heheh, i would change my user name if i could....

You gotta let me in on where you found some of this stuff. Does NISMO make it all?
If you could hook me up with links for this stuff i would be quite happy!

To date I only knew that DG racing made an intake, Nismo made a suspension, Pacesetter will make a header. But what about the:

*strut tower brace
*MAF
*ECU
*Sway Bars
*Cat back exhuast

Well, My CV joints are way past the clicking stage and at the clunking stage now. Personally I would rather go through CV joints on a lowered car than go through the same joints in virtually the same amount of time at stock ride height.

I could probably get most of the work done through my mechanics teacher at my school. Free labour and good marks all in one, it just doesnt get any better!

I honestly think the lowering/axle thing is crap. Persnally I think its your engine orientation to the hubs i.e. probably
bad motormounts. BTW, there are numerous places every where I have lived who specify in CV axles and do them dirt cheap, among other suspension components.

Exclamation RADIOACTIVE B12

Hey Stud, I made a list of all availible B12 mods unless you want me to mail the attachement program to your house, or just allow me a second to get the company info and post it here. Yo Box, what's going on? I go to the dealer because I trust the work they do and the parts are genuwine new/re-man Nissan authorized parts. Yes Box the prices are high, but taking my car which has become family to me) to a local gas station. No, the car would certainly die. I have an exstinsive impecable service history with Passport Nissan (I do not even patronize Jiffy Lube)! I had a bad hit with Quick Lube in Lanham, MD. I, like a dummy got my oil changed at a side shop and a week later my oil light came on. I immedeatly shut my car off to find a pool of oil under my car I WAS CRUSHED 9:30 at night too. Had it towed to the dealer just to find the oil plug was gone. Those bastards did not tighten my plug properly this idiot move could have cost me a new motor! I do not have any mechanical skill guys please do not bash me I am one of the best buddies I person can have! As for Driver (SILVER-CAR) The dealer says: there I go again with the "D" word. . . The axle is much like your spine, it has a natural position. When you bend or sit improperly in a chair you alter this natural axis, the closer the axle is to strait the more prone it is to damage due to mis-alignment. I had this Nismo race setup before and it was a "B" but they (The Dealer) will not tell you that this is a RACE-SUSPENSION made for cars that may drive 5k miles a year. Yes you car drive daily on it but it was NOT made ideally for daily driver useage, crushing potholes in D.C., working as a pizza driver, I could go on. I failed to mention that once I raised the car back up with O.E. parts it would wander and sway with no steering input. I had taken it back and they said that when lowered you STRETCHED the suspension bushings to more of an oval shape from the round opening shape in the bushings center. Now I had to replace all of the bushings and the real links because they said the bushings in the rear links were not replaceable $1,400.00 F#CKING MAD now! I had taken my A33 down to Passport Nissan about a month ago and they tried to charge me an additional $200.00 for the 7,500 mile service which is only $100.00 I aint paying $300.00 for it man I left! I took it back to Ticher Nissan where I bought it. NO nothing is wrong with my B12 never raced adult owned my part called a Buffer Mount is bad whatever that is? SORRY FOR THE GIANT POST, moderator please don't kill me.

I think it's time for you to pickup a Haynes manual. You will save alot of money and gain a new appreciation for your car. BTW I don't think I'll kill you today.

Exclamation Hanes?

I do know how to be a mechanic, like what if I break some thing? I do not have mechanic tools I tried one time but the nut was soo tight that Rowdy Roddy Piper, Superfly Snooka, Big John Stud, and Mr. Universe could not turn it. Dude you should see some of thos HUGE spiders under that car, NO! I have to drive for while before I get under it. Them things are big as grape fruits!

87 the Haynes manual tells you how to do everything in step-by-step instructions. Any idiot can do stuff like an oil change or replacing brakepads. Invest in a socket and ratchet set. It's very worth it!!!

Exclamation Box is right though.

But Box honestly if I worked on this car, it would be for sale because I have no clue what it will turn out to be. I'm no tech! Can I get an amen 2 dat! Anybody want a B12 dash kit? Like the one on my car, please say YES. Mail me at my home and I will send you a shadow sheet attachement gconway1@msn.com -Greg ster

Seriously. Start with a small thing like an oil change, if you have a friend that's experienced with this stuff, that will help. Once you start working on the car you will understand how everything works and you will gain confidence in yur mechanic skills

Thumbs up See me chill'in at Pep Boys!

[color=blue][font=courier new]Actually I know it needs an oil change. I will in most cases buy another carb too since the engine swap biz aint happening here. I have to get the header removed and the O.E. re-installed I need a mixture heater and a pcv or pvc whatever that is too, Capital Nissan gave me a complete list of what I need to fix. Looked like a christmas list. I think I know one guy that can probly do it, and should have the tools. I will keep you posted. My emissions test is due on 09/25/2002 so I might not make a move on this car until September. If I ever get it back on the road I will personally drive over all of you guys house's and say Hello oh the tags expire 07/31/2002 so I have to renew them fast!

Lightbulb Rosen Autosport, WOW!

Hey Nismo Driver, I had checked out the site you told me about. I was cool, though it is a HUMP from my house, I will have to pay them a visit some day soon. Hey Rice Box and Sentra Stud, I helped a guy on this site with his EGR problem, I was the only reply. I told him exactly what the Nissan tech told me so he should be O.K. NOW I AM A JR. MECHANIC!!!!!!!!!! Keep up with me guys because once I get my sampan running again we can all hook up one day and go out for dogs & shakes, cool? Hit me up, guys. After that I was ready to build a race motor, or better yet a dual Chevy 454 V-8 engine swap into a B12 with a quad turbo, (4) 150 shot N.O.S. bottles two super chargers, a power glide tranny, 411 diff w/ a locker, extended fiberglass front end (to hold the longer motors), with four O2 sensors and four cats so I would be smog legal, you did not think I would ever try to beat SMOG did you? Take care team mates!
