - review

Just got back from Camber Toe in Lynbrook, NY (Nassau County) and had them align the Evo. Ryan was able to fit me in at the end of the day and the customer service was fantastic.

Sing had looked over my car, asked me if I had any specifics I wanted done and we discussed what I used the car for and he made some suggestions. He talked to me about the effects the camber, toe and caster had on the car before and while working on the car to make sure I understood what was being done. After completion Sing took the car out for a spin to make sure everything was tight and the job was done properly.

Very courteous and professional guys and was very happy with the work performed.

If you are around the Lynbrook area and are looking for an alignment or tires mounted and balanced you should look into Camber Toe:

So what did you have done? On what car? And with what suspension setup?

Just curious...

Had them perform an alignment and setup the camber and toe to specific specs. Work was done on my Evo, Apexi N1 coilovers.

The car is mostly on the street with the ocassional trip to the drag strip once or twice a month. I went with:
-0.8 camber (all around)
-0.1 front toe
+0.1 rear toe

I'll revisit how aggressive I really need to be after a few passes down the track. Sadly this is the first time I'm trying to dial-in the suspension on the car so I'm sure I'll make some future changes depending on tire choice and what not.

Stupid question, but why did you get coilovers for what the car is used for?

How do you like the N1 coilovers for NYC driving?

no experience with them, but when I read the title of this thread I could have swore it said Camel Toe Review... needless to say I was disapointed to come in here and see no pics.
