Honestly I think it is a great deal. Springs and endlinks alone took myself (experienced) 8 hours. Plus another 2-3 hours for cat back exhaust then a pulley. Better to have them do it at at that price for sure.

I need to take my car to him one day this week to replace these stupid recalled brakes.

[LongBeachCoupe]

FYI on the brakes, its not ALL brakes on ALL coupes... he follows the TSB's.

Its not a whole exhaust hes installing ricko, just the y-pipe portion.

This is the price from my nissan tech, we are trying to see if its a fair (good deal, ok deal, bad deal) price.

[Bmore-coupe]

I think that is about right

Most of what you are paying for is the time that it will take. The springs alone can take a couple hours.

[Desire1314]

I'd do it. I paid about $500 just to have my springs installed by unprofessionals at Big O Tires. Hence why they went out of business

[RobPaulson]

just to put in my 2 cents ....

i got quoted 150 for installation on my pulley, the guy said he does a flat rate on performance pulley installs (full of s*** imo). this literally takes 20minutes to do if you know how to change a tire and have a high powered impact wrench.

Ypipe install from same garage was about 110 after tax and everything (hour of labor + fees BS etc).

I did not like these prices, but apparently they are (plz someone correct me if i'm wrong) standard

[maxentropy]

Definitely a good price for around me/NYC...

yea man springs are a b**** and YEAH ur dropping it i knew u would come along lol

[Andy_G]

For all the work they are doing it sounds reasonable. Probably about 4 hours work in total. Took me about 2 hours to do my springs.

springs and endlinks cost me 120$ CAD, y-pipe is a 20 min thing so id say 50$ CAD + material (gasket, bolts) max

under dive pulley don't know but i'm assuming its easy with a puller s i'd say max 150$ CAD for that.

ask for 400$

[dangeris]

I paid $0 for all of those (except the y-pipe). My guys work for beer and pizza

But $500 is very reasonable. Is an alignment included after the spring install?

[DAAN.]

It's a deal. Show us the results ...

$500 is too expensive bro. I assume it'd take them 2.5 hrs to install the springs with alignment. The rest is a piece of cake with an air gun. I'd expect them to finish within everything in less than 4 hrs. If I do my math correctly .$50/ 1 hr labor. ---> 4 hrs = 200. Price range should be 200-250.

if u can do some of it urself why not do some and save some money. if not then thats a decent price. are they throwing in aligment?

If you find someone to put this stuff on for $200, ill pay for it. $500 may be a little high, but $200-250 is just dreaming.

Also this WOULD NOT include alignment because he would be doing it at his house.
