is the magnetic drain plug really necessary?
I mean if you already have the filter mag, that seems to take care the job already. A mag plug is overkill, yes? |

Wonder if someone might want to put a package purchase together for both mags (drain plug) (the strong mag for the filter), Redline oil, Purolator Pure One filter and crush washers. If we got a bunch of us, we should be able to save some major bucks. Hopefully we could find one supplier and we could order it from them as a package deal. That away the forum wouldn't have to have any sales licenses but they would get in big time with the supplier....everyone wins....
It could be the "the370z.com" special I would do it but I don't know the suppliers... Just a thought Thx in advance

uhm, lower the jack/jackstands if you aren't using ramps..... or neutral and push (with someone in the car hovering the brake.
project: it's not worth worrying about, just take what oil you can get
