A quarter past stripped
Yeah, I am too. A quarter of an inch difference will not make much of an effect on the speedometer. I was just saying if you go to large or to small the variance grows exponentially. I figured you were thinking about doing larger tires in order to fill fender gaps Forgive me if I assumed wrong.

For LED Fogs, has anyone had this in mind?
Cree FOG DRL KIT H8 Pack OF 2 LED Bulbs 10W 6000K JDM XML T6 1200 Lumen Light | eBay
Obviously it is not going to be as bright as HID but would this have an advantage over the stock halogen bulb in terms of lumen output? I have seen Nokya rebrand these bulbs.

They would be a significant downgrade from your factory lighting

I have the tendency to throw money away; however, out of the selection of H8 LED fogs you have in stock. What would you recommend that will have a better light/lumen output over the stock halogens? I'm currently using Nokya's 2500K H8 but I may want to switch over Cool White LED.

So a few of you know I just purchased a 2010 37S 6mt with 48k miles this past weekend. Well, I took it to the dealership today to get all checked out, make sure there were no serious issues that I needed to take care of....
And left it there while they put a brand new transmission in under warranty. Gave me a loaner and said it' ll be ready friday morning.

Oh look at that... Lego and I are both concerned. LOL
IIRC, Mik3G37S had the transmission on his 2013 6MT Sedan replaced under warranty just four months ago.

Well I heard a popping/clunking noise coming from when I throttled/released. Nothing too alarming but I wanted to get it checked. They said the noise was coming from inside the gearbox, and they didn't want to crack it open to find what was wrong with it, so they are replacing it.
The tech said he did some research on the history of maintenance and it was brought in for the same noise at 18k miles but the service department couldn't duplicate the noise.
I'm definitely not arguing as it gives me a clean slate to do my own maintenance. The tech also said he heard a bit of grinding. Hopefully they are replacing the clutch as well. I will give them a call in the morning. I was in a rush to get out today.

Did the noise occur when you released clutch pedal and when it was in Neutral?
Funny thing is about my transmission being replaced, It was something I wanted to bring up at next visit at the dealer but happened to leave it there before the April meet up for noisy power steering pump to be replaced under warranty(which they did) but they also told me they were gonna replace the transmission under warranty without me even mentioning a thing about it, so I was happy, but didn't get the whole clutch + flywheel package with it. Still a happy camper though.
