Honestly I didn't consider the cost being that bad for something shipped express international with tracking insured straight from Japan and having Nismo on each door, it's 5HP each lol. I said the same thing about the Nismo before but I actually don't mind it now

 

Nice pieces and price there, Mike. I almost bought those when I was at my home country 2 summers ago. Holding them in my hands, I must say, the quality is top. The only thing stopped me from buying back then was the NISMO logos, they gave me this Honda vtec stickers feel. Regardless, I'm amazed you got them that price from the "gray import market", my dealership priced them at 150 USD at the time. Funny how they were the hottest accessory for the Infinity Juke in my country.
About the power folding mirrors, that is one of my G wish list item. My friend 370gt sedan has those and they are kick@$$. And the Carwings features........

 

I have to get the work done at two different shops. The wheel shop only paints or dips so.... The enhanced functionality should be interesting considering it's an additional option over and above the folding mirror option. I told the guys I would work with them to develop and document a DIY when I do the install.

What exactly are the Carwings???

if you want folding mirrors let me know, I have two sets right now plus most the fixings to build another set.

 

I guess when all you have in the design toolbox is a protractor and a ruler, this..

Here's Why The Lexus RX Was The Biggest Loser In New York

That design (or lack thereof), is not going to age well and will be relegated to "that sharp razor angles everywhere thing" in the annals of automotive design history.

Thx bro. I was planning to bring a set of mirrors over but I left them at home since I found out they will not work on the U.S spec car without modifications. Those connectors are bigger than what we have here plus extras wires. And then the camera would be on the wrong side also.

Car wings is a nav feature that connects with the mobile phone. It allows you to send and read messages on the nav screen. Plus it connects you to a live operator who give you travel guidance with real time traffic and weather update. We were driving to the beach and my friend asked the Carwings lady for a rest stop address that was not registered in the nav. When she overheard our conversation that we needed gas, she gave us the location of a gas station with cheaper gas and complimentary car wash. That's luxuryyy

 

Hey guys! I've been looking into getting Eibach Pro lowering springs for my G sedan, but as some of you know, I have a G25. Is there going to be a difference in weight or anything that will cause the springs to lower my car more/less than they would lower a 37? If anyone has any different suggestions for a 25 please let me know! Can't be too low due to craptastic Maine roads though, thanks!

 

That's an interesting question about weight difference. The G37x Sedan has a curb weight of 3822 lbs, and the G25x has a curb weight of 3751. Would 71 lbs matter to the lowering springs? Probably not. If anything, it would make your drop just a little bit more conservative.

I just wrote and deleted about four G25 questions.

 

Thanks for the quick reply! I'll probably pull the trigger on those too when I get rims then!

That's awesome, I do need Carwings it turns out!

They are bigger, the same connectors as the FX has. An option is to rebuild a set of 'vert mirrors (or have Connor do them) and go that route. Which was my initial plan that I've devited from a bit so far. May still go full circle on that route, trying to decide.

 

John, today should be a good day for you yes? A certain shipment arrival..

 

How long do you suppose this arrival will be displayed in the living room for all to admire?

 

For however long it takes between Friday afternoon and whenever my mechanic is available. Dropped the wife's car off there just a few hours ago, and he's seriously booked up. So IDK really. I'm hoping for any day next week.

Any day at all.

Most of the time, he prefers to keep the car all day, to fit work in on his time. But I'd really like to be there for this install. We'll see what happens. While there, I'm planning on showing him the bushings I customized for the rear springs, and the Vert Cradle Braces... intended for a follow-up install on those parts, and to re-check the fitment on the catback after it settles in.

Meanwhile, it's getting warmer out, so the VOSSENS go back on the car this weekend. And I can get that roofwing installed soon sometime in the next few weeks. Along with popping off the fog trim rings and replacing them with the ones I bought new and had painted this winter. And I'd like to clay & wax the car overall... that's a given. And get the leather interior treated properly with Leatherique.

So much fun stuff! I just need to be patient, is all.

 

I know exactly where you are at this point. Patience for me required a great deal of reigning in and restraining my inner feeling at the time:

LOL!

 

I know this mod seems like a waste of money to many, but thought it would match my interior pretty nicely.

 

^^ Nice eurtsx! I actually like the CF trim on the center stack. A small mod but those small details add up.
