Edmonton - Spring Install

Hello!

I currently have an Eibach Pro-Kit on order and it's expected to arrive in a few weeks. I wanted to know if you guys can recommend a good reputable place to get these installed in Edmonton. Thanks in advance for any suggestions, much appreciated

I don't think there are any decent shops i would trust my car with in Edmonton. Most of us Albertans go to Lightspeed Innovations in RedDeer, I couldn't name one shop in Edmonton that isnt a train wreck. If I was forced to pick a shop Project Omega is OK they seem to deal in lots of high end parts but the cars I see that they have built they seem to lack attention to detail. However lots of the other tuning shops in Edmonton are out rite crooks! So if reddeer is too far, i would go to Project Omega.

I've heard as much about the Edmonton shops, good to know. I'll definately try Lightspeed in Red Deer, it's really not that far

I would concer with the opinion of SL V35 ........ Edmonton shops suck and are expensive.

Thats why I do most of my own work. If I want someone to do it, I'll ask Cam at Lightspeed for a quote.






p.s. I picked up a 800 lb transmission jack at Princess Auto the other day. Sweet thing with lots of adjustments. Any one needs it, let me know

^^^ Good to know.

I did my own BC coilover install. It was easy to do, but it does help when you have a garage and all the proper tools, including a spring compressor. I would agree that there are no shops in Edmonton that I would trust.

Wow, that's one heavy jack, ZZ, how did you manage to pick it up?? I know, I know, I'm not going to get to borrow it... I think I know the one, saw it in the flyer the other day.

Stems, maybe if you offered up some pizza & beer you could entice one or two of the local members to help you out.

I hate to volunteer people but for a few bucks Zat Zuma and/or 350Z T are more than capable however they are busy guys. If you are not using air tools red35 is good . Shoot some PMs around or try cam@lightspeedinnovations.com I would help but I am still behind on my own never ending project and I am getting tired of driving my truck to meets
