Sorry! Didn't even see this!

I will be doing a bit more detail work tonight, namely white lettering on the tires!
Tomorrow night I will give it all a test fit to the Volks and see how we go!

Washing vs detailing. Completely different. Like I said doubt your nismo is cleaner or more polished than mine. Takes 10 min to wash the dust off mine as its sealed and waxed. If it takes hours to WASH something is wrong.

Good for you, that's the spirit, have yourself a cookie. That was another member that you were debating with, I was agreeing with him.

I've heard solid can be bad with vibrations. Poly is middle-road.

Ah yeah - I'm not too worried. Maybe a bit more vibration at idle but who cares at WOT. I've heard the only one you DEFINITELY don't want to go with is solid transmission mount. Immediately makes the car undriveable on the road.

Haha yeah it kind of died down a bit. Installed the XYZ a few weeks ago. Going to do solid compression arm bushings, solid diff bushings, solid engine bushings and try to figure out why my VDC and SLIP lights are on (annoying but not that important).

Might pick up Win Turbo from the shop that owns it. The idea has been kicking around in my head.
