Default West End Alignment...Hoax?

Hey guys, I installed Z1 upper control arms and rear arms on my 370Z. I took it this past Friday to West End to get corner balanced. Chris worked on my car (he did last year as well with stock camber).


He told me that the front is not far off and he'll be able to adjust without removing the wheels, so he'll be done sooner. Which to me was very surprising, as you know Z1 upper control arms requires to be partially or completely removed to adjust the length, but I doubted myself and not West End as they are known to be the best.

He finished the car at 12:20 and told me that he had front at -3.3, 0 toe and rear at 2.6 1/8 toe.

Btw, my appointment was at 11 but I found out that he had another appointment at 12:30. So he kind of knew/wanted that he'll be done in an hour and a half with my car. Hmmmm...

My OCD took me today to our neighborhood PepBoys to check my alignment using their Hunter computerized machine. Sure enough, the alignment was far off. -2.7 FL and 3.7 FR! Attached are both West End and Computer alignment check.

What do you guys think? Could the computer be wrong? What would you do?

Sorry, duplicate post, don't know how to delete thread
