I'm looking to remove my HKS coilovers and put my stock suspension back on my car. I was wondering if you guys knew of any local shops that would do this at a reasonable (cheap) price.

Thanks in advance..!

Cool, yea I sent a PM to Kris.

Do you guys have any experience with any of these other shops? Just wondering what the average price is to put back the stock suspension.

Do it yourself. This one time I was replacing my springs at 2am at home. Just don't start doing it late like me and then end up doing it all night.

Ironically I work at a smog shop on the weekends and have access to a lift and air tools. I just don't have a spring compressor (do I even need one?), oh and I'm hella lazy .

someone PMed me and offered to stop by and help. I MIGHT just try it DIY style, but I'll try calling around tomorrow to see what the going rate is. If you guys know of any other reasonably priced places/people, please let me know.

where do you work? its only few bolts, i might be able to help

You won't need a spring compressor Bert as the front struts should be intact since you went with a coilover setup. It helps to have air tools but not necissary.

Thanks! but the shop is all the way in Los Gatos though.

thanks Chris, man I might just try this myself then. What about the rear? do I need to compress the stock spring to get in back in place?

Sorry, totally clueless about this. Thanks again for the help.

+1 for SpeedElement.

If I don't need a spring compressor then I'm gonna take a crack at this first.


Just to confirm, this is what I have for the stock parts:

^Right on. Good luck.

Are you getting rid of the car?

just tighten everything! =D

Thanks guys! What about the rear springs thoughhhhhhhhhh??? Will I need to compress them to get them into place?

Rob - Yea, I do want to sell it. My son is finally old enough to ride in the back without a car seat so I really want to get a coupe.
