Eibach springs arrive at 11a.
I start at 12:00P
Car is on all jacks by 12:02P (speed jack to the rescue!)
hardtop is off by 12:04P (one person removal is the suck!)
all wheels are off by 12:05P
rear struts are out by 12:10P (no softtop ftw)
front struts are out of the car by 12:20P.

I couldn't do that in the crx.. quickest remove of all struts in the CRX was 32 mins.

I love air tools and the S2000 suspension is ridiculously simple.

disassembly of the struts will have to wait until 2:00P, which will take all of 10mins cause of the spring compressor.
then reinstall should take all of 30 mins

 

I will only be impressed if beer is involved.

 

mine took 6 hours

watch out for the rear lower control arm.

 

6 hours? were you doing karoake?

 

With the soft top, what do you need to do to reach the top bolts?

 

remove the rear carpet surrounding the spare tire and manipulate around the gas filler tube.

the rear driver side is the hardest part

 

Still slow.....

 

lol, not that we could't do it faster technically, we had to do one corner at a time (apartment complex), plus that damn rear lower control arm.

Plus goofing around.

 

PITA

 

not looking forward to it when i get to it. In my WRX it usuallly took me about an hour. The biggest pain was mostly having to reach in this small pocket of space behind the rear seats to fasten the 3 nuts for each of the rear top hats. But that seems easier than the S rear by far. Nothing really gets in the way.
