Since the car has had the back arms removed it didn't fell as planted as before, so before going to Rockingham tomorrow I wanted a fresh Geo. Steve really pulled out the stops to get me in today as I only gave him short notice. What a top bloke with bags of knowledge and even showed us around the Time Attack Exige, what a beast! The car is back as it was before so a very BIG thank you from me! Great service. thumbsup

Had my geo and caster done at Guglielmi today and all i can say is WOW!!!! my car feels totally planted even at high speeds (it previously felt a bit wishy washy), its just awesome, words can't say how good it feels. I've had my geo done before, but it has never felt so good!!! Highly recomend them to anyone to get a totally different driving experience out of their vx!!! nat

Arround £140-£180 depending on how much work (road testing ect) is required. (changing castor settings / ride height is of course extra on top of that)

Its a 'little' more than others but more than worth it for Steve and Dave's knowledge and attention to detail, as others have said I've had geo's done at other specialists over the years but Guglielmi's is head and shoulders above anyone else and I'd not go anywhere else to have my car set up.

They do their own custom spec Nitrons as well. Haven't tried others, but man I liked the "Nurburgring" version that I got a ride in! Nice and compliant with CORRECT damping :wub: Can't afford Nitrons though. :angry2:

My car just came back from Guglielmi's. It was in for new brake pads, front brake discs, tyres, coolant bottle, repair to chargecooler pipe, and new turbo....quite a lot of stuff really. Steve recommended Pagid RS29 (yellow) pads up front with replacement AP Racing discs...then SBS pads at the rear. The idea here being that I wear my front pagid brake discs a bit less quickly than using Pagid RS14s...I'll see how that works. Anyway, all the work was done within a few days and the car came back in top shape. I did a trackday at Silverstone on Tuesday and had no issues with any of the work...which is highly impressive....and very important since I'm off to France in the car shortly for French Frolic and wouldn't want the car breaking over there. I also agree their geos are top quality and totally transformed the handling of my car when originally done. Once again, I would highly recommend them.

Have to agree with the about. Have the geo done on Friday and top marks from me. Steve showed me around the Time Attack Exige, what a beast Imnotworthy I could have spent longer just chatting to Steve but didn't have the time but can most definitely recommend them. I will be back again.
