thanks ulises, i can take her to a shop but i'm afraid that even if i ask the work done per my request (loading the suspension, and measuring endlinks to have zero preload). i feel like these shop mechanics around here will dismiss what i want, cut corners and just to a common uninstall - install job.

thanks for the help bro, but my front end needs a good refreshening asap. these damned nyc streets wreack havoc on lowered cars, and i hate driving slow.

i'm thinking of taking it to atlas and see what they 'll say about how i want it done

i feel you want to get it done right and most of the mom and pop store dont understand that ... that why i ask you about the alignment shop that time,the guy i use to take it to ...thought i was stupid when i ask him to do my back on my 240sx and he said " you dont do that on this car you cant there preset from the factory" i was like hell no put back on the lift and ill show you where the eccentric bolt are located at " omg i had a field day with him...

just fyi remember also after you get it done your going to need to re tightening everything once again

Anyone need mod work done on their car give my friend Nick a call and tell him Mike with the modified IS250 referred you. Nick is located in Central and Northern Jersey.

He is a Lexus service manager who is into the mod scene as well and started a shop with some friend to work on cars for shows. He took care of me both as a Lexus customer through the dealership and other non OEM work through his shop as well. Nick's number below:
