Houston Install Price
 

So I contacted my local shop here in Houston, TX that has done some simple work on my Z thus far (exhaust & sway bars) to ask about an install price on springs, struts, rear chamber arms, toe bolts, and eccentric lockout.

The e-mail I got back quoted approx. 11 hours labor or about $1,200.

This struck me as entirely too high. Am I off base here?

I'm not naming the shop, but it one of the only two places here that are known to specialize in 370s...

Thanks for your input and help.

That does seem high by a few hours.

Thanks man -- I couldn't see this being correct either.

I figured the springs and struts are probably a good 5 hours, SPL quotes .6/hr a side for the rear chamber arms, and I would think the toe bolts and eccentric lockout would be fairly straightforward as well...

Do you know any other reputable shops here in Houston...?

You should hook up with Houston Z's and get them to help u install for beers and pizza.

Gas Head Motorsports installed my camber arms and performed an alignment for less than 3 bills.

Only place I know is J-Tran Motorsports. But anyways, if you're looking at professional shops, they would always charge an arm and leg. I'm in the Dallas area and could easily knock over 50% of their price. Try seeking some enthusiasts there that works on their cars, they might be able to help you out b:tup:

They hear a nice sport car and their eyes lit up with dollar signs. The highest I've been quoted for all of the above installed was about 600-$750. But I ended up paying less than half that including my test pipes installed. Too bad you're not in Socal you could hit me up for a referral.
