10 hours for springs and spacers??

Thanks for all your input everyone.

Today I talked with another shop (they're an UpRev dealer/tuner) that, at least looking at their website and according to them, does a lot of Z and G stuff, and they told me it would take 11 hours! I was quite surprised, coming from a place that's familiar with our cars. But, I think I found out why the number is so out there. The guy I spoke to told me he gets his numbers from a program called AllDataPro, which I guess tells him how long certain things should take. Obviously, AllDataPro has no idea what's involved, and it was telling him 2.4 hours for JUST the rear springs alone. Obviously waaaay off.

I was hoping to find a place that was local that would give me a realistic number, but it doesn't look like that's going to happen. Thanks to a few of you, though, I've gotten some offers to help do the work if I drive a little bit to meet up. the370z.com community FTW!
