This is the VIP Forum. I have no prejudice as to what is posted here as long as it is VIP related. Now, obviously, most of the information that will be posted will be directed towards Nissan/Infiniti. I liked the pics of the xB's, but I would not expect you (or anyone else) to post any technical questions or "looking for *this part*" threads pertaining to something other than Nissan/Infiniti.

In essence, "Everyone is welcome.".

On a side note, you are welcome to make reference to other boards/sites, but you are not allowed to post actual links to other boards. Just a tip, not a threat. I'm a nice moderator.

Believe it or not but about 95% of them are on coil overs!Real Noise!

Alot prefer not to use bags becasue coil overs are alot stiffer which provides less wheel movement for driving at these insane hieghts.

Alot of these guys also ride around scraping up there under bodies/parts! MUST BE NICE to have your own shop to fix your car when ever you need to!

what is a "vip car"

Post by **PANCAKES1** » Tue Oct 07, 2008 10:12 am

The short answer would be:

A japanese luxury sedan (mostly V8s) modified to look more exclusive than what it was stock.....

Key features are:Low stanceFlush fitmentwide wheels <------ not a necessary feat. bottom line a better version of what the stock car looked like. Think of the word VIP as in somethin of importance. When you see a "VIP car" you wonder who drives that car or who owns it. Think exclusive style......

This is sorta a quick explination

Post by **Damicci** » Tue Oct 07, 2008 1:53 pm

Nice to see ya posting again brother.

What cakes said. Initially was meant to make the car look more "important" but now it's just a styling for large Japanese Sedans and what not.

HAhahahaha......thanks, but I have these pics already!

Post by **jltibbs** » Mon Oct 13, 2008 3:57 pm

So do you have clear tails on the Y? Post some pics bro.

Post by **Haitian_King** » Mon Oct 13, 2008 7:25 pm

This damn thread has ruined my life!

I can't look at a car on the street anymore without debating the merits of lower offsets and flushness. It's like looking at everything for the first time.

I look at my G50 and hate myself for not having lower offsets. DAMNIT!

You guys did this to me! Lol.

i gotta say i'm looking at getting rid of this:

...and building my own VIP :-) starting with a Q45. i like this styling but i want it in white or silver with a taller kit and i'd have to turbo it ;-)

Devin, I figured the bug was bitin' you since you had been in here more often. That truck is sweet.

Post by **lightsout** » Tue Oct 14, 2008 3:40 pm

the bug bit me and then sucked out some blood...the gas for this thing is too much for my budget now days. I just installed a new alternator and starter today i need to drive it until fricken Drivewire gets me the Maxima CV axle shaft b/c they f'd up in shipping me a core instead of the NEW part, and now they want proof with pictures. i've got a few more things planned before i sell. I built the truck myself in an autofab/autobody class a few years ago, and have had a blast driving it ever since. out here in East County San Diego it's a def head turning and i'm always getting drive-by and and the occasional 16 year old kid that's like duuuuuuude sweeeeet. but i'm all for more luxury right now, b/c i can actually use the luxury car...but i'll build a better F150TT down the road when it can be taken out to the desert a lot more often

I definitely do not want to bust your bubble, but Q's are nit known for MPG. I get 13MPG city and 22MPG HWY. I drive it on the weekends and my 93 Sentra throughout the week.

that's actually better than i thought! in the truck i get about 8mpg highway, and 6city so ANYTHING is a big upgrade. heck, my Maxima only gets about 22-23 hwy mpg. All i ever drive is highway b/c i live way out in the mountains and drive into the city/towns every day i've almost got the Maxima where i want it to be, then i'll stop building that and start the Q as a small side project

Or not. All I have done to my Q is a JWT ECU, exhaust, springs, and wheels. Wheels, springs and ECU came with the car, so $ wise I'm out $800 in exhaust, having the wheels polished, and getting new tires for them. Small side project = no. Well worth it IMO though.

Post by **heavenz11** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 12:11 am

How much did it cost you to get your wheels polished?

Post by **jltibbs** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 9:52 am

$200.
