Right, "frost". You'll see it next month.

Good idea about buying multiple colors and multiple stickers. They're only $1/ea, so might as well create some options.

Hmm. $1000 for a NISMO 370Z suspension and up to 1/2" drop? Granted, the 370Z is approx 430 pounds lighter than my car...

This could be a simple and less expensive alternative to coilovers in a future suspension mod.

Nismo JDM Factory Strut and Spring Kit E3110-1EA00US - Nissan 370Z Z34

FI catback successfully installed. MAN does this thing sound good coupled to the FI RHFCs.

Chris, the video you send definitely didn't do the justice. You totally have to hear it in person to really grasp how well it sounds. I'm 150% happy with my purchase and wait time. Tony also tossed in new Header > HFC gaskets as I had to make my own when I purchased from another forum member.

Congrats! 150%, eh?

It's going to be a noisy meet-up. And you still haven't PM'd back about the phone listing.

Speaking of that, I attempted to add an edited photo ( since lighting was bad) but that didn't really do justice and it was late so I had to go to sleep but I'll try to take a good picture eventually

Check this article out.. http://news.yahoo.com/nissan-recalls...151900526.html

does this mean Infiniti might have a recall for that too for 13-14 models? I would think so since I think I have experienced it several times that the indicator for the passenger seat airbag indicated occupied front passenger seat as empty...

Anyone?

I've noticed this with my '09 a few times too. It did make me worried initially.

They may or may not.

Mike, I've took my car in for a similar issue and they held it for a week. This was 2 years ago. Since the service center couldn't do anything about it, they asked me to call Infiniti Consumer Affairs and they said the sensor is based on whether a person is sitting properly in the passenger seat. That is if your butt isn't completely on the seat or legs are on sideways on the seat, etc. Some sort of algothrim that computes based on weight distribution across the seat to determine if the passenger airbag is on or off.

Hope that helps.

Yes, 2013-2014 Infiniti models are included in the recall. I read an article this AM about it. It seems that the Nissan line is more affected though. The Q50 is part of the recall. It's a software update not mechanical.

Why don't you call up Infiniti and see what they tell you based on your VIN #.

That's excellent! I was afraid the phone just didn't do it justice though when listening to both right after another it was clearly better. Definitely may be a noisy meet.

I took mine into the dealer today, took me over an hour to get out of there because everyone kept asking me about the car. Was kinda nice.

It's official, the bushing is bad. Parts won't be in until next Thursday and it's a three day repair . Picked up the sport pedals, gotta figure out how to get the brake pedal on over the top. And they're going to replace the cup holder lid with the "chrome trim" version while I have it in there. Ray's and tires go on tomorrow and it sounds like the calipers and engine bay parts will be heading back to me this weekend or early next week. Closer, getting closer.
