I think when we have that detail meet with Mackie, I will take the clay bar people to make it easier for him. Clay barring is really simple, just gotta follow a couple rules. I first got one this summer when someone wrote on my window with those car paint things and the rain made it get on my paint. Only the clay could take it off, but I still find blue specks every now and then that I missed.

Yes you can see the glass reflection cause its so amazing. JK but with black paint it's even more amazing, blue also. White not so much reflection boo. But it's ok.
Still looking for a Nissan Tech who has access to a Consult-II system, or is good at diagnosing SRS for me for some beers and food hehe. I've tried to mess with it a few times but it doesn't seem to be doing anything. It's starting to make me angry.

How come you're not cleaning her yourself? Or are you looking for a mobile detailer. Depending on where you're at, I know a few DFW Metroplex detailers.
Jason/Chris can you see what happened to the thread I made in Private Classified/Wheels section about a trade? I think it got deleted or something.

It's better too much then too little, I use a lot also. But then I have like a whole gallon of my quick detail spray. I use it really fast also hehe. The aftermath is amazing, after your hands done fallen off at least, the metallic in the paint pops out like an sore eye. Paint butter smooth like a babys ***. I plan on doing it again after I hit one year which is sometime April or so (I'll be doing it about once a year, polishing that is).

Also, as far as the SRS light goes, there's no fix. We, those of us blessed to have that **** blinking at us at all times, just live with it. The only solution is replacing the components (but then you have to find what's messed up).

Let's see if jason can answer this one.

We have the "anti-shout" plug-in, so all caps don't work here.

oh ya, and coilover install is super easy. like allstar said, its just swap of assemblies...
But...coilovers take super long, because:
you install them, lower the car......check the height? if its not low enough.
Then you have to relift the car, jackstands and all...remove wheel, remove lower spindle and swaybar endlink, then turn the lower coilover "body" spinning it up or down, to adjust the height of the car.
then reinstall everything. downjack the car, check the height...if its not where you want it....
repeat above all over again.
so keep in mind this can take a while. then not to mention a few months down the road with the springs on the coilovers settle, you man need to raise her again a few turns.

Quit worrying about stuff you don't have and get your camber kit installed and alignment done, Jason. Also, look into getting some sticky tires (street or race tires) sometime soon. Are you coming out to the dyno day, by any chance?

Dynos are pain in the *** for me, i have to remove the rear diffuser. Bah, I need to get a nice Dynojet reading for my car before my next set of upgrades. And your right about getting the camber fixed. I need to remove the spacer and install the camber asap
