Has anyone here had any experience with painting their headlight housings?

I’d like to go for a sleeker looking headlight housings (either color matched to my car or black) and I’d like to know if anyone has experience doing this specifically in terms of “baking” the headlight open?

I've been seeing some guys posting some really clean Z's with great wheels and fitment. Let's get them together in one thread! (Please post your wheel/tire size, lowered or not, etc)

How to pull the front wheels off the ground?

This may be a bit of a dumb question, but how are people getting their fronts to pull off the ground on launches? Does it just take a ton of power and good slicks? Or is there more to it than that? How much power do you think it would take? Just curious.

What's the best cam for street/strip duty?

I have an old fox (84) with a 5.0 and I am wanting to get a few more ponies out of the old horse. One of the things I’ve always loved is the sound of a decently cammed muscle car. I care more about power than sound, but whats a good cam I could use with my stock rockers that would give me a decent sound and some good power for the drag strip?

Problem with HID blowing out over and over- anybody else have this problem?

My car is a 2012, and I have been into the dealership 3 times in the past month for a blown out HID bulb. I think this is a little bit ridiculous for Nissan’s flagship car. They keep saying it’s just a bad bulb and they replace it for free, but 3 in a row makes me think it’s something else along the line. Does anyone else have any experience with stuff like this?

Alignment question - how much camber to run at track day?

I generally align my own cars, and I usually roll with about a degree of negative camber just for general performance. Does anyone know what the best amount would be for trackdays?

How long should a set of tires last?

I’m wondering how long the stock set of tires should last? I’m driving some what normally, but the tires have worn out within 20k, and that seems low to me. I’ve never had a set of tires last less than 30k with the way I drive. What is your opinion on this?
