I am deployed and plan on having a clutch and fly installed at my local Infiniti or Nissan dealership when I get back home. I have been quoted $550 from Nissan and I am still waiting on Infiniti to get back with me.

My only concern is if my car will have any troubles getting on the lift? It's not slammed by any means, (Eibach pro-kit, lip and sides) but do have to do the phone book trick to get a jack under her.

I know there is only one way to find out, but what are your opinions? Just curious for the time being so let me know what you think.

 

U should be ok depending on the lift they use..

 

I know my local Infiniti dealership has the swing in/out lifts similar to these. Can't remember for the life of me which one though...

 

My Nissan dealership has a lift designed for the GT-R, that's what they always use for SLICK. Screw Infiniti, Nissan gave you the first response that's where you should go and they charge 30% less! Get home safe!

^ Appreciate it! I know all about Nissan charging less. I always get parts from them over Infiniti. The only reason I would like to here what Infiniti has to offer is last time they only charged me $500 for my Stillen headers install. I couldn't believe it!

I sent both service reps an email regarding my cars stance w/ pics. Want to get it scheduled as I plan to drop it off as soon as I can. Hopefully they say no worries!

I can do the work myself, but just like the headers I have the $ and dont feel like messing with it. (I worked for Lexus as a tech before I enlisted) I'd rather drop it off and pick it up that day or the day after and spend that time with my wife and getting back into the swing of things.

I need to put some break in miles before I bolt on this bad boy!

 

my infiniti dealer refused to do work on my car when i inquired with them. my cars bout as low as OPs. wat kind of lift do the nissan dealers use?

 

Do you go to the nissan dealership in Valencia?

 

I work at an infiniti dealer. when i lift lowered vehicles i use a floor jack to get the arms under then adjust the feet to clear the side skirts. depending on the lift will tell the tale, but any competent tech should know how to rack one. if not, they have no business working on your car.

 

^floor jack from the sides? wat about those with side skirts?

 

A low profile jack will easily get under there, not sure if dealers have those though. My car looks to be about the same height and dealerships don't have a problem with mine.

 

i guess its a bit more lower for those with ings sides. i cant even slide the oem jack under

 

Yes krewboy, I've been going there since they serviced my '92 Nissan Z. Ask for Sam, he's the service righter and a long time friend of mine. Tell him Gary with the blue G35 sent you!

I'm dropped on sportlines and have to put down 2x4s to get mine on the lift lol

 

jack it up from the read diff. it doesn't take much. if that doesn't work drive it up on some 2x4's. like i said if you can't figure out how to rack a lowered car, you have no business working on them.

 

Most dealers won't use 2x4s to accomadate customers with lowered cars . They jus refuse the work to prevent damaging the car n being liable
