IT50VR Member 11 Member For: 15y 3m 16d Posted 05/11/15 07:23 AM Share Posted 05/11/15 07:23 AM Hey guys im chasing a workshop in sydney that can do my valve springs on a xr6t FG. Most shops are quoting 600 - 700 just for labor. Is this the going rate or can someone else do it cheaper? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They earn their money. Its not like a 186 holden! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most places are around the $1000+-100 mark for Springs and labour Edited 05/11/15 09:18 AM by bamk2f6tornado Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
