Coilovers and CF Hood

Well since the search function isnt working for me...

There are/were 2 companies that make CF Hoods for the Maxima...one being ViS and then there was another that I cant remember...can someone make a comparison between the 2 with the usual comments about quality

also

Does anyone have a preference between Cattman's New Coilovers and the JIC's?

Thanks

I belive KVD was the other company. But check with Irvin78 I think he got the other hood..

I haven't ridden with the Cattman. I just installed the Jic's are they are awesome. I would definitely recommend those to anyone. The quality of that kit if next to none.. Made in Japan

Havnt riden on JIC but am planning on getting a set later on this year

As for the cobalt guages, those are sick. Electrical guages are the way to go Woo Cho espeically if the guages are inside your ride. ESPECIALLY the oil pressure, if that leaks while your driving well.......its not goona be pretty. Thats why people mount them outside. Hot oil spraying all over the inside of the car isnt gonna be too fun, oil and nitrous guages are the two you never want to get mechanical and mount them inside.
