I think he may be referring to paying for an alignment once and getting the rest of them free for the lifetime of the car.

When I had my RX7 I got the lifetime alignment from Firestone, and I think it was about $165. It was kinda nice, I could go get an aggressive alignment for auto-xing, then get it changed back on the way home for better tire wear.

There's definately some power to be had....spool/low end torque

For starters run the mivec map from the JDM 9.

You looking at getting something else?

Cool man. Does it say anything on what happened?
Lifetime alignment at Firestone by Fashion Place... Maybe Euclid will chime in with more information.

No, my gf is looking at getting out of her beat to hell 99 Cavalier, and she really really wants a mini, but they're all out of her price range, or have too many miles.

Probably doesn't, car fax things usually never say much more.

The lifetime alignment at the Firestone by Fashion Place is $140, and they claim they will do it to your specs.

Read your current ROM to figure out the ECU ROM ID. Then you can pick the right one here:

Make sure to change the immobilizer code to match your original one... I think it may still be enabled.

PM me with your e-mail i have the JDM Mivec and such.


And ya I mean a lifetime alignment as in I can take it in as many times as I want for that vehicle as long as you own that car. I would take it in after new tires, after new wheels, shocks, any work where I have to take out an axle. ETC. Thats what I am looking for. Friend got it on his RX7 because he knew he was going to make allot of changes.

MY cars running again, Not a drop of oil leak and my custom mivec line looks great, but was a little pricey at 70.00+

Gear I think we need to get together and work on some tuning with my car. I just dont know what I need to do to make it stop going lean right as you give it a little gas, if you have the load up it does not do it. Just from lights when you are going really easy and what not, mostly in first, second sometimes third. the load builds after that. I need to add more fuel, turned down the meth a little and started to see the change in fuel.
