Tein springs, install and prices...

how are these springs? anybody here have them installed on their car?

i'm looking to get them(1.7 drop all around) on my '02 sedan, with an ingalls camber kit all around as well.

the cheapest price i found for the springs and camber kit was $204 for the springs and $220 for the camber kit at JRP in sauga. Altech can do the install for about $200 with alignment, $140 without. that brings my total to $624 + taxes.

is this a good deal?

i've been riding around on goldlines for about a year now and i cant stand the ride anymore...springs are fine just my shocks are shot, i wish i did my suspesion properly the first time around and gotten koni or some type of coilover system (although there werent any when i bought my car at the time)

For the amount your gonna spend you might as well save a bit more and do it properly, you wont regret it...

...and i didnt need a spring compressor when i did my springs, just go slowly...hehe...no, go to a shop, dont wanna be responsible for the hole in your chest...j/k

what does the koni cup kit consist of?

combination of koni shocks and neuspeed springs?

if i want to go fully adjustable will i have to completely get rid of my neuspeed races?

im pretty sure i do...might just get koni yellows
