Quote: 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.
thats a good plan, i got mine from a vendor on this site, it was super easy to install and you definitely notice extra power in the lower to midrange. If it snows where you are get the copper iso-thermal, if not i'd get the iso-thermal without copper.

Hmm. I live in Georgia, so for most of the year it is warm, but we do usually get a few days of snow each year. And we'll usually see a few days where the temperature gets down into teens (lowest I ever remember was zero, once). Does that justify getting the copper one?

A Hotchkis was just testfitted and they say it works.

There's a local guy who has some stock 2007 350Z suspension parts for sale. Shocks, struts, springs, etc. Would any of this fit my 2006 X sedan? Worth it? He says they have 17-18k miles on them, and I have 83k miles on my stock suspension.

Hey everyone, there's now a group buy on the Hotchkis sway bars that fit the 03-06 G35x! This is the only bar that will fit, and the price is good!

Staggered wheels on an X
I have a 05 sedan G35x and looking for rims. I didnt know if since it is AWD if staggered rims where a good Idea? Thanks

Most guys with AWD dont do staggered wheels, it makes the AWD kind of trippy. However, if I remember correctly, there were a couple members who did stagger the wheels on their X's. I'm sure someone else wil chime in with a more informative answer.

If the diameters are the same or very close, you shouldn't run into any issues.
