What did you do to your FX / QX70 today?

Well, so far, after one day, it's tracking perfect. The rear camber is slightly off (as you can see) but really not enough to worry about imo (although I have something in the works to hopefully produce an adjustable lower control arm). I don't think the drop is huge personally.

I probably will take it in to have the alignment checked but I suspect it's going to end up being fine except for camber in the rear.

Maybe it's load, but looks more than the 1" or so drop advertised.. looks good.
 
Installed my ARP wheel studs and 20mm spacers on the rears. The Subaru spec ARP studs do indeed fit under the center caps without trimming (with the spacers installed) but they are too long to thread into their homes without removing the hub. You win some, you lose some...
I like the 20's in the back and the staggered look, but nothing in the front is a little too tucked for my taste. I think I'll either try 10s up front or move the 20s to the front and do 25s in the back. Not sure yet. I definitely prefer staggered track widths to the herra frush look.
Thoughts?

I finally got some time to work on the FX this weekend. Installed 3K yellow hid fog lights. Got some headrest dvd players from an Infiniti QX56. The headrest color did not match; however, I got a guy to reupholstered the headrest to match my black interior with the brown french stitching. I can't wait to get the headrests back to install in the FX!!!
 
hmm today around 3:50am i was going to work ..then i see a deer:eek.:...swerved out the way then i stopped because my brake light was on...traction control was off and my slip light stayed on!!!!:mad.: the whole way to my job..wtf man since i got this car back problem after problem..and only doors that unlock when i hit the unlock button is the driver side..not even the trunk unlocks...wtf?!:frown:
 
you will def have to take it back and have them fix all the stuff. Maybe they messed up some wires or something.
 
20/25 setup could be money! Any pics?

I posted some pics in THIS thread. I think 25mm is too much (for my taste) in the back. I'm going to test fit the 20mm spacers in the front and see if the wider front fender will give me the staggered look I want. If so I'll go with 20mm all around. If not, it will be 15mm up front.
 
I always liked the idea of 20mm's in the rear with 25mm's in the front due the extra front fender meat. Seemed like it would be a nice "close to flush" but not over the top.....

Heh, that's what I meant to say. Wider front fender = larger spacer. Thanks buddy. :tup:

I debadged the FX35 off my car today and I just finished installing Marek's underdash led kit. I can't wait till it gets dark so I can get the full effect of the lights. Will post pics when the sun goes down.

20% tint on the front windows today.... Love the look on my 2006 IP Fx35.

I have had it a week, and love it. Any good ideas how can get the right Cd for the nav for my region?
