Yes... This. I really want to keep my stock setup for the future. I don't like the fact that the basis is basically like having a coilover sleeve on a stock shock where you lose travel the lower you go meaning the shock is stressed way more than it should be.

Well as its name "Basics" because it basic coilover....provides you with only height adjustment....I had that coilover on my car for 80,000 miles with ZERO issues....

The Tein SS which is a step up does not come with top hats either....and it does not offer preload adjustment....this was the main reason I went with the XLR8 ISC N1 coils....i got height adjustment, preload adjustability and dampening control, with those coils for a price less than Tein SS....and they come with Top Hats I have had those on for around 8-10K miles and again without an issue so far....

kids these days.. all they care about is multiplayer.. What's so great about playing with a group of 5 year olds whose sole purpose in life is to call you a camping fag and tell you in their squeaky voice how they shoved their 3 inch cock into your mother.

It's more about playing with a group of friends. If I play online it's by myself with everyone muted or with a group of buddies teaming up. That goes for shooters and racing games lol

But I agree with Iam, Halo 2 had the best multiplayer, hands down. Favorite single player Halo...Halo. Loved the original. Halo 2 and 3 had a lot of great missions though.

Halo 4 story didn't do much for me...

halo 2 was great to play with friends, doubles, customs, etc. Plus the mute button works too.

I actually like the multiplayer enhancements in the new CoD.. you can mute all but party. On PSN, 2nd player can use their PSN acct. Nice.

Halo 2 multiplayer was good in the sense that it was fairly simple and intuitive. Even in lobby chat some mother fucker would come in and say how he was going to kick everyone's ass.. Of course that dip shit would get tagged and tea bagged left and right.

I haven't played the Halo series since Halo 3 and I'm debating picking up Black Ops 2. I rarely have time to even play xbox anymore so I might just save my money

they still have nissan centercaps in them. Im going to see about sanding/shaving them down to flat and repainting to match. All depends on whether the raised portion of the emblem is still flat on the underside of the cap or not

If you get the original center caps, IIRC you can remove the Infiniti logo with fishing line and have a flat center cap.

ill have to look closer at them. from a quick glance, they look like they are moulded out of the center cap. of course then again, they have been painted so it could just be really thick paint already. ill let you know

Sweet wheels Glenn...for a second there, I thought you had traded your ugly Type S with ugly Type S badges on the fenders for a G37!



There...you asked for it.
