promise you...i got my used dropzones for a $100 shipped...found some illuminas, think i spent 350-400 for that....$500 in springs and struts...didnt include top mounts or anything, and i had to get them installed...let's just say $500...you can find a good set of used coilovers if you keep your eyes open...add another 100, you'll be in a better range

so someone explain this to me.exton nissan already say there going to pay for the damage to the paint due to the cover causing the damage and because it is a nissan factory part so about 9am the service manager calls me now i dont like this guy at all in the first place he is new there and we have already had it out a couple of times so he once again is claiming that i have voided the factory warranty due to having a intake and exhaust on the car and now he is trying to say that the paint repair may not be covered this is after the dealership GM told me it will be taken care of.i keep reminding this guy that the intake and exhaust was purchased at the dealer it is a NISSAN part and was installed by the dealer when i took delivery of the car.

My opinion is shifting to coilovers now. Pretty rare that I see a set on here for sale though. Gotta be ready with the dough to jump in it as soon as a set pops up.

ill just file a big **** lawsuit if he is going to come off with something so dumb... at that point he can say "well you voided your warranty on paint because you used synthetic oil" thats BS... how can you void warranty on paint because you have an intake and exhaust??? tell him your exhaust blew up and your stock airbox melted, (now be an arsehole)... i hate when ppl try to get over like that.... i think he wants to be mr tough manager so he can look good from upper above to show the bosses that he saved the "company money" money they are scamming you out of

thats the thing im trying to figure out wtf does that have to due with the paint?and besides that the GM already spoke to me and told me it will be taken care of i think this guy is just trying to screw me over some way he started messing with me when they had the transmission recall on the car in 2010 back then he tried to deny the recall due to aftermarket parts until i produced a reciept for the damn parts and labor all the a55hole has to due is look at the parts they say nismo on them clear as day.

when its done tell him to suck a dcik... and this wont be the last time he see you so if he wants to continue to be an **** then you will take it far past his general manager because its obvious he cant do his job or he is not aware on how to handle situations so you will complain until they find somebody suitable for the position

Irish knew his **** about the Max. Sooner knew enough, but far less than he thought he did. Or better said, his knowledge was overshadowed by his douchbaggery.

They're both only 36.

When you go out to work on your car, be sure to take off your apron between laundry and dinner.
