loved mine when I had it installed.. jerk and lag from manumatic mode was killed completely, and my radio didn't have to be turned on as high and my lights were brighter as well.. (just my personal experience)..

But his model really helps for ATs.. I highly recommend his grounding kit.

I'd be surprised if every member didn't have his grounding kit. Everybody speaks so highly of it. Project was selling his so I scoped it up.

Talking about it makes me even more antzy wanting to install it now. I might as well install it after I get out of class tomo, cause I want that lag to go away lol.

replacing my lower control arm inner bushing(transverse link)

replace your G35/350z lower control arm inner bushing (tranverse link) about 75-80k miles. this is what happens when you don't.
cheap stock bushing came off of control arm which cause the metal bushing to rub..metal to metal and made it's own shape. Hopefully it's still be able to be press out.




bushing is suppose to be center of arm.



CHEAP *** STOCK BUSHING!! when your car start making a clack-clack sound when you take off... you'll know why...=0

I bought a bunch of replacement suspension parts for my bad weather car since I'm going to be driving it a lot more soon.

I hated spending money that should have gone to the G but I can't feel too bad about it because I got so much stuff!!!

I wish G parts were this cheap some times.

btw, this is for my 2002 Buick Century AKA Granny car.

2x New Tie rod ends = $25 Shipped off Ebay
2x Remanufactured Full Front Axle Assemblys = $81 Shipped off ebay
2x New Lower Control Arms with bushings and ball joint = $122 Shipped off Amazon
2x New Rear trailing arms with bushings = $45
Total: $273

now just to put this in perspective,
a pair of lower control arms on the G is around $350.
a pair of rear axles is around $150
a pair of tie rod ends is around $100
and I can't find the equivalent of a rear trailing arm, but camber arms are atleast $100..
so, $700?
