Default '97 Civic CX - good quality alignment kit?

Im looking into AutoX racing and getting all the necessary tools
ill need to maintain my Honda. Ive been trying to find a good quality alignment kit that I don’t have to spend my whole paycheck on. I am a DIY mechanic and Ive been looking into to a couple different forums, came across this quicktrick alignment kit. Has anyone heard of this company? I have seen a bunch a good reviews on it just wondering if anyone has it or has used one. http://www.quicktrickalignment.com/

If you are going to AUTOX, spend the money and get a good alignment.

Eyeball spec and string spec alignments have been successfully done on civics for a long time. It's not a very sensitive chassis in that way.

OP, try to look for used toe setters.

You can also buy a lifetime alignment at a shop for under the cost of a toe gauge/setter. I'm a DIY guy myself...but there's no advantage to being 100% on your own for alignments. If you want a trackside change, you can get toe and camber close enough via string or a tape measure and eyeballs.

Otherwise, just get a lifetime alignment somewhere.
