Which one did you get?

Oh Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhh - PerfectSaiyan - 01-07-2006

cool I have mine sitting in my room gathering dust, as they have been for 2 months... how much will it cost for you to put them in? I have considered sticking mine in but i really want to wait for my brother to install them with his compressor...

Same question to you.... what dampers are you using with those springs? The stockers will be shot in a couple of months, and not ride too good...

Oh Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhh - ZX3TUNING - 01-08-2006

stock shock will work and will last for a while. H&R now makes a "touring" cup kit which only drops the car 1.5" iirc. comes with shocks and is matched and balanced perfectly like the standard Cup kit with the big Drop.

where do you guys go to get these installed?

and how much are you expected to fork out to get it all put in?

Oh Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhh - ZX3Blake - 01-08-2006

Okay so you start by taking off yer wheels...YUP..its true

Fronts

Rears

Then you purposely park next to a stock ZX5 for a pic

Before

After

I was surprised at just how easy this was. It took me just under 2 hours to do all four springs. Mind you the first one, was the learning one....what does what what goes where kinda thing..after that...it was cake...Do it yourself if you can...save atleast 300 bones.
