I goto UC Davis, so I need somewhere near there. I'm close to sac. Any suggestions for a good shop that'll install for cheap?

I don't know how cheap he is but Hotbox05 (aka Darren) with NVS is usually looking for some side work.... Try
PMing him...

You might try asking over on the NVS board- "North Valley Scions". Those guys are mostly based around Sacramento but they're close to you than we are if you're in Davis.

most parts of it are "private" and you will need to contact someone to get full access... there should be something on there that tells you about it.

You won't be able to access the site until you have attended a few meets. What work are you looking at having done I am sure Darren can help you out you can PM me or him and we can work something out.

Buying parts online I hope? Good luck, it shouldn't cost too much to install all that for labor since you're doing it all at once.

nm. i see that you got it all done already. good luck. it has potential. :-)

btw, TRD suspension is made by KYB. i think getting it from KYB will be cheaper than from toyota.
