Just keep it maintained and it'll last a lot longer.

Do you think I need a Tune Up for my car, I have done some several mods to it like dropping 1.5 Eibach spring, 5/6 Plenum spacer and AEM intake. ??

Thank you in advance.

g35 coupe Door rattling

Hey guys,

The bose system in my g has great sound quality and I want to silence the rattling throughout the car. Specifically have any of you guys padded the doors or done anything to mute the excess sounds?

I picked up some 350z Stagg shocks and Eibach pro kit for cheap today and have a question, are the rear shocks supposed to be easily compressed by hand or does that mean they're blown? The fronts have the springs installed so I can't test those. Never dealt with any struts/shocks before so I'm basically a newbie when it comes to it. Thanks!

Tokico blues, or Bilstein are my recommendation. I love my Eibach Pro kit and Bilsteins from a 350z.

I remember reading that you sold your coilovers for the eibach and bilstein setup. Is the ride better than with the coilovers?

Bullsh!t. You can easily compress shocks straight out of the box with very little effort. You know they're blown if they don't come back up, or come back up super slowly. The job of the shock is not to keep from compressing, but rather to rebound from compression. If it rebounds at an appropriate rate its fine.
