I've been browsing through this site for awhile now and just stumbled on this section its cool. Im looking for a place near boston(i live in somerville)that can work on my car, I have a 03 coupe and im looking to get some things installed(coilovers and camber kit, i was thinking about doing it myself but just incase things dont got accordingly) your feedback would be appreciated. Thanx in advance!

 

the hi-tech g backyard!

 

suspension work is easy... just grab a few friends and some beer! now if u'r talking about body work, then that's a whole different story...

 

Lmfao!

 

Not sure for tuner shops....I have a full garage of air tools but no money to mod my car.

 

I know a place that does suspension in Watertown. PM me if you're interested.

 

Half these shops around here wont even come near aftermarket parts....ive seen a couple of g's rollin around here with **** loads of stuff on them,just wondering if they did the work them selves or had a shop do it.

 

Suspension is one of the most easiest jobs to do on these carrs providing you have the right tools which would consist of an impact gun, 17mm impact socket, 17mm open/closed end wrench, 10mm and 12mm socket. Also can't forget the jack and jack stands I've done a few suspensions for some members here on the boards.

I've done most of my modding (nitrous, Tein coilovers, EDFC, headlamps, tailights, intake, sways endlinks, brakes etc) all in my backyard. There aren't many shops left around for the tuners.

 

I definitely agree that you can do all this stuff yourself, but for those who just don't have the time to spare...I do have a mechanic in Watertown that is very honest and will give you a good rate.

 

For tuning there is New England Dyno in Douglas. Little more than an hour from boston but 30 minutes for me

 

Pepsi if you want send me a PM and we can set up a date and I will help you with the install. It's pretty straight foward for the install.

 

Especially since he has coilovers and not just installing springs. Damn that spring compressor!

Never installed camber kit on a G, but I did the rears for my TSX and it wasn't bad. Gotta get an alignment afterwards though.

 

^Yeah that was the funniest night of the Summer for us....LMFAO. The camber kit is simple but like Virtual said once it's on you have to get a wheel alignment.

 

longest spring install in history haha

 

i was thinking of doing the springs myself with my boy, he has a lift in his garage and all the tool necessary, im keeping stock shocks for now tho how long would it take for the install given that he has all the right tools?
