can you let me know which city did you get it in? thanks
Infiniti of Peoria in Arizona. It said on the invoice 12 quarts but the manual say like 10.5 or whatever. On the invoice it also says they put in a type of conditioner. It was a complete flush I asked him like 10 times to make sure it wasn't just a drain and fill. I just couldn't believe the price when he told me. Also pull the dipstick and feel the fluid. If it feels gritty and you can see deposits in the fluid just do a drain and fill.

I'm looking at getting a new set of wheels for my 06 sedan within the next month, XXR 526's to be exact. The sizing I am looking at getting is 18x9 +25 all the way around and looking to run a 255/45 or 255/40 tire. I was wondering if this set up would work on the sedan with little to no modification? Any and all feedback is appreciated.

Thanks
Dizzle

If you plan on going low you'll probably have to roll your fenders, and maybe you should run a 225, 235/40 tire which is gonna give you a mild to no strech depending on the brand of the tire offcourse.

Yea you gotta roll your rear fenders with a 18x9 + 25, it should look pretty nice

Sorry I edited my post because I reread your post and thought you were asking that. But yeah the rears with be mounted in the oem shock location and the bucket is no longer used. They will look just like the front coilovers. The ebay ones you can use them in the bucket or around the shock from what I read.

Hi, one of my headlights went out the other night so I figured it was time to get a new bulb. A few days later, it's back on again. Since then, it's been either on or off but most recently, it is staying on. Has anyone else experienced this?

Sounds like a connection problem. Best thing to do is pull the bumper off and check all the connections first. I had this problem I would just smack the headlight and it turned on. Turned out my connection was loose.

Finally getting around to doing an interior led swap. Anyone tried the kit from DiodeDynamics? If so, which intensity package and are you satisfied?
