Hey all,

I am cross shopping a couple of cars right now to get something new within the next month. Because I currently drive a 2001 VW Jetta GL I4 with 115 HP, pretty much anything I get will be a step up. Anywho, I was wondering 2 things.

1) Are there any major TSBs for the Altima Coupe that I should be aware of?2) Are there any major changes planned between the 2008 and 2009 models?

I tried to skim the forums for answers, but nothing really gave me a direct answer. I know that I drove one of the new 2008 Altima Sedan 2.5 models about a year ago when I had to rent a car for a month while I got a new transmission under warranty. I loved the pickup for it being a 4 cylinder, but going from a Jetta with a fair amount of steering feedback to the Altima which was really light and easy was different to say the least. I suppose that brings up a third question...

3) Would aftermarket suspension changes affect the amount of feedback in the steering wheel to help provide a better feel or no?

Thanks for the info and help.

1) Not too sure about the TSBs2) Nope...no significant changes other than 18" rims on the 3.53) Right now I've got front & rear endlinks, RSB, springs, and 18x8 Konigs wrapped in 225/45 rubber...is corners like mad! Steering response is muchly improved and cornering is nice 'n flat. At the moment, there isn't much variety in aftermarket suspension mods (hell, I have 'em all!). Basically, it can only get better from here!
