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?

Allpro Subaru has worked on mine a few times. Give them a call.

What were they charging for a simple install?

SUB-FT86 04-03-2015 06:05 PM

Nevermind they want way too much.

lastexile1987 04-03-2015 07:13 PM

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?

lastexile1987 04-06-2015 08:46 PM

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. :)

Global alliance in Lawrenceville. Fyi cash only, but good prices and lower friendly. 404-375-3269

SUB-FT86 04-07-2015 11:07 AM

Damn I just finally realized that some of you guys would've done it for me. I thought the thread would die so I found a shop to do it for $280.

Tien0227 04-07-2015 02:38 PM

Not patient enough! :)

SUB-FT86 04-07-2015 09:15 PM

Well I did find a price that's good realistically so I feel I was patient enough. I was quoted figures between $475-$850 for just a spring install. If I knew a car guy pretty well I bet I could've saved an extra $80-100. With the price of my Hotchkis Sport Springs plus install I paid $475 so I'm happy that I fell under $500 for spring and install.

Tien0227 04-08-2015 12:47 AM

I hope that included the alignment. :)

Did you have springs or coilovers install? how much did they charge? I saw their Instagram page and it seems like a good place to do the install and get an alignment.

cash only? sounds like the kind of guys that if they screw something up to bad for you. I would be very skeptical.

Credit card processing fees are ridiculous.

Tien0227 04-27-2015 07:18 PM

I just heard they started taking credit card payments
