The Random Question Thread

RIPnFX u just made my day!!!! thank you. BTW i have lower springs on now. and yes i have some negative cambers. but that's minor, my next step is to change my rims. i wanna go 10.5 or 11 at the back. but i have 20mm spacers all around. are they gonna rub ? i still have my stock rims on. they don't seen to rub at all. but im not sure about the custom rims
 
I have had springs on for 2 years and went to the dealer multiple times and they never said anything. When I had my stock 21 inch wheels on I had 15mm spacers on the front and 25mm on the rear and it never rubbed, so your good. I have 22x10 front and 22x10.5 rear currently and I'm going to drop it more With coilovers and With that it even won't rub.

Xylex,

I installed the bypass kit on my 12FX and it works as described. You can do the DIY mod if you don't mind cutting/removing wires. One of the main advantages of Car Kit's system is that it is reversible and it won't show up in any service diagnostics. It's worth the money..get one.

Thanks! Gonna order it now. Easy to install? I'm weary about removing my navi lol.

Installation instructions are spot on. Took me roughly 45min and it was my first time to remove center console.

Anyone have a bose amp they can sell me
 
Basically the same thing, exact adjustment, spring rate, design, price, etc. So close everyone thinks they're made in the same factory. They're not, but factories are very close. Might get better price on BC right now through zebra who is vendor and member here.

Anyone know what the best coilovers are for a 2010 FX35?

Get the cheaper one.

Other the colors there shouldn't me too much different. I compared side by side my BC racing to my friends megan for our g35x. 95% the same except colors and I have 32 way adjust and he had 36. Spaners work on both. Weight is the same.

I've been getting grinding noises from the left side of my car.. Below or in the back.
It happens every time I brake at a low speed and sometimes even without applying the brakeI, but at a really low speed. I think I found the problem, though.. It's like the calipers are scraping the rotor. Any ideas/input?

Noise comes from this brake, I believe. Notice how the outer part of the rotor looks like it's been scraping.

Opposite side, normal possibly.

... Why didn't I think of that..? Lol ill send it to brake check for a set of pads. What's weird is that last year it made the same noise, but the pads were new... It was just extremely hot outside that time
