How much to install 350z h-techs?

Winner Infiniti just quoted me $585 to install h-techs (I already have the springs) and to do an alignment. For those of you who had them installed, how much did it cost?

Yeah I figured $600 was a scam. From what I hear the rears are pretty easy but the fronts are kinda difficult. Not $600 worth of difficult though.

I had Woodlands Performance and Suspension remove my old non-sport suspension and replace it with the Sport Tuned suspension for $200. Then I had to pay for an alignment. $200 is about right. Infiniti wanted $600.

It is very easy!

I did it myself. I had never done any suspension work ever before, but I was feeling confident!

I found a DIY guide on this site, and I followed that. I did have to buy a jack, jack stands, and spring compressors. In the end, I spent about $150 for the tools, but now I own them!


I didn't know what I was doing, and I did it in less than 2 hours. Now, I could do it in undr an hour.....going at a liesurely pace.

I paid $100 at a local shop...I normally wouldnt trust just any shop..but what the heck..its only springs...the front springs are the hardest part. The rear springs are so easy to install..they only have 2 or 4 bolts on them.
