Cost of Lowering the PR5

['olzoomer]

What is the total cost including installation (approximately) for getting my PR5 lowered? How do the Eibach Pro springs ride? How much of a drop will it give? Do the stock shocks need to be replaced too?

Thanks!

cost is totally up to you, it can be free if you have a weekend and some tools. there are some great instructions in the how to forum. and replacing the wheels are up to you also, you dont have to replace them, lots of people leave the stockies on and drop it. other than that you would just have to call some places and see what installs would run, you might call some dealerships in your town. like i called a ford dealership to get my quote for that. and arent eibachs like 1.5'' all around, and like 230.00 costwise. oh and for installs i have heard from 90 bucks to 400(omg) which is really high.

I had a guy at a reputable shop tell me "If you come by with the springs, I'll set them up with Tokiko Blues and install them for $400".
Good deal?

you also need an alignment.

Tokico blues aren't available for our cars *yet*.

They're off of his MP3. They're almost new(2000mi) Do you think it's a good deal?

Well www.mazdastuff.com sells the MP3 struts for $460, so installing them with springs sounds good for $400...

Thanks for the research, bro.
I knew those guys were straight-up, now I just need $600!
