What would the install run me or is it something i could do in a weekend myself?

 

I will have to ask Steve when he gets here tomorrow.

If you are doing the coilovers yourself, then the rest is easy.

 

Easy as pie. Control arms take some wrestling to get them into place though...

 

OK thanks, Do you remember how long it took you to put yours in?

 

OK then i will most likely do it myself and spend my money with you guys in other areas.

 

Control arms take an hour. The end links are plain simple. half hour to an hour for front and rear. Like I said before though, hold off on the end links unless you find you actually need them.

 

I thought you had to change the end links if you started using camber plates

 

We did ours up at Steves house. 1st coilover install. Took a bit to get the right settings. Should be a lot easier on yours.

If I remember, 2-days. Front one day, rear one day.

 

Depends on how low and the camber. Ours put a bind on the swaybar, so we put them on.

 

I see ok, well i better just get them right off the bat then.

 

Your money...

 

We both have them on our MINI's. We also have upper and lower rear control arms. Steve made a bracket for the headlight sensor.

 

Did you buy the set from Michele?

 

Not yet i have about 3/4's of it saved up now i just need to come up with the rest. So it will most likely be early feb when i buy them. I just wanted to see how much more i needed to save up to have them on the car by AMVIV.

 

After install, you will need to get it aligned

 

i know David and i talked about that today, Do you remember how much it is?

 

I think Steve paid $140 or so. Depends on what you do. Its getting easier for him now.

Dave is very cool

 

~$200 depending on the shop. If you file the openings on your strut towers, it makes it alot easier.

 

Dave is nicer than that

Look at Steve's to see what Blake is talking about.

 

Gees do they make anything Cheap on thiese things.

 

Yea i saw steves i don't want to do that if i can get away with it. Do you have it done?

 

Not yet. I have a dremel ready to do it soon.

 

Nope, and don't plan to. I'm not going to adjust mine.

 

ok so i don't have to do it as long as i'm ok with the settings. I can live with that.

 

I don't have that luxary.
