How much to install MS3 spring & camber

[stanley_cup]

I have decided to go just with the Mazdaspeed 3 spring and camber kit from one of the vendors here on the site and was wondering HOW MUCH SHOULD IT COST TO INSTALL THIS?

I called around here in the Miami area and got $280.00 for the spring install plus $60.00 for alignment (if needed)
I think that $280 is rather steep but I reall do not know.

It is not feasible for me to do it so I have to go to a shop.
Thanks

I called dealer OUUUUCH

dealer goes by 6hrs x 90.00= $540.00 with alignment. I am getting a deal at the local shop.

that $280 seems pretty reasonable, actually. how handy are you? if you're willing to put in some work, you can definitely do the work yourself! =d

got it done!!!

I got the MS3 springs and camber installed with alignment on all 4s grand total of $400.00. Based on what you guys have told me I think I did pretty good. I have a question.......

Every time I hit a bump---small-or large----- I hear a loud clack, clank sound from the frnt. As if some thing is going to come off but nothing does.

This sound NEVER happened with the stock springs. Any comments or ideas what it could be?? Is this normal?? No rear end noise.

Other than that springs are stiffer but not harsh and only lowered about .5 of an inch or so. Do not want any lower. Car is low enough out of the box.

Even 4 wheel thrust alignment should be less than 75$ MOve on to someone you can trust you will do better!
