Talking need a cars 101 class lol ok here we go..

Ok lovin my new G35... well used G35... but new to me. so couple questions...

1) i want to mod my car but i can't because i bought the warranty for my car so im thinking of taking it in to a shop and letting them fix anything that may be wrong with it so i feel like i used the warranty that i bought with the car then go mod crazy and let the warranty get voided. is that possible?

2) if all goes well and i get number 1 taken care of i want to lower my car.. so i was thinking about gettin eibach lowering springs, but will that be good here in dallas, the reason why im asking here is because you know the way the roads are here in dallas some roads really suck and im looking for you all to hopefully guide into what i should get and where i get get them installed because i dont think i can do it by myself (i was happy just installing the drop in K&N air filter myself lol i know im a newb its all good)

3) some cars i see ont he streets especially G35s when they turn they dont lean like my stock car does, how do i make that happen? where can i go locally for that.

thanks for you alls help sorry for the newb questions i rather talk to local people then on the other parts of the forums ..

oh one more thing i am gonna change out the bulbs by myself anyone know a good Jack for my car that i can buy? lol i think thats about all i can do by myself wish i could do more lol

sorry guys dont laugh haha thanks in advance for help

2. This car gets daily driven at this height. You will have NO problems with a spring drop. You can check w/ Kustomz Unlimited...my teammates shop. http://www.kustomzunltdinc.com/main/



3. You can get some stiffer sway bars to reduce body roll. An inexpensive option are the Top Speed Sway Bars...i can get you a set if you're interested.

There are a lot of things you can do without voiding your warranty.

I have a cold air intake, JWT clutch and flywheel, and a top speed Y pipe. All of which were on the car at the dealership when it went in for warranty. Talk to Danny at Crest, they are mod friendly.

Now of course if you go up there with a Greddy turbo kit and a blown motor that will be a different story.

Oh well then in that case your more than likely screwed.

Those extended warranty companies will do anything to get out of paying for repairs.

Yeah I've been hearing that I'm thinkin about calling them and see what I can do to get out of it or see if I can get my car worked on if a shop finds parts that need to be repaired because of normal wear and tear
