Your going crazy over nothing


Clutch adjustment is highly debatable. 5 different people can drive the car and have five different ways they want it to grab


People like you are the one us guys can't wait to leave. We suck up and say sorry till your done ranting then move on with our day

 

OUCH! Even though it looks bad you shouldn't have much of a problem getting it squared away. Good luck with the fix.

 

 

Give that man an impact wrench!!!!!

 

Nah, sorry didn't see your response before installing my new ones. And thankfully, that company off Amazon was cool and refunded my order. I actually copy/pasted ZakMartin's post to justify canceling my order.

And I watched several YT vids before even trying this. First one went on smoothly. The second one really made me question if I'd ingested too much lead paint as a child. Couldn't get it to turn properly to save my life. And then when I finally got it almost together I lost the locking pin. Luckily I took a bent up keyring and used a pair of needle nose pliers to fabricate a new one.

 

Tightened the rattle coming from the HFC non-fouler for the obd2 sensor on the passenger side. Peachy.

 

Installed a low-mile Nismo suspension.


Holy crap, the difference.

 

Did that on my car, too, and I couldn't believe how much nicer it was. At the time, the original parts only had 30K on them, so it's not like they were worn out. The Nismo damping is so much better-controlled, and the spring rates aren't too stiff for street use. Very happy with the results, and Nissan really should have used these parts on all the Z's.

 

Me and the lady friend rebuilt the front end for the 4th time to refit the new rad brackets I just got in. About 90% done now. Still have some figment issues I want to touch up before I call it good. But she's back to drivable.



Bending the brackets back to center to allow the core support and brackets to lign up properly. vvv






The before for people who don't know how much progress this is, this is where it started from
(I bought her this way, I didn't do the damage) lol

 

I need to do that. My Ingen fit like **** in the passenger side

 

Ooooo sexy legs

 

So I went ahead and thought I had a few hours I would knock out my spark plug install... Took pff the wiring harness, got my motivation up (always a little scared removing spark plugs) and welp....


Pulled off the first coil pack, and boom WTF...







Sooo I cleaned out the oil as best I could and put everything back together...





Guess I need some new valve cover gaskets.... Maybe ill get new spark plugs in then, so excited...

 

That sucks. I was thinking of changing mine out soon. They're the originals with 75k. Never owned a vehicle that required so much work to change plugs out. Lol. I have a revup but very little consumption. Wondering if I'll have a mess in there too....

 

i remember changing them on my 08, they were a pain.

 

It's my understanding that you don't need new coils though. So just a plenum gasket and plugs??? Assuming there are any issues such as the case with dboyzalter's.

 

correct

 

 

There is no separate gasket on this engines. You need new valve covers and plugs


I did the job. It's not that bad. But definitely not for the faint of heart. Big job

 

i stand corrected..

 

People have rigged spark plug gaskets but meh. Good luck with it holding for a while!
