+1 for refusing caliper covers. I wince every time I see them.

I'd go with the Akebono's if you can swing it. Send Z1Motorsports a PM, they should be able to get you taken care of

Thanks!

It looks unfinished and that bugs me.

I've read a few posts on here about getting G37 sport brakes? I assume they mean these?

Would this G37 brake setup fit on my 03 G35 coupe? If this doesn't work, could I get some suggestions thrown my way?

Also, I refuse to put any kind of fake plastic/metal whatever cover, or paint onto my G, so please don't suggest them.

Thanks!
my man lol..not only does he refuse to rice his car out but then he tells everyone else not even to recommend it either.. atta boy

Need help with the market place

I don't know who to talk to or where to go. But I can't post in the market place.
It says I need a handwritten signature and date in the picture which I have provided. I tried multiple times with multiple different pictures and it still won't let me to that reason only.

Been here since '07 and have enough posts, shouldn't be restricted!

If you're trying to sell anything on our Marketplace you do need to post a pic of what you're selling which needs to include a written note with your name on it. Include those two things and you'll be able to post on the Marketplace!

I'm using these pictures, The signed paper pic was like my 4th or 5th take. That is the best pic I can take without distance blurring out my handwritten note.

I found the problem. The red font on the right side is just a note that says you need a hand written paper. I treated as a requirement that i didn't fulfill to post.

Thank yall for helping though.

Hey guys, quick question regarding The OEM 19's and lug nuts. Which style of lugs can I use safely? I had the OEM lugs on the car before, and a friend have me a set of extended "tuner" lugs for free. They have the conical style seat, and it appears my oem ones are the ball style. Which should I use? Are one or the other unsafe with these wheels?

OEM are not ball style lug nuts, they're conical. Typically tuner lug nuts don't fit OEM wheels anyway. Most of the time the seats are too skinny to properly engage OEM wheels. You can try though.

My friend has a G and is confused about the ride height. He has 20" rims on it and swears that it is lowered. How can I prove to him that it isn't?

You can fight him to the death thus proving you're the alpha male of the pack. Then you'll be right

If you need any other relationship advice let us know.

On a level ground, measure the height of the wheel arches at the highest point (center of the wheel), compare that to values found in FSM below.

Any of you fools know the biggest spacer I can use without extending the lugs?

I have the 20mm/front 25mm/rear setup but I want them pushed out just a bit more. My buddy has some 5mm and 8mm spacers he took off his MS3. So, I'm thinkin I'll put his behind my Ichiba V2s, but will the lug be long enough to secure the V2 spacer with the 5 or 8mm spacer behind it?

Also, would that mess with the hubcentric-ness of the ichibas?

Yeah, a spacer Inception doesn't sound like a good idea. Just get a pair of 30mm spacers and move your 25mm to the front.
