Eeesh, that seems a bit expensive. I'm sure you can find a good shop to do it for less...

Yeah haha, everyone knows Evasive's quality of work though! Some FD are already $800+ only for parts so adding $900= $1700 lol

+1 for Young at autotuned. He has very reasonable prices for quality work.

Machine shop or transmission shop should be able to do it also if you provide shims and specs for the backlash/play.

Call the shops that were mentioned in this thread.

Tell them you are comparing the prices.

Yep. Young Tea is so much more reasonable in prices compare to other reputable shops in Socal.

+1 for Young Tea at Auto Tuned. He's got my car right now for a turbo install. He was actually telling me today about an aluminum driveshaft install he did not too long ago. But you better try to schedule something with him quick. He's going to FD with Greddy next week.

Evasive is great but as of last wed they said they're backed up till 2nd week of aug.
