    Haha yeah. I'm thinking of just using the G as my "lightly modified" daily and getting something RWD like a 240sx for my project car. :)

    Haha yeah, I posted it up a few weeks ago. I live in Cobb County, if you know where Johnson Ferry and Roswell Rd. intersect...that's about two minutes from my house. And definitely let me know on the muffler shop...I'd much rather go with a shop than ebay garbage!

    It depends on how much you want to lower it but you must search, the forum is full of info on nearly every mod you can think of. Theres many users sporting Tein S. tech that give you like 1.7 front 1.3 rear. The mildest of the drops are given by the Eibach Pro Kit, and the biggest drop by lowering springs is obtained by the Progress Springs but do some research in the forum.

    yea i know pretty much where that is i dont get down there much but that shop is right in canton which is just right up 575 so it would be about a 45 or so min drive for you its called cherokee muffler they do really good work for cheap, if you pay with cash they wont charge you tax, they did my galant and my maxima and that were all my friends go. oh and if you need new tires i know a place thats on sandy springs road that does really good deals for tires too

    Wow I forgot about this thread. Well here's an update!
    I was selling her to get a 240sx...after literally about 20 tire kickers in a row and "definite sales" that fell through last minute, I've decided to keep her. My plans are to lower her, put a catback on, fix the passenger window motor, figure out why my horn isn't working, maybe try and somehow wrap the armrest in something woodgrain to match the radio trim/door trims, and maybe after all of that 5spd swap. :]
    I was looking at Tein lowering springs, but some of my 240sx friends told me that if I run lowering springs, I'll blow my stock shocks up. Is this true? I really don't wanna spend $900+ on coilovers...

    Another update. I measured the gap between my tires and fender and I have a 3.5" gap in the front and a 2" gap in the rear. I'm thinking about getting the Tein S-Tech 1.7" front and 1.3" rear lowering springs. If I plan on getting an eBay cat, do you think I should get the cat first to measure and make sure I have dropping room or should I not have any problem?
