[Arctc Wolf]

I'm getting BMR tubular sfc's, lca's, and adj. phr put on all atthe same time. how much did it cost 2 have u guys install it on your cars?

I am wondering the same thing right now. That is my next mod. I am gonna need some serious suspension upgrading too.

I would install them myself, you're looking at about 2-3 hours and the use of jackstands and a jack and maybe some ramps. Theyre all easy to install, you're looking at 6 bolts total and a little time [img]smile.gif[/img]

See the install university for install guides. Don't take it anywhere and pay them [img]smile.gif[/img] Its not hard!!!

Oh, but the SFC's need welding btw so you'll need to take those somewhere...

I know where 2 take the sfc's. the guy who did my exhaust said he'd tig weld them on for me for 30-50 bucks.

The LCA's Were easy as hell to install.. You need a jack with 2 jack stands, and a socket set with impact or wrenches.. Its just 1 bolt on the LCA brackets and a bolt on the rear Sub frame.. The PHR is even easier.. its just 2 bolts and your done.. Dont forget to grease the bushings.. I had my SFC welded in for 50 bucks...

The lowest price I have found for my BMR boxed SFC install is $150 from a performance/dyno shop. Other body shops wanted $300 :rolleyes: , another place wanted $200. The exhaust shops I've been too have overcharged as well, and said it's a "liability issue".

I'm gonna have to go to the performance place.

out here in cali, most of the hispanic dudes are real artists w/ stuff, but not many people go to them cuz they're not certified w/ all these labels, so they charge less to do stuff. Because they're artists and craftsmen, they do great body work and chassis stuff. It makes a difference when u have a clean welded exhaust. I liked his work, and they're perfectionists about what they do, most of the time. This is why they guy will TIG weld my sfc's on for me for cheap, and i know it'll be quality as well.

as for the lca's and phr, i don't have jack stands or a decent jack, so that's why I'm gonna go 2 my buddy's shop and see if we can put them on.

The adjustable LCAs took me 4 hours to install. They would have been far easier if they were non-adjustable but thats okay [img]smile.gif[/img] .

The panhard rod would be super simple to install as well. Hell if I can do it you can do it too :D

The thing about the PHR is that I'm getting an adjustable one, so when I get 17x11 rims, i can make sure the rear end is centered just right.
