Sup guys. I just got my Tien-S techs in. I was planning on installing them myself but i dont want to mess anything up. So if any of you guys could point me towards a reputable shop with a decent price that would be much appreciated. If i were to do it myself do you guys think i could take the springs to a shop and ask them if i could use their compressor? Thanks!

 

Had my springs installed at JT Motoring. They did a good job..they have worked on a few G37s so I guess they know what they are doing..heres there website

I dont think a shop will let you use their stuff, but if you want a reputable guy to do them for you email my friend Dave @ dave96dcmss@yahoo.com

Sick prices and knows everything about cars, give him a shot!

 

So i got a couple of quotes from some shops ranging from $305-$200. I decided to do it myself so i rented a spring compressor from Autozone and i got my car all jacked up and im under the car then BOOM! it starts to rain. Awsome New England weather. Been raining for like a month straight now. And to add insult to injury I broke the torque wrench and i now have a small ding on the right side of my wheel. DAMN. Sigh im just goin to have to wait till Sunday to get it done at my buddys shop for the hook up.

 

You can remove the entire front strut/spring assembly without compressing/removing the springs. Then take the whole thing to a shop along with your new front springs and have them decompress/swap/compress the spring assemblies and put them all back together for you. Then just go install the new assembly. They shouldn't charge you much for it since it's only a few minutes of labor to swap the springs out. The rears re very easy and don't require a compressor.

 

same thing happend to me. the day i got my new rims it started rain as soon as i jacked the car up.

 

pro spec auto in Quincy is VERY cheap

JT Motoring is decent (200) but they used wrong bolt and forced it in and needed to eb replaced....dumb ****s but others have had good experience with them

East Side Motoring in Waltham is cheap too

Boston sucks for performance shops

 

Damn so i might just get this shop to do it for $230.....u guys think that is expensive? One shop actually quoted me 6-8 hours around $600.......are you kidding me....i just laughed at the guy.

 

^^ lol that's even worse than the dealership who wanted to charge 450 or something. If someone qutoes you that much and that long to do it...he doesn't know what the **** he's doing

 

So i just paid some guy to do it for me...i will post pics soon but guess what? its raining...big surprise. I guess its suppose to rain for the next 3-4 days...nice.

 

good thing it's raining. We needed it badly, hasn't rained much lately
