How much are coilovers for a Liberty? I have a 04 Liberty GT and looking at getting it lowered, not as low as the op but just dropped a bit and a bit better handling.

Whats the best way to go?? and around how much would I be looking at?

Cheers

I'm with you WRXTASY, Wilkinsen did a mash job of my CUSCO camber tops, let's use a screw driver and hammer to move the camber top around!
Definately use Wheels World for the alignment.
Exactly the same screw driver hatchet job done to my mates car. Large chunks of aluminium missing from where the screwdriver slipped trying to slide the strut top adjustable plates.

Wilkinsons = Shit house, piss poor alignment tools and technique.

YOUZ Have been warned

400 is a good deal if it includes alignment + weight balancing on all four corners.. (a bargain in fact).. Wheel alignment alone will cost u 80-100..

You might wanna try Wikinson's .. heard lots of recommendations from tuners on the track.. Most of them use wikinson's ..

You sure u got that price right ??

From memory they wanted 2hr labour per corner to do remove my disc brakes for machining and refit + additional cost of machining on top ..

Something like 400 Labour + 120 Machining + 270 EBC greens pads..
All up.. 790 for a simple brake job.. !!!

LOL maybe they don't like me.. or Hondas are shockingly hard to work on .. All the best mate...

Cypher does good work, often at a price.. If you can afford, or if they start reducing labour charges, they are the ones to go to.

Speak to Zacka or Gavin over there.. they basically run the show..

I had my headers fitted there before, they did an awesome job on the welds.. amazing.. no crappy welding there.. but all up.. cost me $300+ for header and cat fitment..

Cheers

My self and a fellow member had a crack at it last night, Easy we got the back ones in no problem.......front left was simple then we came to the right side.. ONE FU**** BOLT WOULD NOT UNDO.... we tried for about 3 hours on this one bolt but it finally beat us so i have left the rears in and put the stock struts in the font until i can get it to a garage next week... if anyone has any ideas shoot. we tried endless amounts of breaker bars crc wd-40 everything..

cheers nick
