Nice! I got one of those USB plugs that sits almost flush with the plug, so it can be closed all the time.

Swaybars and a plenum spacer if not done already. Lots of discussion on the previous few pages of this thread.

A plenum spacer isn't going to affect emissions...

True however in CA if they catch anything during the visual inspection and there is no CARB sticker, you automatically fail if I remember correctly. I was thinking 5/16th spacer so it should be very hard to spot if I'm not mistaken?

I can't imagine a spacer would be spotted by someone unless they were looking for it. It's the same material as the plenum (aluminum), same color, and isn't super thick. Plus if you have your engine cover on they won't even see it at all.

I'd say do it. Plenty of others here have done it, and what's the worst that can happen...you have to take it off and re-test, then put it back on?

Anyone know of any sway bars that fit a 2006 G35x? I came across a couple brands but the vendor told me they won't fit the AWD versions.

Thanks, yeah, that's definitely something I'd like to do at some point to sharpen up the response. I may wait until I move, though. Where I live now, there is a huge amount of torn up road and apparently no funds to fix them. Still, it's fun as is so I can wait. I'll probably just do the 5/16 spacer to begin with for a little more oomph.
