Hey guys, my suspension parts are in :D ! Brandon offered his place and tools if hes not hungover tommorow. The catch is, I have so much freakin studying to do this weekend I wanna see if we can get the install done in 4-5 hours max. Its just springs, shocks, camber bolts, intake, delete intake silencer. If we have enough hands, (i.e. a couple of guys at each corner) it should go fast. As of right now, I'm gonna head over to Brandon's place around 9am with all the parts. If there arent enough people or we just dont feel like doing the whole thing, we'll only do the intake. Anyway, thats the story, post up if you wanna help out.

So does that mean that the rest of us who didn't help out have to pay for a ride? :roll:

Sounds like you guys are getting pretty good with suspension work. I have as set of springs to put on the SRT. I'll be honest though I really have no idea how to do it all. Anyone want to help out?

Shane, I will help you out. With Matt's WRX it was Brandon, me, Matt, and Tim and it didn't take us that long to do it. I would say if Brandon has some free time then the 3 of us can get it done pretty quick.

On the second shock tower... after it was out of the car... Brandon and I took it apart, put the new one together, and it was in teh car with the wheel going on all in 5 minutes.

I have ground control coilovers and agx shocks that I need to put on my integra. Does wednesday night work for anyone? I've watched/helped where I could on one of my other cars...so I still need someone that knows what they're doing to guide me.

So to the people with garages and knowledge of putting suspension on....what time is best for you? I can do it tonight (wednesday) or even tommorow night (thursday). I'm hoping my rear LCA bolts aren't locked up like most hondas and I don't have to annihilate my current bushings and buy new ones.

Lol, thats the exact problem i ran into last thursday, and our cars are about the same age.... buy some PB blaster and spray it on the night before you do the install, and pray a lot.. we couldnt get our bushing out so i had to order a whole new rear upper control arm :mad: but now the results were worth it....

You've insulted most of those people, and the rest of them just dont like your attitude. I think you shot yourself in the foot there, man. Just a heads up.
