So I checked and I'm pretty sure I have a belt driven fan. I guess that explains why it's always on and when my buddy walked by my car after taking him for a spin he made a smart a** comment "your engine's over heating".

I'm just curious why on earth they would do that in the first place? I know they changed it after '04 but damn that's kinda annoying. I cant even listen to my engine roar without the fan making a lot of noise too.

Where's my piece of front bumper?

Wen I bought the car it came with the front plate installed. I don't want it there, but there's a hole behind it. Is the factory plug for that hole hiding in a cubby somewhere in the car?

It might be. Look through your car to see if you can find it.

Uh, that's why I asked if anyone knew where it might be.

My dealer put mine in the zippered leather bag where the manual is in the trunk. Maybe call your dealer and ask what they usually do with it?

Call the dealer and ask them, if they don't know, see if they will order one for you. Those things painted are about 25-30 bucks!

is the frame of that filter metal? It looks like some type of metal, if so then its probably not a K&N. I use K&N drop in filters and they are all rubber except the actual filter part.

The front tire profile seems a bit high. The largest I've had is 225/45/19 on the fronts. Typically (and what I'm back to) is 245/35/19 all around (and of course I've had the fenders rolled)

Best sources purchase after market parts?

I recently purchased my g35 03 6mt and I'm in love with it and see endless potential. I've done a lot of research and I want to start off with a hfc probably berk or fast intentions and then an exhaust system maybe hks or borla and I was wondering if anyone knew valid sites to get them at a reasonable price

You may be OK. I'm lowered on Eibach 350z pro (or is it sport?) springs in the front, and am currently running 245/34/19 tires: this is what it looks like
