yo_its_ok,

I believe it was you that fabricated a HID support thingy, recently. I posted not long ago I wanted some more information. If it was you, do you have pictures or even an explanation as to what exactly you had to fabricate/make?

I remember you mentioned that the HID's will have high beams also, right Hogan? If so, can't wait to see that happens in a month.

LOL!!!

I wish the brakes would've worked... I don't want to pay ~2k for the AP Racing/Stillen kit (that's if I force feed my car). Darn...

Save the calipers and rotors and do the conversion on a 4th gen.

question

Yo_its_ok,
Speaking of brakes, mine have been wearing out kind of quickly--and it makes a pretty horrible squeal when I apply them.
I read that you work at an auto shop in Flushing. I was wondering if it would be convenient to bring my car into your shop to have a leak looked at along with the brakes? I am not sure what type of fluid is leaking (power steering or brake)--but it is leaking--not that fast though. The leak is on the passenger side--there is fluid over the control arm of the passenger side and it looks a bit golden brownish--so I am not sure...
please let me know if that would be possible...I'd appreciate it...

thank you.

I know it will. Heh, just for kicks since I had the polishing bit from my Dremel Kit, I fully polished my Aluminum calipers, after wet sanding....LoL....and the 93TT Calipers that I painted in the Foliatec Black, sitting next to them. Somewhere in the shop is a cracked 300ZX rotor, which I tossed around when I wasn't too satisfied with the braking performance. Lovely huh ?
Angry youth, go figure.
Thanx for the vote of confidence.

-Peace
