Alignment shop in San Diego

Who knows of a good alignment shop here in San Diego. There's tons of places in the penny saver that will do it for $25 but I'm not sure if I should trust them.

Where are you at in SD? I'm pretty sure they're still there, but try North City Alignment in Miramar (next to AAMCO). Go down Miramar Rd towards the I-15 freeway and make a left on Black Mtn Rd and it'll be on your right.

They did a good alignment on my car and replaced ball joints on my brother's IROC for a reasonable price...nice people too. This was a few years back but I was satisfied with their work.

Good to go. I'm at Miramar so that's perfect! Wish we could be in Oki!

I know its non-tech, but I spent almost 8 years over on Oki.

Imagine how many of those 4-bangers you could smoke over there if you had your 3gen with you.

I know what you mean! I spent LOTS of time in Iwakuni and dreamed of having my TA there. Couldn't afford gas for it though...
