How would you rate the difficulty of wrapping? I was looking into attempting myself, starting with the roof / hood. I kind of just want to try for the fun of it.

I wrapped an oem spoiler and it was a complete *****... Think I posted a pic on this thread... But the hood and big flat pieces should be pretty easy... Tight curves not so much.

Default VQ35HR PCV 1/2 done

Replaced the PCV Valve on the passenger side of the VQ35HR. Looked and searched and forget about finding the driver's side. Google was not on my side, maybe need to seek a professional Nissan Mechanic to find it.
Here is the pic of the Driver's side valve cover



Here is proof that there are (Two) PCV Valves on the VQ35HR, but

yes there was an easy find for the G37HR motor

Good luck on finding the driver's PCV Breather Valve...anyone want to chime in with proof of the driver's PCV Valve.

Yeah, so I only changed the PCV Valve on the passenger side.

Finally got my rear subframe connector brace from ultra racing. Ever so slightly heavier then the OE brace. Gives more clearance for accessing the exhaust flanges which is a major plus that i was not expecting. Definitely looks alot better then the damaged brace that I bought the car with.

Rusty, nice pickup on that brace. I saw it a few pages back (I think). Been meaning to pick it up since mine is also destroyed.

Dboyz, sounds like you are having incredible luck today.

Its expected, went pretty much exactly as planned so far... Would have been nice if I could have just broken off some of the bolts because the room for cutting isn't plentiful.

Still calling today a success... Hopefully halfway done. People that say they put their new exhaust on in an hour are jerks...

My next car im going to get imported from Texas. My cheesy supposed stainless steel exhaust is already rusted after maybe 5 months and maybe 1000 miles... I know its not of good quality but damn...




Took me about an hour and a half to get the car off the ground and get the y pipe back off... Those rubber exhaust hangers suck.
