nice job. :thumb:


How about a suspenision artical on what setting's are good for what set-up's, e.g. track/street, drift, drag, etc. you'd do good on this one. since every artical i see on suspenision setting's you seem to know what you are talking about.

I would but the thing is, suspension settings are more drivers preference... you can't really say "do this and do that and set this here" and what not because it all depends on the driver and how they like their car to "feel"

Hmm... maybe I could write a general guide on what settings are for and how they can be used... good idea. I'll think about it :thumb:

if you don't mind, could you PM me your VIN/Model ID? This is the kind of info I need to make sure everything I wrote is good to go.

Great write up. Your garage guide has to have the most comprehensive guides and tutorials.

Everything on my model ID seems to be accurate. Interesting things are I should of had a front lip. I did notice a while ago that the bumper looked like it had a front lip on it once and called the previous owner who has no clue about it. I bet was taken off during the bargaining process at the dealership from the original owner.

Another weird thing is that my car's destination market is "California Only" but it was originally sold at a Nissan dealership in NJ.

...or the previous owner might have sold it as a standalone... you know how much those front lips go for these days (especially Kouki ones)

The VIN guide, or the site? If it's the site, I just remembered that I changed some hosting options so the URL goes to a different directory now. I'm uploading the site as I type this... it should be up and running fine in a few minutes :thumb:

yea it was the link, works fine now, good stuff!
