I'm thinking of lowering my car with Eibach Pro-Kit springs and i was curious if anyone knows if you need the camber kit with it? Its a fairly conservative drop and I'm on OEM sport 18's with red shocks (all of which got replaced about 2 months ago)

Time to dispel some myths!

And guess what, they fit 100% as good as OEM. The only thing is the little "clip" part is plastic instead of metal, but it still snaps in with no problem.

Just note that these aren't reflective on the inside.
They send a couple of 194 LEDs (4 small LEDs per each fixture) in hyper-white. They work well, but I'll be running amber LEDs instead, not big into the white lights in clear corner look, kinda rice for my taste.

Anyway, long story short, these work great, look a lot better than tinted OEM amber ones, and only cost $25

I'm on a hunt for two metal clips that hold the bottom of the grille in to the bumper. I can't find a reasonable picture, nor can I find any kind of reference.

They look like double-sided razors with jagged edges on the inside of them to hold to the grille.

Any ideas?

How's the increase in hp on the underdrive/alter./water pump pulley kit?

Also stupid question, Do the 03 sedans have springmounts?

As far as I know pulleys are minimal gains on these cars.

Correct pulleys offer minimal gains if any, not worth it IMO. If you replace your crank pulley get one that is serves as a harmonic balancer (meaning don't get the UR crank pulley). Lots of info on my350z on this.

G35 sedan w/ too much money in mods
Can you alter rear toe settings through the rear camber arms? They have a "toe bolt" looking bolt that holds them to the frame so I was curious............
