what is the estimated cost for lowering springs and to have it actually lowered?

 

well comptechs are 300, h and r's are 180 ish. Eibachs are like 250 i believe. Those are the most common springs people use around here. Normally ive seen places charge anywhere from 50-100 for install

 

do you need to change the stock shocks if you change springs?

 

no, yes it may save money on instalation to have them done at the same time, but if you dont have the money its ok. It will just wear your stock shocks a little faster. I have 77K on my stock shocks and I have Comptech springs...Ive only had the springs for like 5K though.

 

just wondering wat the heck you guys r doin up at almost 4AM?? i'm up cuz of my scary dream, but didn't know the forums are alive and well at 4AM....g'night.

 

well shawn..at west coast it's not even 1 am yet

 

oh rite....i love time zones, they're so fun. ....okay, time for sleep, got classes tomorrow. peace.

 

I paid $225 for my Eibach Prokit springs that includes shipping and $350 to install them at the dealer. I might have been ripped off on the install, but I know it is done right and if anything breaks its on them. The cheapest price I got for the install was $300, but the shop looked shady, so 50 bucks more I would rather have piece of mind. I live in the Wash DC area so, labor cost are bit more I guess. You will also have to get an alignment after the springs are installed thats about another $70 or so.

 

Pikes Peak Acura here in Colorado Springs, CO will do the whole package for right at $600 which includes the Comptech Springs, the installation and the alignment. If you call your Acura dealer, often they run package specials on Acura approved accessories, such as comptech. The dealer here is "supposedly" the #1 comptech installer in the country for Acura's. So, I guess I'll go that route, once I get my car out of the shop repairing $5500.00 in hail damage. Geez.

 

Comptech is not Acura approved. Rather, it's more based on the dealership itself. For example, my dealership won't touch aftermarket parts. Naturally, they are not mod-friendly.

However, there are dealerships out there who install aftermarket parts and offer a warranty on the installation. That's up to the dealership; not Acura in general.

 

Tein SS Coilovers: $955
Install Labor: $250
Complete Camber kit if neede: $250
Alignment: $ 80
Total Cost for Coilovers: $1,535

Note: this does not include labor for install of camber kit!!

 

my H&R Sports - 205 shipped.
install - 25 bucks

 

what determines if you need a camber kit or not? also if the car is affected because a camber kit was not used when the car was lowered is the damage to your car correctable?

 

I can do H&R's for $250 installed. That's springs and labor.

 

TEIN S-tech $210
install $120
