referral - springs/shocks/struts

[chibianh]

Hey Tobi,

Tai referred me to you. I'm planning on buying Tai's springs but they're "together" with the shocks/struts. You remember, right? You installed his mugen. Anyway, how much would it cost to remove the springs and install them on my car? Would it be cheaper to just install the hole springs/struts/shocks combo instead of removing the springs and then just installing that? I'm pretty sure it would. What would you recommend?

[HONDA GHANDI]

If you want to just do a straight strut/spring combo swap it will be $100 for all 4.
If you want me to break down the struts and swap the springs over it will be $270.

[chibianh]

Thanks for the quick response.

How about if I somehow got the springs off? How much to just install some springs? Do you do alignments also?

[HONDA GHANDI]

Just for the springs is the same price, its approximatly the same amout of work to put them in the spring compressor. I dont reccomend trying to take them apart without a spring compressor. You may lose a finger.
I dont do alignments here, I send them to Planet Honda or Honnda Stuff.

shweet! When are you available? And how much are ur rates for installing a catback exhaust system?

[HONDA GHANDI]

Any time during the week of the 5th - 9th is good. What is your schedule like?

$40 on the catback.
