Hey guys had the g for awhile, and just recently or this pass month, i feel as if the cars feeling a bit sluggish... anyone else get that? or is it just me...


also i heard having af 19's can harm the steering wheel, like as if it's too heavy or some crap? can anyone verify this thanks! just curious because i switch off cars with my bro and i love the s2k feel, but when i first got the G it felt great!

change the oil...clean out your MAF and reset the car by unplugging battery. It will feel like new again...for a little while

i have 20" rims and i'm ok. no damage or harm to the car. yeah, do a tune up...change oils, clean or replace air filter and MAF sensor. if tranny feels sluggish, do a tranny oil change too.

You don't need a tune up for 100K miles on a VQ; however, you do need a fuel system service at least every 40K... Get a reputable shop to do a proper pressurized fuel system and MAF service. You WILL feel the difference and pick up some extra MPG too

so you don't think it's necessary to do a 30,60,90k service?

not to hijack your thread, but does anyone know why my car seems to pull so strong when the first ten or fifteen minutes after start up? if i take the vsd off, the tires break loose at 4k, spin all the way through second and chirp third. after its completely warmed up, not so much.
