[quang]

hi guys, i've gone around canberra getting quotes for koni yellows and pro kits springs pretty much the best offer i've found is 1900 for parts, installation and wheel alignment. does anyone know where i can get this done cheaper, i've read that people have got it done for heaps less, can anyone recommend a place even if its out of state probably syd or maybe vic
thanks

Advantage Suspension in Melbourne

Nathan is the mofo in charge.

He does a lot of koni stuff.

Price sounds a little high but maybe that is the current going rate.

Start at koni web site or ring them and ask for 5 of their resellers and get quotes off each of them.

20 minutes on the phone and you will have your answer.

thats damn expensive..

*edited out irrellevant info*

[barefootbonzai]

$1900 just buy some coilovers from one of the traders.

[armak81]

yes too expensive.. i'm sure you can find it for around $1500 without installation

[bennjamin]

installation at a workshop is about $200...i can do it for half that price tho :)

Full wheel alignment after is about $80. Sounds like the quote you got is abit too much.

kinda 800-900 springs 450...... installation a hell of alot cheaper if u come to sydney

add another grand to that aye, and you'll be about right dude

Buy off an ozhonda trader, fit yourself (its really no that hard) and get a wheel alignment at the cheapest place

[SLPJCooL]

I wouldn't doubt that, Tien SS are pretty cheap these days! You can Prob knock off a set for $1600 shipped from US.

traders here sell tein flex with upper mounts for just over $2K... ANYWAY... back on topic... ;)

[hondar]

just get my cusco sussy 1595, heigth and damper adjustable. suitable for street use. guaranteed. they on offer by cusco now :D

[quang]

i forgot to add this comes with warranty on parts or should i not even really bother, also i've got to consider whether coilovers are for me, the thought of having is cool, but as i'm not particulary familiar with them(wouldn't have a clue on how to adjust them and don't really think i be would tinkering around with most of the time anyway) and don't really have the prospect of tracking that much or at all the only real thing i like about them is the external height adj. but again its never too late to learn

[EK9R]

check in the for sale section dude

[quang]

just quickly again what advantages do coilovers have over shocks and springs. (i think i'm gonna get jammed for this by the mods sorry). or bit back on topic what about 1600 for same thing but with kings springs

[CHU85]

can't u get d2 sus for 1300 somewhere here?

[elim]

You can PM PLYBOY regarding D2 sus's.
