I went with the Hotchkis. Night and day difference on the X.

 

Awesome. it feels pretty great now so for that dramatic of a difference it must be pretty incredible.

 

+1 On that.

Sways have made the most impact to my experience than ANY other mod I've made. Day-to-day, mile-after-mile...

I didn't know that was going to be the case before they were installed. It was just recommended on the forum here that I do it.

Okay great. Any specific site that typically has deals on them? What is the average price to pay for those?

 

Yup, I was saying assuming you're doing the set

 

I was a total noob at the time...even more so than now, so I got mine from Hotchkis via Amazon.

You might, as I should have done, check with some of our supporting vendors. You might get a better price, and if it's the same price at least you're supporting them as they support our addiction.

(Now that I think of it, our vendors are pushers!!! LOL)

Thanks that is extremely helpful. I am a n00b myself. This is my first performance oriented car. Yay for a long line of 4cyl.

 

I finally listened to all who recommended upgrading the sway bars on the X. I didn't want to spring for aftermarkets so I picked up a rear sway bar off of a 370z. I'm glad I listened. The car is much more stable on hard turns. I couldn't imagine how much better both aftermarket sways would be.

 

Is removal of OEM intakes a pain? Any pics/DIY for access to turn signals from under the hood?

I ask because I've really wanted to install switchback turn signals, but kept delaying since going through wheel well seems pretty tough, and neighbors will yell at me if I take a wheel off...

 

Hotchkis Sway Bars for the X are by far the cheapest on TireRack. Free shipping too, received mine in two days.

Hotchkis F&R Sway Bars

 

Just got the car back from the dealer. They spent 8.1 hours in labor removing various squeaks, buzz and rattles from all over the car by torquing down bolts, using felt strips and foam insulation. They worked on the center console, radio, nav, glove box, driver window and regulator, rear parcel shelf/subwoofer/rear seats, passenger ac dash vent, rear view mirror cover. Add 1 more hour to replace the AC filter under warranty and do the AC treatment under warranty due to odor from the AC. 9.1 hours in labor plus filter and treatment. Glad Infiniti picked up the tab on everything including the loaner and tolls. Nice to have the car back.

Also had the front windshield tinted for $25 (AS1 strip only - top part of windshield) by the same folks who did the car originally for the dealer. Used the same charcoal Llumar film to ensure all the windows match.

 

The R2C intake manual includes instructions on how to remove it, I don't have it handy but a quick search I'm sure will find it. It's pretty straight forward and should take a few minutes per side.


Edit: here's the link. Infiniti G37 R2C installation instruction how to.

 

THANKS (bookmarked)

Will be trying this very soon. Assuming you swapped your bulbs this way?

 

Yes, I had to mount the resistor's for my V3 Triton's, this made it easy to find a mounting place.

 

Just added 5 turns to each corner on my Coil's. Dropped off at the alignment shop. Lets see how it rides this afternoon. Hopefully no more scraping on the damn Speed Bumps!
