One big question, Do I need to rent spring compressors? If I do not, can someone please give me a quick write-up on how to do it safely without using them? I remember seeing a reply from Quik stating you do not need to use them, but then I searched all day today and can only find a...

So the LS has been running fantastic for a while now, just started to hear the ol' brake squeak/late grind, so time for a brake job! After a couple beers and 40 minutes of wrestling with the fantastically designed lug nuts, I finally got the wheels off..... only to discover the dread that...

My cousin said he was up at pep boys looking to buy some silverstars when the cashier told him to look online for these non-ballast requiring HID's(from my observations they are xenons). Has anyone used/heard of anyone using these...

Ok so last night I was at a party and ran into a kid I haven't talked to in YEARS, find out he lives down the street from me now AND used to have an LS. So we start talking and he says he has some 17's in his basement(I figured they were the 17's from the 03), end up going there this morning to...

Finally installed my canuck motorsports springs(1.6") last week, never got around to snappin some pics, here's a link. 350z + stage 2 srt-4 are my buddies. No rubbing, it actually makes the ugly ass wheels look halfway decent. I was surprised with how it rides, i thought it was going to be...

I just ordered springs, CM 1.6" drop. Should be here by the weekend I'll have pics. Anyone from IL have a good painter I could go to(someone relatively inexpensive) I'm just looking to have my mclaren grille + bumper trim painted.

I have recently purchased up the remaining lot of the CDC wheels. I have 9 wheels for the taking, they are 17" only. I can do $500 shipped for 4 and one lucky person can have a full size spare for $600(5 wheels). I will be putting these on eBay after about 30 days, so get at me.

Finally finished my brakes/rotors about an hour ago, got off work early so I decided to tackle it, and I changed the fuel filter. Snapped a couple pics. It was raining here so my car was pretty dirty, once it clears up I plan on clay barring it + a nice detail. There's a few...

I have a question for someone that KNOWS 100% what they are talking about. I was going to just do this but I don't want to mess anything up as I know this could go wrong pretty easy. I have attached pictures of what I think would be a good place to spray the seafoam I just got, I already did...

So I've been searching all morning here at work for 2 ports for the box I'm building for my type-r's. I'm getting sick of sealed weakness, so I'm experimenting with ported boxes. I can't find anywhere that makes ports in this dimension(3" diameter x 9.9" length). Any suggestions? I'm...

So it's about time for new brakes, I'm going to be ordering them tonight. I found some nice slotted rotors from rotorworks, I don't need rotors as mine are still in great condition, but I really want the look + added cooling. I already ordered the pads, ordering the rotors tonight. My main...

So my 01 LS is going in for service, new tires and body repair on Monday the 19th, right now it's misfiring, I'm getting check engine + transmission lights, real bad gas mileage(around 10-11), and of course the notorious hesitation(purchasing the xcal2 once I get the car back from the...
