Anyone know where i can find the best deal on Eibach Pro-kit springs? I just bought my 17" gunmetal Arospeed RSGT's today so while im at it im gonna get springs and shocks(Koni Yellow's with Eibach Pro-kit"...Also if anyone knows where i can get a good deal on Koni Yelow's

Got my koni's for $525 shipped from www.modacar.com . Got my eibach pro-kit for $195 shipped off of www.groupbuycenter.com . I believe that www.modacar.com has the pro-kit on sale right now for just under $200.

Modacar's a cool place to buy; maybe not the cheapest, but
good. www.modacar.com. For "basics", at least, it's
good.

modacar had the best prices that I could find on the koni's. I managed to find them at an in-state dealer for $530, but then would have had to pay taxes on it. shox.com quoted me a price of $569. They claim price matching, but they said that their sellers license or something with koni wouldn't allow them to sell them as low as modacar.

i dunno if they have shocks or not.
but www.adventon.com has the eibach pro kits for like $172

What do you guys think of the Pro Kit paired with KYB GR2's?

What's "GR2's"? I was thinking of getting KYB's later on: alot
of these "online places" seem partial to selling both as kits,
and I don't think they'd do that just to make a "fast buck".
Here's what I was thinking for the Nissan, except with "pro"-
kits: http://www.modacar.com/products/Nissan/200SX/MODASUP/

I just got a price quote from a koni dealer....for koni yellow's they are $99 dollars each....+shipping...does this sound right?

That sounds too cheap for them. I can't find them less than $140ea for my car.

If it's for real, let us know. I'd love to get them at that price.

 

[ChaeJunSays]

yeah i was a bit skeptical of that price...the guy only seems to supply mustang parts...but dunno yet

I ended up just buying the Koni yellow's from Modacar...529.00 shipping included....and 205 with shipping for the Eibach Pro-Kit from http://www.importcarpartsplus.com

I got my prokit from carparts.com. the site is HUGE, and sometimes hard to navigate, and they have a LOT of random domestic sh!t, but if you know what you're looking for, and it's common (i.e. Eibach Prokit), they'll have it.

Plus, they have an eternal 10% off coupon: enter "SAVE10" at checkout.

How much do you think it would cost to get my springs and shocks and new rims installed on the car? How much did u guys get charged if you didn't install em yourself?

I got ripped, but the guy did it up right. Alot of places
will refuse your business, so make sure you have a good,
agreeable, mechanic before you buy. Alot of the "how-to's"
I've seen, though, make me believe it's an "easy job", even
for me . The hardest part is renting/buying a spring compresser.
If you're confident in your "DIY" skills, I'd go for it.

try www.ebay.com also

Swapping the suspension out isn't hard at all, but it is a lot of work. I did it by myself and it took about 7hrs. You can buy a spring compressor for $40 if you cant find a rental place. Most AutoZone's rent them out.

anyone have a good DIY link on how to do this?

 

[kommon_sense]

the $12 haynes manual has pretty much all of the info that you need. You will need it anyways to get the torque specs for all of the bolts.
