Now that I'm working in the NE I'm looking for a place that can install my suspension (TRD Springs & Bilstein Shocks) and align it. The MR2 has ABS sensors that are easy to break and expensive to replace so I'm looking for a competent shop and not too worried about price. Anyone.....

have you looked into Speedtech? I'm sure there are alot of other shops that could do this install for you, considering its the NE.. but off the top of my head, Speedtech comes to mind.

Even with abs its still a pretty easy task to accomplish. I was able to complete my four corners in a weekend. But if you are dead set on a shop I would call the guys at speedtech.

I would talk to MR2mike. He does all the installs for the mr2 community.

His rates are only $10 an hour and he's very good. I would expect a spring job on an mr2 would cost in the neighborhood of $25.

He charged me $20 and a little ceasars pizza.

haha. we were just joking around. Mike knows his mr2's and his car is probably one of the nicest ones around.

p.s we were joking about him doing work. He knows how to do it, but RARELY takes jobs.

Coming from the milk crate rida. The last time I saw something with square wheels ripping it up, I was watching your dad commute to work on his bike

I like to pick and choose jobs. After my engine swap from MCS and the new coil overs, I just don't feel like taking other jobs.
