New to Nissan

[jdb10srcoupe]

Hi, I just bought a 2010 Altima coupe 3.5sr in March. This is my first Nissan i have owned and love it so far, I traded in my 2006 trailbazer ss and have not regretted it.

welcome to the forums! Nico seems to be averaging 1 new 2010 coupe a day! There's only 1 rule here: MOD!

welcome to NICO! my altima was my first nissan too. i've also owned a honda, a toyota, and a mazda in the past.. but i've definitely had the most fun with the nissan!

welcome! Trailblazer SS is a pretty fast truck. I've raced a couple and we were pretty even but then we'd have to slow down for a red light or cars ahead or something.

[jdb10srcoupe]

The Trailblazer ss was fun but it was becoming a $$ pit. I wanted to get something way different and have not had a 2dr in 16 years, the last 2dr i had was a ford probe.

Welcome! Nice color! Trailblazer SS is a cool ride. I know it has poor gas mileage, is that the aspect of what you are referring to as it being a money pit? Or quality etc?

[jdb10srcoupe]

Both, as far as gas goes i averaged 11.5 mpg, as far as quality goes they have issues with drivetrain (trans/diffs) and a lot of little things like window reg., fuel sending units, ignition switch and I had a small electrical fire in the dash and that just pushed me over the edge.

Whats up!!!! Welcome to the most entheuzzzzzzzzzzziastic group of Nissan car owners!!!
Ps congrats on picking the best color

And Dan is right (even though he is like the only person not to drop his car yet.... lol ) the first order of business is dropping you are Eibach springs or Coils if you have the $$$$$

nice list there but u need a drp then the 19s will look 10x better w/ it basic eibach kits not bad like 280 ish n its perfect

^what he said. Springs first, then splurge on wheels.

[jdb10srcoupe]

I'm afraid if I lower it i'll start hitting parking blocks and destroy my bumper. I'm used to suv's lol

[nig1]

I lowered my ride, got 19's and went over a parking block last week!! SMH.. Anyways, my bumper cleared the parking block

I lowered my car the other day and I have like 3" of clearance off the ground tops. thats with the Eibach springs too. idk how people are getting the BC coils and lowering it even more. I mean here is me backing into my driveway (granted I probably have the steepest driveway anyway has ever seen lol)

WOW!! I'd be looking for a new house. lol

[Hussain]

lol ya, my dad is actually in the process of taking the builder to court since the driveway wasnt built according to plan... it wasnt even built with a slope allowed by the city code. so my driveway is ILLEGALLY steep FML
