hello
i recently bought Tein 350Z HTechs..
First i called Meineke and asked them how much it would cost
to install some lowering springs..They quoted me $400-500??
Second, i then called GoodYear and asked them they said
$500-$600????
Finally i called Pep Boys
they quoted me $430!

god damn why is so expensive? or are they ripping me!

 

My boy just got his tein basics installed for $200 from a regular shop.

 

^wtf!..thats it!

 

springs? any shop can do it for like 100 bucks TOPS... places like goodyear and wheel works charge 120 a hour... and estimate it to be like a 3 hour job... springs take a hour at most even if u dont know what your doing..

 

Take some before and after pics. I want to get some too, but want to know how the ride is and how the drop is. Your my guinea pig!

 

^lol...i duno if im goin to install my springs now..since it cost like $500 shiet i duno ill have to see!

 

I got mine for around $250 installed, brand new springs. Look for a tuner shop, rather than a generic retail shop. They quote high because they think the general public is stupid.

 

A spring install should not be more than $200.00. Those prices are totally out of wack..


CorvetteKid:

I had these on my car for the past two years...Ride is very similar to stock, almost no difference and not really to hard on your oem struts..The drop itself is nice in the front but almost no difference in the rear, which was my biggest complaint. I'd advise to do the spring mount mod so you can actually have a drop in the rear.

I live a few miles from Altered Atmosphere, when I got my spacer from them they quoted me a ridiculous $450 on install for my 350z H-techs. I was like thanks but no thanks. My boy's gonna help me install them saturday. Should be a lovely drop for my X, can't wait. I also got the Richie strutbar from the forum and will be putting that on as well.

$500 - $600 is rape!!! Pay 5times the price of the springs to get them installed??

paid $100 to have my h-techs installed. you should pay no more than $150 imo. find someone that knows someone on the boards around u

 

thanks everyone but noone lives in PITTSBURGH PA!?!? lol..anyone out there know how to install springs!?!?

 

paid $150 for mine. Go to a tuner shop...not those retail places

 

There is a DIY just do it yourself, you can rent tools from local autozone or pepboys and save 300-400 bux. This install should not be more than 200-300 bux

 

i cant seem to find any tuner shops where i live..you think i should go to the stealership? lol...or go to a local body shop or something
