Hey guys...My buddy was helping me out with installing the strut bar yesterday and everything went fine. but theres one problem, one of the clips(the windshield clips) fell inside the machine and im guessing it went all the way down to the bottom and now when i drive the V it starts making a noise...could it be because of the little clip is down there shaking or is it because the windshield isnt put in strong enough??? Im gonna go to the dealership today and talk to them about it but i just wanna hear yur opinions..thanks!

Oh yea..and to share a story with you guys..aftetr we installed the strut bar, we decided to give it a test drive...so we went into this neighborhood and i started drfiting and out of nowhere this undercover cop comes and pulls me over..lol...but we told him we were just testing the strut bar out and...so he just let us go hahaha

STOP DOING STUPID CRAP IN PEOPLE'S NEIGHBORHOODS!!!!!!

For the love of god, does noone here think? At least if you want to test this crap out, go to an empty parking lot where you won't have to worry about someone backing out or a kid running into the road.

Thats what im saying! I used to do that ill admit (not in my V) but then i almost hit someone and after that i stopped. And i see people do it all the time. Saw it yesterday too, someone almost hit my friends daughter.

P.S. Did the strut bar make a difference in handling?

There is a difference between drifting and power sliding....the versa power slides.

So many times going drifting...I remember everyone getting so close to hitting parked cars.

Usually cops don't care to much about drifting....I remember i was with like 20 something cars one time and a cop came with his lights off and everyone jamed...it was kinda fun cause we were drifting around coners well driving away from teh cops. and i get pulled over because i was the last in the group...guess someone had to be the last...anyways he let me go...20 mins later same guy caught us again in a different spot a mile away(there was only about 8 of us this time)...good thing he didnt reconize me...let us all go again.

This was all at 2am.

Wow..... you've either got some really dumb cops, or some really lazy cops. I'm hoping it's just lazy and someone lights a fire under their arses.

Pulling that crap in my neck of the woods, that's an instant reckless driving ticket. And our cops ARE very tight on drifting and drag laws. So tight so that they can legally impound your vehicle, even if it's sitting at home, if YOU attend a street race, even as a spectator.

And they've done it before.

and for god's sake...

Haven't you learned by now that your stupid little kid F&F series stunts and antics being performed on public roads does NOT impress anyone? It just makes us respect you even less. So stop telling us about them. Better yet: STOP DOING THEM.
