looking for Melbourne alignment specialist, maybe CentreLine
Hi all,
I've got a E90 M3 and I am looking for an alignment place that knows their stuff and can tinker with the car's setup to get some better steering response and turn-in. I'm already considering camber plates, but want to see what I can get through the stock setup first. Centreline Suspension up in Thomastown has been recommended to me by the manager of an Autobahn I stop at. Anyone here know of Centreline? They charge $130 (which is reasonable, that's how much I used to pay at a specialist place 10 years ago in Sydney) And he said that it would be $260 tops if he needs to play with it to try and extract some more negative camber. They had generally positive comments google reviews - with 1 detailed negative review that would put anyone off. Though in their favour, when I visited there were a couple of track cars being worked on in there. Anyway, wondering if there's any other places people could recommend? -Simeon |

I did end up going to Centreline,
they were okay, but I'm not sure how I feel about the end result. Going in, I'd had this big discussion with them about how I was after improved steering feel/response and that I'd read that increased negative camber was the way to go. (Check this great post out - that got me started on all this: http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=882698 Comments in post#7 in particular echo what I 've read eslewhere.) After all that, when I picked the car up what they'd done was brought the front camber back from -1.2 to -1.0!? However they did zero out the toe, where it had been facing inwards before. So... Yeah, it feels a little bit better, but nothing dramatic. I still haven't got the answer to whether I want to spring for a set of camber plates and try out a full negative 2-2.5 camber. I want to experiment to be honest, and I don't want to pay someone $130 everytime to try something else out. I might go buy a reasonable camber/toe gauge off ebay and just do it myself. -Simeon |
