finally making progress after a year

suspension done. waiting on digital setup. autopilot is stupid, the transducer wires are only a foot or so.:slap:
 front and rear tuck 20's with 245/35's.  if i had 19's with a good stretch 30 series it would probably almost lay frame. :dance:

Looking real nice yo cant wait to see it complete...the F150's on slam too

tint looks really good, more pics.

since it wont be done by tuesday heres another pic, this one showing the terrible fitment. 20x9 +35 hehe. looks like i can fit a 10j +15 if i rolled the fenders flat as possible.

hmm i should of rotated the picture before uploading. :pat:  dont look at it too long, i dont want to be liable for 'taco-neck syndrome' ahahaha mf shaq

sick ride man..looks like richie's house so i kno its gonna be a great install..

Can't wait to see how your Q is going to look.

ow my neck

Can't wait to see this :)  What kind of suspension are you running?

looks sick... now wheres the full pics?

my guy was working on getting it lower. he kept squeezing extra 10mm at a time. idk how exactly, just modifying brackets and removing perches and rearranging stuff i guess. he re-did some work a few times already cause he keeps finding ways to modify it.
 anyway looks like i wont get it back til the weekend. o well.

dammit... haha im hoping to get mine in there next week sometime...  looking good so far..

[quote=lash56;200716]dammit... haha im hoping to get mine in there next week sometime...  looking good so far..[/quote]

lol..sorry yo. unexpected delays. almost done tho, im headed there right now to drop off my digital controller. good thing i let that burgundy fabulous  LS430 go before me or i wouldve felt bad.

very nice. didn't even catch the ford the first time.

Get new rims asap. looks good

Sick setup, what suspension are you running? Man I wish I could lay mines that low

Oh crazy.

x2 still waiting to hear if this is UAS on stock struts?

Coming along man

yeh, uas on new oem struts. im taking pics of all the struts etc after. someone on here and a couple guys on freshalloy are interested in the strut setup. honestly though, i wish i went with coilovers. the struts were a lot harder to mod than expected. i got a great price on the oem struts from nissan via sessionsusa (thanks bryan) but for 1500 more i couldve just got coilovers shipped. wouldv'e saved a bunch of time, and labor. Also i must note that my installer did a great job of installing and reinstalling everything to get it lower n lower. the fronts are like an inch lower than what the normal UAS install would have yielded. the rears probably a half inch to an inch. it would have originally looked like a seesaw with the rear dumped and the front tucking only part of the tire.

yo your car looks sick! i saw your car....i wanted to take some pic and post them up for u on here. well i was going to ask u 1st....but man your car will be done before u know it.

ya its almost done..autopilot wiring is too short to do a really clean install. and my AZ compressor was missing its mounting bolts and the air intake. :pat: allllmost

Thanks for the details!  It's nice and low.

Looks really, really good man! Is Richie doin the install>?

yezzir.

btw shoot me a pm with your email. my friends been doin up some 90's benz's with an oem look interior like u were going for. also just did this old skool pontiac with full tan ostrich everything. i finally trust his skills enough to make referrals now. =)

meannnnnn......

arghhh fukn easy street autopilot!! one of the circuits are burnt. gotta bypass some stuff now. shit and the autopilot itself isnt fitting well into my ashtray. ive been dremel-ing shit for days already. fiberglassing it in is gonna be a B. should get my car back tonight hopefully. damn my car got 99 problems n gas aint one :pat:

hahaha, cant wait to see it. i love these cars!

wow. the easy street autopilot ecu already had 1 fried circuit and then it blew a fuse and is now no longer turning on . :thumbsdown:  i might just drive it at whatever dropped height it is now until i get a new ecu or something.

Wow that sucks with the Digital Controller......any way you can Warranty that stuff?  Or does it not come with a Warranty because it is an "electronic" item.  Hope my tuning of my Easy Street Digital Controller is going alright.....recall he was encountering some problems with the Easy Street Digital Controller also.

Either way I hope that you are able to get that thing up and running......especially because its not like it was a cheap piece.

Sukoshiyoshi

ugh my car is stuck at a high ride height and easystreet wont get back to me til monday at the earliest. the ride on the fronts is mean, better than stock. rear is real high right now so its bouncy and twitchy. if they dont warranty it then ima be pissed. i dont see why not since it worked for only 10 seconds.

Yikes!  Good luck with them.

Sorry to hear the troubles Jay, good to see your car coming along though. :biggthumpup: Did you test fit the MP kit on the car, with the air suspension fully dumped to see if it clears (and don't smash the kit) by chance?

no, but it should be ok..i think. haha last time i measured the mp kit hangs about 2 inches lower front n rear. hope you go to the meet!

Thats good to know you at least know how it stood with test fit.  Did you paint the kit already?  But no can't make it to the meet, plus my car in the body shop anyway lol, have fun though :biggthumpup:

yes yoshi they did do a straight trade warranty. it took a lil over a week since i had to ship it back first. so...now i gotta wait til after thanksgiving to get this shit installed!:dance::runcoold: im tired of riding on pseudo-coilovers, my cars been slowly gettin lower since i daily drive it and its already been at a low psi for awhile. keep scraping everywhere since i cant raise it right now. :pat:

nope didnt paint the kit, everything else has been on hold cause of the air and my stereo problems. 

btw did you have any problems with your jp kit when u were 0psi with ur airrunners?

They did a Warranty on the Digital Controller huh?  It may come down to that if all fails.  They are currently looking for a solution to my "ride height" function.  Looking forward in seeing your ride completed.  It is going to look sick.  You, Kyle, and Mikey should get together for a Photo shoot when all your Q's are done.

it was actually a warranty on the ecu, so far the controller still works fine *crosses fingers*

Actually when I had 20's on I had about an 3/4 gap all around the Kit, once I went 19's I was basically 1/4 inch or less on the ground (never really measure)... lol Also I just upgraded the Airrunner kit with the Air runner Electric 8 valve, hella alot faster, but no floating after lift hehe... 
By the way what happen to the stereo?

can't wait to see it with the Mode Parfume kit...gonna look hot like fires..

damn see i want to go 19's but i think my kit will crunch. we'll see.
idk whats up with my stereo. had some noise goin on. its all torn apart right now awaiting my new autopilot parts to be installed. my installer is supposed to look at it when i get my car back. :shrug:





and speedaddict, your car is fire! i like how it has balls to back up the style. if there were more parts besides impul for my car id do some mods too. :sad:

yo i should have called u last nite to go out... my bad... club business = biatches

ahaha. ive been stayin away from those bars. times are tight so those hoes stepped their hustle up.

[quote=jaynick808;208968] times are tight so those hoes stepped their hustle up.[/quote]:smiley-rofl:man...that's a great quote for hard times....:innoutrofl2:

ugh...new ecu installed...


..only lasted 30 seconds longer than the first one. 
easy street ftl. :thumbsdown: 
i dont know what theyre gonna try to do about it this time, but im looking at dakota digital already. my installer is trying to push the airride epro2 or whatever but i think its kinda ugly. 
anyone else here besides sukoshiyoshi have problems with the autopilot??

oh and to make it worse my car is dumped out on the street and no longer mobile. :dance: do the happy dance!

haha i also might add i fiberglassed the controller into my ashtray the other day, so if i go with another brand itll be tons o' fun. i didnt think the second unit would be faulty too. :pat: i mean wouldnt they test it and stuff before they shipped it out? especially since i just returned the last one and they claim they didnt have problems before, wouldnt they look into it?

That's messed up man.  Sorry to hear about that.  What is even more jacked is that you are dumped and can't roll.  I currently have it set on "manual" as the "Pre-set" for the "Ride Height" is a no go.  I got "remote" start and it would of been great to "automatically" raise up to ride height.  Right now I am all "Manual" and getting all the PSI levels to match is no fun.

E-mailing Jeremy to resolve my issues with no luck yet.  I still have "hope" that it will get fixed.  I hope both our stories will have a "good ending".

Sukoshiyoshi

sorry to hear there is gotta be someone here who also used their products could chime in.

thanks, im just probably gonna get a regular switchbox in the meantime. have it manual with no gauges. until i can get this digital problem worked out.

theres some tip on what jermy gave me to get yoshis air going...
 
before you do the Learn thing.. make sure all exh mufflers and throttle vavles are removed..
make sure tank is full
than you do the learn thing.

thanks bro, any input is appreciated.  
so does that mean yoshis air is working properly now?

ok sooo easystreet sucks. dodgin my calls and having very little technical support.
in the meantime im gonna start working on my modepar exhaust and replacing/removing my cats. starting with this huge beast.  [IMG]http://photos-e.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v1442/81/91/19513159/n19513159_32910372_2541.jpg[/IMG]

any ideas on replacement cats? im lookin for the oval hi flow type. or does anyone with any year Q have a couple of the cats removed?(with a soundclip preferably)

this particular pic is the lowest point of the car right now, then its a resonator towards the rear. after that i can get lower :dance:

Wow that is prety low...I can't even see any "light".  

When I had my Maxima I ripped out the Cat and replaced it with the "Cherry Bomb". The design should give you more clearance.  Not sure of how much "louder" the exhaust would be though.

My Egg has one Cat Removed, Replaced with a Muffler pics up in the other thread.  I still think that it is a little loud and would not mind if I could tone it down a little more.  One good thing about the exhaust noise is that it drowns out the noise made when the compressor kicks in.  LOL 

As for my Digital Controller........no still got problems.  But the problems are due to the "Product".

Sukoshiyoshi

thanks for the cherry bomb idea, i know they got those at checkers. only thing is those glasspack's are pretty loud n somewhat long. im gonna take it to exhaust systems n see what they say.

sick F50.... my father in-law lives right up the street from you if im not mistakin. i always see the bagged f150. anyways Cant wait to see this done

Thats the lowest part of the car.  I had that thing rip off like 3-4 times until I said F*** it and just went straight pipe from there lol.  I rarely go over 2k rpm on the streets so the cops dont harrass about the noise but when I get on it, it sounds like a beast

sound clip or fail =)

straight pipes or fail =)

if you're really bout it go oval tubing.

lol I will try to get one for you soon

this sounds pretty interesting. i wonder what kind of maniacal plans u got.


and blkonblk as far as i know there isnt oval tubing here, and no straightpipes for me its too loud for my neighborhood plus it takes away the classy feel. i just want a nice roar when i gun it but i dont like the loud burbles of a idling straight pipe.

sacrifices have to be made to get low. i didn't really mean straight pipes... just resonator delete.

if you ask me a mean v8 rumble is more classy than draggin s**t on the ground.

i see i see. well in my case id have to do a 2 main cats and a resonator delete. plus my exhaust already has a muffler delete, leaving me with 2 of the smallest mufflers i have on the car. 

ya i feel u about hearing exhaust over scrapes. but im not currently draggin anythin its just that once in awhile i gotta reweld the exhaust back up cause it hits something and gets lower than its supposed to be.

i was tryin to find pics of an f50 exhaust cause, admittedly, i'm not 100% on whats going on down there.

i wouldn't delete the cats but possibly use a racing style cat that has much less bulk probably.

[IMG]http://www.randomtechnology.com/images/703000.jpg[/IMG]

resonator i would delete, and possibly a larger muffler to help with the sound since they are usually tucked out of the way.

ya thats one of the things i was thinking of trying. hi flow lowprofile cats, and straight piping the resonator, then adding a muffler in the rear cause theres a lot of room. or maybe beefing up the 2 small mufflers in the rear. ill try to look for an undercarriage shot, i dont have a great one cause i didnt take it to a lift in a while. widebodyq's pic is hard to judge cause theres so much shrapnel :smiley-rofl:

:sad:

I can definitely attest to the cat being the lowest point.  I just tried driving in a foot of snow and the cat was dragging along while the rest of the car cleared.  This is at stock ride height btw.

[QUOTE=jaynick808;214392]

You have to buy them online and ship them.  I did that for my mandrel intercooler piping.  

Here's the oval tubing from where I buy mine:

thanks guys. wow that oval tubing bend is expensive. that was my second concern about the oval tubing is gettin it mandrel bent down here if i did bring it. hmmm oval straight pipes would make a lot of clearance up front tho.


[B]anyone took off/ or modified their lower engine tray splash guard thing?[/B] i know im not taking it off unless it rips off, but it is pretty low and will be the new lowest point when i do figure something out for the exhaust. i wish i had a full garage lift so i can post pics. my good jack is missing its handle and the junk checkers 2 ton jack is scary sounding when lifting the front of my car.

Haha, I never said it was cheap.  But it's super quality stuff...

woohoo my new autopilot is finallly just leaving the east coast!! :pat:  i wish i could just get a refund already. the time its taking to get this one running i could have done so many other things. cars been down while working/WAITING on suspension for a solid 2 months now, with no end in sight. if i had basic airrunner w/paddles i could have been coming out the paint shop by now. :signdammit:

damn dude I hate waiting too... but good to hear you finally in paint, can't wait to see it done=)

Looking forward to seeing ur ride dumped on the road!

hellooooo down there in the threadular hole. any updates?

Mine fell off on the highway a while back but I was so glad it did.  It used to scrape everywhere.  I am thinking about buying a new one and having it rigged alittle higher so my engine will still have protection but I won't have all the scraping.

On my SC400 the tray started dragging so I ripped it off.  I think it only protects from dirt and rocks from flying up into the engine bay.  There are plenty of cars out there that don't have the plastic tray so I wouldn't be concerned about removing it.
