Atlanta guys with some know how?

Did any Atlanta FRS/BRZ owners installed lowering springs or know someone who does the work for a great price?

Really? I've found their prices rather fair. They've done springs, front pipe and a supercharger for me. Charged me 680 for the sc install

They want to charge me $670 for spring install and alignment. Your supercharger install sounds like a way better deal than some springs being install for nearly the same.

Oh well...you can also check out top speed motorsports as well. They are very reputable and work on some high end vehicles (gtr's and r8's)

All you need is jacks, basic wrenches and a cool spring compressor. Very simple install. any shop can do it. I would say 2-3 hrs shop labor at most and an alignment usually runs 50-70. If you were closer to athens I'd do it for you at a reasonable rate.

Give Kong's Body Shop a shout and see how much they'll charge you for it.

I'm east of atl by 30 minutes. I'd be glad to do the install for substantially less. PM me if you'd like.

$680? That's not bad... what SC did you go with?

Jackson racing. They charged me for the suggested completion time on the instructions which is 7-8 hours I believe.

If I remember correctly, their hour rate is 89 so with other costs, they charged me for 7 hours

Yeah the centrifugal ones like Kraftwerks and Jackson are pretty easy to install since it's all self contained, no removing the manifold, etc.

Spring install is almost more work.
