jspec

i really think you should give it a go mate just to get your skills up and learn a thing or two, and in the end when its done, you appreciate it alot more. but if your not very confident then id say most good mechanics (doesnt necceserally have to be a performance shop) should be able to do it for you. its not a major job, so id say between 500-1000 dollers. expect to pay more if you want a top performance shop to do it for you.

do a search mate its been covered thousands of times

id recommend my mechanic in Mornington. give me a pm if you want the details.

Im close to u and will do it for a fee.... PM me for more info
