Pretty good IMO for being on the car for 80k miles. No leaks, sounds awesome. Tips look great. Rear looks great. Underside has been hit by a couple of pieces of road debris but it's purely cosmetic and can only be seen when you're under the car.

So the sides are made by Shine? I apologize for the stupid question. Basically they are Nismo replica's? How would you rate thier fitment? They look pretty good. Thanks

probably around 10k once it's returned to stock. remember: this car had its engine replaced at approx 60k miles, so it's just liike you're getting a brand-new 90,000 mile engine!
Yep, the sides are Shine Nismo JDM (little bump, not USDM) replicas. Fitment is dead-on.
The fitment on the v2 is dead-on also, short of the cracks.

Yahh, I'm sure I could get something, but it was a warranty replacement after being dicked around for close to 4 months. It's pretty evident, as the engine is stamped with the new part code that ends in AC7MZ or something along those lines. If you're serious about it, I'm sure I can forage something up.
It was replaced at Napleton Nissan in Riviera Beach, FL.
There's a sticky thread in the engine section titled Rev Up Oil Consumption. Search for my posts and you can read all about my quest getting the engine replaced.
It was broken in per Nissan guidelines once the swap was complete. The engine pulls strong, no pinging or other issues. No surprises. Once the part out moves along, I'll make another thread about the car itself and detail the cosmetic issues (couple of dents). Mechanically it is sound... couldn't ask for more, really.
