Stillen in Toronto, looking for Front Strut Tower Bar & Rear Sway Bar.

[bembol]

tires23 is the only place I deal with when it comes to my MODS but he doesn't deal with Stillen, do you think $320 taxes-in is a good price on the Eibach Pro Kit?

I'm looking for Stillen in Toronto, any deals out there? Thanks.

He's saying that his local retailer for modifications doesn't carry the STILLEN items, and he's asking if anyone knows another retailer that does in the area, or if the deal he's been quoted is a good deal getting to him in Toronto.

bembol, we are a non-resident importer into Canada, which can save on taxes and we are generally extremely competitive on the shipping.

If you haven't I would encourage you to give one of our sales guys a call to quote specifics (if you haven't already).

Thanks!

Brian he wanted to know why you americans have issues sending stuff to the great white north

Almost all the stuff in my sig was ordered direct from Stillen, including my Eibachs and Injen. Good prices, great service.

I would have to disagree on spending that 300+ bucks, i had the same problem here, a aftermarket retailer that alot know called JRP in Mississauga was gonna charge me atleast 350 for them then i looked on ebay where their going for 210 cdn and the guy said 65 bucks for shipping so that comes to a total of $275 cdn which is dam good, i dont know how much stillen is charging but the springs alone are $242 US on there site and i emailed for a shipping quote but never got a reply

Yes, it was a few months ago, but I paid $260 (CAN) for them, and ordered some other stuff too. I think shipping was $50 (CAN) but like I said, it included some other parts too so it was reasonable, especially considering that my closest Stillen dealer is about $25 in gas away from me!

I'm surprised you never got a response from Stillen. I have always got a response from Margaret within hours, if not minutes! Another reason I deal direct with them.

Thanks, I contacted Stillen and got quotes.

Ferguson, DaCoupe or any NICO. Where did you get your Springs, Bars installed? If you don't mind, how much did you pay?

[Ferguson]

Bembol, the rear springs are a good DIY install (a little finicky but not at all hard). You could do the fronts if you were adventurous (the struts have to be disassembled) AND had access to spring compressors. My 17-year-old son did the rears (in well under an hour), but I had a local NAPA shop in Dundalk do the fronts (I had no access to spring compressors). He charged me about $200, which also included driving me home and picking me up again - I live outside of town in the country - and he did the job right so I have no complaint with the price. It took them about 3 hours to do the fronts, mainly because their compressors were awkward for springs as short as the Eibachs.

The RSB is a very simple DIY job. I think mine, along with Racingline end links, was on in about 20 minutes.

[Ferguson]

Oh, and if you're doing the front strut brace, DIY! Again, very simple install. Just follow the instructions. Brad, my son, had that thing on in minutes!

Notice a pattern?... I give most of the install jobs to my son... I wear the white hat and supervise!

[Blackmobile]

racingline's going to be coming out with springs kinda soon, and since they ship from canada you won't have to pay an arm and a leg plus duties. and they already have the strut bar out, and the sway bar is going to be out very soon.

[DaCoupe]

Well everything ive bought ive done myself, my eibachs are on the way so ill probably do it myself, i know a way of putting the fronts on without having to disassemble the strut and brakes/rotors ect.. thats what i love about this car, nothing that has come out has required any heavy machinery or have required a lot of disassembling
