Detailing is not worth the work needed for all that. I'm in the IE and I'd be down to help you for money


Or like a million paint corrections if your good lol not just a wax job I can do myself. Pm me or text me 909-275-6261

Spring compressor can be rented. And the bleeder isnt needed, i just did the oldschool bleeding technique for the brakes.

You also you don't need a spring compressor if you know what your doing. Lastly they are rent able for $60. Then refused when you return it

i have never installed suspension parts before, so i have no clue what im doing. thats what this forum and youtube are for

i wasnt asking someone to help with everything. just thought if they already had a bleeder or possibly access to a press, etc.

no worries. i'll figure it out

I know forsure alone I'd need a full day iron not more. If there is no hiccups along the way. I did coil swap and brake kit on mine not too long ago and it took me all day. Then I had to adjust coil height.

But you also have to swap top hats and I'd need to remove your arm to press it at work. Easily need two days but I see you have another car so that should work out?

Sorry. I should have been clearer. I'm not looking for someone to sit thru the whole install. I would bring the shock or LCA to you. I read it could be dangerous removing the spring? Especially if you don't know what youre doing. lol

I ended up ordering a bleeder since I know this isn't the only time I'm going to need it. So I'm good there.

it did occur to me today, that I ordered SS lines for a 370Z, since the calipers are from a 370Z. But I'm guessing I'm gonna have an issue attaching the other end of the line?

No spring compresser needed. You may need 350z brake lines.

I didn't shave the dimples on mine btw
