Please recommend a Good Shop for coilover installation In GTA

So I got the KW V3 and SPL camber arm Front&Rear installed at WhiteHead Performance yesterday. About 1 inch drop all around. Mike, the manager is really nice. Good Job.

Default Coilover and Camber Kit installed on the Car!

So I got the KW V3 and SPL camber arm Front&Rear installed at WhiteHead Performance yesterday.

About 1 inch drop all around.

Mike, the manager is really nice. Good Job.

however, I was told by the alignment guy , that the rear toe was off by a tiny bit, that I need some sort of bolt or toe arm to so that i can bring it back to factory spec.

here's some pictures

It appears that most of the fingers are pointing to Whitehead Performance for anything Z related. That's where I would start.

Any reputable shop (doesn't need to be Z specific) should be able to install coilovers for you. If you're in a pinch, contact me. I can install them for you.

I have used speedstars in Markham north of mccowan and hwy 7 to install my exhaust and they do my work.

Any competent shop should be good. Whitehead is good for parts and seem pretty versed in more specialized z work. Not to say other shops won't suck

I will be giving them a try in the spring with an CBE and CAI install. Everyone I have spoken to seems to agree that Whiteheads prices are reasonable and that the quality of their service is well above par. Also, Whitehead was reccomended by the Ontario Z-Car Association. Z's are their specialty, so I will go with the specialists.
