Hey guys, I just got some springs for my 8. Where are some good places to get my springs installed and how much? Any info would be greatly appreciated. The best deal I can get right now is $125. Thanks!

 

yeah...i wanna know this, too.

 

Come over one weekend and I'll do it for free. I have a spring compressor.

 

how sweet you are..hahaha

 

ooo.. spring compressor.. :P Ok, time to setup a Monthly meet at least one time at Samsonite's place.

 

If you have an offer to have it done for free, I would go with that. If you still need a shop, check with driftspeed.com. They should be able to handle it for less and are in Westminster.

 

mazdatrix can do it in signal hill

 

Hmm. You know, I never even realised how close to Mazdatrix I now live. Good to know!

 

mazdatrix did my eibachs but it was 100 bucks

 

sheesh! people here in IL start spring installs @ $175.. consider yourselves lucky!

 

anytime

 

100 bucks at Mazdatrix, pretty nice! Thanks for the help guys.

 

which springs did you get?

 

i called mazdatrix long ago to have my eibachs installed. they quoted me $200. i found a place in the valley (where i used to live in Reseda) called 2k racing (2kracing.com). They did it $100 the first time. then i had teins installed again for $125. still pretty cheap in my opinion.

 

Drift Speed would do it for $100 as well.

 

Good stuff to know....as well as for other so cal rx8ers. oh ya i got sprint springs....I like the drop I saw on someone's car here a few days ago.

 

nice, how much do they Sprint springs drop the car?

 

i got them for about $150 from suspension max, supposedly its a 1.75 inch drop, but i've heard it goes down to 2 inches...

 

I can give some great deal on springs if anyone needs some.

Didnt the owners of driftspeed change ??

I went to a small mom-n-pop shop in East LA called "Ken's Delta Tire" and got new KYB shocks and struts on all four corners of my RX-7 for $250, parts, labor, and laser alignment included. I'm guessing the labor was about $25 per corner and shouldn't be different from installing springs.
