I have always liked the Z but my hardcore V8 chevy buddies always gave me grief about the "import" aka ricers cars. Well I am glad to say to each his own.

I know I almost had to give up my first born to get the car. My wife calls the car the other women.

MY car is a double edge sward because pretty much what ever I spend on the car I have to spend on my wife. For instance I got the 350Z and now she wants a used H2. What can I say happy wife happy life.

This is the part # the dealer gave me on the O-ring B1304-43400. Oh by the way I have to take the Z to the dealer ship for the recall on the fuel lines.

1st. time I hear 'bout this specific issue on Zs. Usually it's the feathering thingy, the pax
side window sticking or the clunky MTs. Weird.

The O-ring was just worn out. No big deal. All though the spark plug were worn the hell out. They were NGK but the electros were burn out and the cap was at .86. I know wow.
I will be doing a few little mods to the car like for a example a catch can, machining the lower plenum and porting the bottom of the intake. Plus I was thinking of putting in a 5/16 spacer as well. I know that I am going to put in a LS7 engine later on down the road but for now things like this will do.
