Suspension is almost done, Time for body and interior now.

[GreenQ45a]

I have almost finshed restoring my Full Active Suspension.

While my Accumulators were flat. two of my windows stopped working.I can here the motors working the tech at Infiniti said they could have just jumped of the track as bad as the bumps got with Flat Accum's.

I can't remove the hand rest's to check it out because there on so tight and I dont want to f**k up the leather (my doors are in great cond).

The guy who had the car before me mounted the stock car-phone next to the Bose head unit. I will use the mount (that he covered with some ulgy p-leather stuff) to mount my T-Mobile PocketPC Phone.But the 80's car phone is going in the rear parcel shelf (just incase)

I use T-mobile because my Girl works for them but ther coverage sucks.Version has the best Coast to Coast coverage so I activate it on road trips.

My interior is in pretty good shape I do have 2 cracked mirror lids and one of the front seats are almost as bad as Jedsa's. But I have seat covers that will hold me over till I can redo the leather.

Have you priced the visors @ Infiniti?Ouch..for that much money I was thinking of installing 7in LCD Screens in place of the mirrors. Then no need for the mirror lids Right?

As for the back: 15in split screen fold down in place of the dome light assy.Or a fold down 10in & 8in widescreens in the head rests.

I was worried about rims and tires but Q45Tech made me change my mind.There are worse rims out there than my BBS's. I think will just get great tires instead.

This is my body\Interior list:

Install the ASE664 ACTSUS controller The leather faces front seats.Front right window.Rear left window.2 cracked mirror lid's.Pass Fog lamp.Clear turn indicators are cracked.(the one's outside the headlights)Need extra FOB and key.Sun-roof sticks in the summer.Drivers side door pinstripe is coming off.and a few small dings & scratches.

The worst part is I could have fixed the 2 windows and turn lights for 150.00 from Dr.Q but that deal never went through(all my fault).

You've done real well so far, just don't lose interest when you're slightly farther along, it's easy to do.

Keep up the good work.

Good work. Remember the 91/Q45 mantra, which says restore to OEM new, then modify.

Just wondering what the rear view would be with the fold down LCD screen in place of the dome light. Of course, I never speed in NM!

Before the summer I did the following:

I only run Mobil 1 full syn. Oil.for Engine and transmission.

new Air filter (I was thinking about JWT pop charger.)next time.new breaks (all around)new fuel filternew rocker cover gaskets (valve covers) new sparkplugs (denso I know every body here likes NGK)Ohm tested the coil packs..all within specs.new oil pressure sending unit.2 power steering leakslots of active leaks. (mostly those cheap clamps lost tension).

on Oct 2, I installed the 4 main strut Texasoil accumulators.which fixed my strut leaks.Then about a week later my full active system started working again.It was air locked the safety bypass valve was not working.

never the less Texasoil accumulator restored my ride to 70% the other 30% will come with bushings and the other Texasoil accumulators.

for all of you out there with Active Q's the recharged Texasoil Accumulators will fix almost any strut leaks and return the ride to most of is glory.

besides once there modded for recharge you get them recharged for:100.00 - 125.00 each. A great set of (normal)struts will run you that much.

I was thinking about JWT pop charger.

I was thinking about JWT pop charger.

Please don't without reading the previous posts. Same with Denso vs. NGK.

Remember the 911/Q45 mantra.

Good work..

I agree..... No mods until perfect....

Also, when you do stuff, take my advice and do as much as you can at one time. If that means saving up for a while and doing it all at once do it that way.. That way you wont lose interest and start "living" with little things. I am convinced that there is only a handful of Q45s out there where EVERYTHING is perfect. On my Q, theres some little goofy gremlins but nothing that matters......

Everythign looks good though..... I would reconsider the POP charger though.. I was thinking about something like that, and the only reason Id do it is to have more beefy noise, but since I have an extra airbox i think ill try messing with that.....

The only way I see messing with the OEM intake is making a true cold air intake system. But considering on the 90 that I have if you look at the intake system it is damn near being a real cold air intake system. The air is coming from the bottom of the bumper correct?
