after $1200 my suby is finally runnning!whoa i have a daily now!lol

 

Allen, good luck on getting the Z.

Fabien, I'll have the rest of your cash on Monday. We can meet in Harlingen any day during the week or we can wait till Friday night at the track. What did you get Is it/can it/will it annihilate my Z? Tell us or show us.

 

Ok guys, whats the best way to get a nut off a wheel stud with tire still on. Damn nut won't tighten nor loosen and stud came loose and just spins in place. I can't take my wheel off. Suuuksssballllls

 

hey guys sorry i had to leave the hangout early. had to do some stuff with the family.

 

i think that happened to danny silver but i really dont remember how they took it off. Is it the front or back?

 

its the back wheel danny

 

i know the 370z's have a TSB on that. wd-40 always does the trick. haha. Have you tried using an impact "gun" ?

 

Impact gun lol

 

Yeah, I used the impact gun but the problem is that the stud bolt got cross-threaded. So, it won't loosen or tighten and the stupid stud came loose from the hub. It just spins together with the nut.

I'm going to order some new studs today. Hopefully, they'll come in by Friday. I'm itching to go to the track.

 

Impact gun + extra set of hands
Using your impact gun, plus somebody actually pull the tire out should do the trick.

 

That is what I'm going to try 1st. I'm going to use a prybar to push the wheel out and hopefully press the stud into the hub enough for it to grab. Its just that the damn nut is cross threaded so it might not come out.

If that don't work. I'm hoping to be able and fit my grinding wheel in between the gap and cut that stud off.

Alex is suppose to come help out tomorrow. Two people should so the trick.

 

And if that don't work, then I'm going to have to drill out the stud nut and break it off somehow. I'll figure something out.

3 day air'd the extended wheel studs. So I should be good by Friday.

 

Just my luck! Nothing worked. Had to drill out the nut and stud. what a PITA. After drilling a few holes along the nut and stud and relieving some of the stress, I was able to pull the tire w/prybar and get that nut loose. It wasn't as easy as it sounds. Broke about 5 bits in the process and probably have more gray hairs because of it. Anyways, tire is off. Now I just need the extended lugs to come in. So far Friday track night is still on.



Where has Danny Red been? Is he banned again under his new name? Wonder how his surgery went.

 

X2^^^^

 

So far Friday looks like it'l be clear with temperatures dipping into the 50's. at night. Its time to see what this thing can do. It better be at least a 12 sec pass. If Its not I'll let BLDG give it a try.

1. Drock
2. BLDG (fastest lancer in bville) j/k
3. Fabien (in new toy)
