Nice spacers Kensan. One of the things I like about my ZL1 is that the wheels are set out even with the body.

hi mr.alcheng- nice picts. wow, that pink is ... wow, pink. :icon17:

thanks, i do hope i can figure this winter dd nonsense out soon as it is draining me (well, not really. :icon17: )

i test drove the MS3 today (2nd time) and compared to the first test drive 3yrs ago, it felt so frikken... wierd(?). it's like a euro car-ish but it's not. it's like a sports car but it's definitely too FWD and imho it felt slow...might have something to do with the 92F humid weather today :rolleyes:. it's like a puddling/spike-rocket but it twists my arm a lot when it spikes.. i HATE torque steer. it's like it's telling me im now too old for this shitt? like i out grown it. :facepalm: it was not a very friendly test drive. the sales guy was very polite though. :tup: he kept asking about my 370Z than asking wat i thought about the MS3. :bowrofl:

he asked only once if i really felt like buying the car today. i said 'sorry, no, it's not how i remembered this car and as of today i dont want it...'

unless im going to go cheap with the 2012 honda fit sport 5MT, i think i might look at new TSX's. it's nearly impossible to locate a MT one in my area though..

Hi I'm Octo ho. I have kids now and don't work. Could you fill my womb up with as many kids as possible that I won't be able to support either? We will become famous and actual hard working people will feel sorry for my lazy azzz and give me millions, Then I'll waste it all and become a nude dancer and show off my jumbo stretch marks for drunk guys. Hi I'm Octo ho.

:shakes head:

A mechanic have all the necessary equipment in the shop and should take no more than 2 hours to finish the installation...

Either the mechanic is a dumba$$:shakes head: thus cost him 5+ hours to install a set of spring or he thinks you are... but obviously Ms.Pint is NOT... :tup:

Put it up on 4 jackstands, took off the bumper, the undertray, all 4 wheels. Rebuilt the piston seal / dust boot stuff in the rear calipers, replaced the rear rotors, put some new heat shield thingies behind the front pads, flushed some new brake fluid through the whole system, cleaned and re-oiled the K&N air filters, replaced PCV valves, cleaned MAFs, reset ECU, reset idle air volume, changed oil and filter.

Last weekend was the front caliper rebuild and rotors, new front bearings, new tie rod ends.

Needs a visit to an alignment shop next week :P

Mr.kenchan, this is the problem of some of the Japanese and Korean car, they try to make their product feels like Euro product... but it turns out it feels very artificial.... to make things worse, people can feel characters are artificial... why can't they just better the brand's original character instead of letting people feel they are trying to do something which they are not capable of.....??? :shakes head: :shakes head:

:iagree: Mr.kenchan... I did respect Mazda for a while when they have the MP3 came out many years ago... was amazed by how they tuned a below average small size into a fun to drive fun-car.

Until recent generation of MS3 and Mazda 6 it looks like they are running out of idea and to make things worse they stamp their whole fleet with that fcuking 'happy face :icon17:'

:icon14: :wtf2:

Oh well.... I am glad I choose Nissan :tup: :tup:

Good morning, Mr. Alchemy!!!

Yard work, shopping, picture frame hunting (very specific types), Juke detailing and taking Colin and Brianna (4 weeks until grandpa-ville) out to dinner -- this is my future today.
