How much time does it take to install a set of

1. coilovers -

2 rear Sway bar -

3 Rear Trailing Arm Bushings -

4. Alignment -

Please let me know cuz the quote i just got is for an absurd amount...say $1100

 

Are you mechanically inclined at all? You should be able to do 1, 2 and maybe three yourself with the proper tools. Maybe ask for some help in your regional forum. #4 You can get done at your local tire shop for $100 or less. Will be more if you get a race shop to do it but they will be more willing to adjust it to performance specs rather than whatever the computer tells them to.

1. 1-2 hours depending on YOU, another 1-2 hours finding ride a good ride height and messing with damping. use accurate measuring tools and take notes save lots of time with ride height.

2. since your doing the coils...30 minutes

3. not sure...only a few minutes to get the arm off. might need a press so probably take longer to drive to one

4. 200 bucks cause you @ a race shop and getting corner balanced

 

$1100!!!! man they better give you a hooker with the install price i would say $300-400 would be about right or lesser.and if theyre gonna do alignment they better corner weigh the car also for that much.

 

Definately, $1100 is really high. I usually charge $300 to $350 for that type of work. If you are any where near PA give me a call (215-450-1251) otherwise do the work yourself. Not only will you save some money you will also learn about the car as you are doing it.

If you plan on racing the car definately have the car corner balanced. Also, Evos love camber. I run 4 to 5 degrees depending the track.

 

yea 1100 is rediculous..either they hate imports, or have never worked on an evo before so have no idea of the time frame involved...good luck..times listed sound about right
