What wears coilovers out the fastest? dampening settings, height of the set up (slammed or not), road conditions, ????

No personal experience, but I've read that could be a symptom that the bulb needs to be replaced. I'm assuming you could find a bulb for cheaper than a ballast (just a guess) so I would try it first.

today it happened again. but the other light. was the pass side before now the drivers side. very confusing. also the roads are very bad where I live. and it seemed to turn off when going over a rather large bump.

Been asking a couple questions about brake pads and I've choosen to go OEM but I'm stumped I drive a 2003 sport sedan do all sedans for my year use the same pads or are there different ones for the sport?

^I hope you don't mind ridiculous amounts of brake dust and short life cycle.
The OEM pads dust sooooooo much

As for your other question, I'm fairly sure they're all the same pad.

Thanks I called the dealer they told me it was 270 for the sport I was like WTF. ill manage I have a friend who replaced his OEMs with hawk HPS, I drove them they didn't have the inital feel I was looking for and truthfully I feel they were terrible in the rain. they were on for about 3 months at the most. And (minus all this snow and rain in the NY NJ area) I usually clean my car once a week so the dust is no biggie

$270 for parts?


FYI some idiots at dealerships might think sport = brembo.

You have normal brake pads. Nissan maxima parts cost about $60-72 pending dealership. Any part store runs you $50 or less.

post it up when you get it and let us know. I'm sure with some tweaks it can fit.

^I don't think anyone has.
I also think it would look horrible.

No resonator. Only in the mid-pipe.
