5th gen Off Topic Thread (Official Ghustle thread v1)
so im paying the gas prices like them so yea... ill take the free medical lol... i dont mind paying more tax for free medical... the bump would be something most of us probebly dont even pay attn to lol, IMO its just something else we can complain about so we will lol... im greedy but im not that greedy i dont mind paying a tad extra to make this world a better place (if in fact the people im dealing with isnt greedy to only be thinking of profiting from my kindness)... and i guess we are talking about the gobment so nvmd 

wanna know whats my biggest hope for the XYZ coils... the way the front ones are made... most manufactures now use this style in making the coils..
Pause the vid at :25 seconds... see how the spring doesnt actually touch the top perch anymore like they use to.
EDIT: better yet dont even play the vid, just look at the screen shot embedded and you can see it
(and some XYZ models seem to still use this older way to make coils which IMO was the main reasons you always had the small "clunk" sound on certain turns)

EDIT x2 now looking on the 2nd pic it would seem as if all of them are made like that.. i know this is a new way K-sport started making their coilovers to avoid the recalls they use to accure about the noise it would make.... YESSSS!!!

i know how you feel.. my 5.5 put me through hell, it was never a good easy going month.. always something... man i tell people that im gonna just throw the maxima in the "high maintenance" type of car class once u start to mod em lol
In the end, it pays off when I smile ear to ear driving down the road hearing my exhaust, hopping around in my stiff suspension, racecar cabin shake, and the compliments and stares I get from the general public.
I know the way I've modded my car has expedited some parts to wear faster but give me a break!

You're getting closer and closer to 200k. You've got to expect maintenance. When you've only owned one or two high mileage cars for any extended period of life, one tends to blame the model or manufacturer. It's a machine. It breaks down. A grand or two in repairs and maintenance wouldn't seem so bad if you hadn't spend 3 or 4 or 5 grand in mods. Perspective, buddy.

Like always, you are right.
. On the bright side, at least I am slowly replacing parts and don't have a monthly car payment!
Anyone else notice how people that really can't enjoy things have them in spades?
i.e., old men driving sports cars, or gay men covered in hot girls.
That **** makes me as mad as a midget with a yoyo >:/

It's all good dun need ya anyways. I love this Country. Every place has it's flaws, sure, but the good things here are countless.
And where I live (Kitchener/Southwestern Ontario) is incredible, I have everything within an hour or two of me, Lakes, rivers, wildlife, beaches, camping, hunting, woods, mountains, flatland, country, agriculture, industrial, big city. Literally everything within 1-2 hours. Most of the stuff is more like around the corner.
We get hosed for taxes here, it's no secret, it's just aweful. Add to that that the cost of living, gas, items, etc is on average 20-40% higher than in the states and it sucks.
BUT, we do good, I mean look at the economic shenanigans, we were on our game still during that and have bounced back incredibly well. On the whole it's really an amazing place.
