just wondering can anyone give me an estimate of how much a spring mod would cost?

well the obvious is the cost of the springs you choose, then labor should be around $100 or you can DYI!

oh of course, what i meant was the labor cost, sorry about the confusion and if possible the how long would it take?

to install springs is like about a bill.

used springs: $100
install: $100
alignment: $90
Total: $290

Thats how much it cost me...

Might need to pick up a camber kit though, that'll be more $$$

Yes, what ginobetterfly said. Also depends on how much your springs will drop your Z. What kind of springs are you getting? If they drop it an inch, you're going to need a camber kit which is obviously going to cost more. If you're dropping only like 0.6/0.7" or so, you should be fine w/o a camber kit.

i see, i was planning to more of an aggressive drop so around 1 inch. didn't know so much work was involved though. Thought you only needed the springs and install and that was it. But thanks for all your help.

what highside is talking about is if you drop too low, you'll have camber issues, and to fix that, there are some additional parts that you'll need. I have eibach pro-kits and that's about 1 inch to 1.1 after it settles. Maybe a bit more but not enough where i need camber kits or anything. So at 1 inch you'll be fine.

i got the Hotchkis springs.. mild, MILD drop... waaaaay milder than the Eibach Pro... (there's pics in the Media Share)

I dont have any camber or toe kits, and the alignment shop was not able to get me back to factory specs on the FRONT LEFT camber.. im just barelly out of spec... maybe they're just not a very good alignment shop or maybe its impossible to get it back to spec, i dont know...

i was most worried about rear camber, due to my soft and expensive 295s in the rear that i dont want un-even wear on... according to the paper im just barelly IN spec in the rear... yet the wheels still sit like this /---\ if you are looking at them from the rear... sooo i dont know...
