Without knowing more, I'm stumped.

I have a chance to buy a cosworth plenum off a twin turbo that "broke", would you guys recommend buying it at all, and if so, what would be a good price to get it at assuming its in fully functional good condition? How do I test it out to make sure it works fine, have my mechanic test it?

SO - my husband changed the spark plugs and the engine air filter (which was pretty dirty) on my "new" 2004 g35, reverse a couple wires, took it around the block, and never ran it again till we figured out the problem the next day and he fixed it. Next day he drove it fo 15 minutes, it was fine, but SES light came on. One Autozone cleared it (I don't have the code), but 10 minutes later it was back on. The next Autozone printed P0300 and cleared it. The car sat in the garage a day and a half, and I drove it briefly, then next day for 30 minutes, parked it and after 5 min. more of driving SES light, and Autozone said P-0430. I asked them to clear it. I just did some "running around" today, in-town stuff, to about 4 places, and light is off. Runs great, not sure about exhaust smell, haven't checked it myself, and didn't "sniff" it before to compare! Friend said he didn't smell anything unusual (but he knew I was worried about the cat.) SO...anyone think this is cuz of the filter being changed to a new one, and if so, what could we do about it? Will the car adjust the a/f ratio on its own if it's off, or will it need serviced? (Also, where the heck is the jack supposed to go with a full size spare on this thing? We ordered the circular replacement took kit, which fits fine, aside from the jack). Thanks so much!

^LOL about the jack! There are quite a few threads complaining about it, so you're not alone in your frustrations. You should be able to find some useful info doing a little searching.
I'd be more help but I don't have a full size spare (oh, and also I'm lazy as hell )

As for your trouble code issue, keep in mind that clearing codes and reseting the ECU are not the same thing.
You might try disconnecting the negative battery cable overnight. That will clear any "learned" values from the computer and make it relearn all the variables, which may have changed with your plug/filter change.

Thanks, re: ECU and re-learn info! (No, I didn't find the other threads, but will check again).

I went to Nismo Fest today and went on the Twisted Sister ride with team CENTEXVQ, Strictly G's and others in my group through the hill country outside of San Antonio TX and it was the most challenging drive I have ever had and it was great, only one thing. I was the only one that when I hit some good dips my ride would nail the rubber bump stops and or my suspension would bottom out. So when we stopped to stretch are legs halfway through I asked Blue Dream for some advice on what to do and he gave me the idea to adjust my ARK coilovers to a stiffer setting so I was on 4 and I clicked both of my front coils 5 more clicks. My handling got more responsive but when I hit the dips bamm. What do I need to do to make my coils not bottom out???

What are your spring rates? They may not be stiff enough...

I don't know I got them from a guy on g37 he was putting his car back to stock and he said that ARK installed them on his ride for him and he didn't ever drive it that hard to make it do that. My club goes on these runs a few times a year and I would hate to have to sit out. are my spring not stiff enough or is my shock allowing to much travel or is there a way to adjust them other then the top clicker?
