i went WA suspension. they gave me a $300 estimation where as maximum motorsports said $500 should be a safe bet and a place up in wangara Tenegah said $460. im pretty sure i ended up paying $300 flat for install because they had to "assemble" parts of the coilovers.

Assemble parts of the coilovers?

The only part of HSD's that come disassembled are the little green knobs that go on the end, to adjust the damping....they attach with a single grub screw!

The sticky "Perth Workshops" in this very subfoum would be a great place to start

http://www.perth-wrx.com/vb/mechanicals/6775-perth-workshops.html

Specifically suspension workshops I would recommend would be

Wheels World in Osborne Park (John Fowler)
Wilkinsons Suspension in Bayswater
Exleys in Willeton (Shane)
Bridgestone in Bentley (Kerry Wade)

Diy fitting then go to Wa suspension for the alignment and adjustments. coilovers are piss easy to fit if you got straight bolt up ones for your car. Planing to do my own when i get them.
