Alright ladies and gents, I'm BACK!!! Been trying to sell my house for a few months now and now have a cash offer so I am now forced to get my car up and going Fast... It's crazy since my little vacay to Jamaica since I've been back everything just seems to flow perfectly..... It's funny what a week long of listening to Bob Marley does to you. :tup::tup:

Don't forget the pot

Soon I will be refilling the coolant system and was considering doing a 75/25 water/antifreeze mix mainly due to fact that it really doesn't get that cold here. Anyone else running this mixture or close?

Should work fine. I've heard of guys up here that run the same mix with a bottle of water watter with no issues.

That was my goal. think I missed a little heavy on the antifreeze. we have very similar climates so go for it. Don't forget the water wetter

Looking good and hoping that it all works out in the end for you. I have been reading this thread and also the other one where the guy from FL blew his engine.

Sweet! Looking forward to seeing the results, I bet you can't wait to be up and running again.

COSMO 06-21-2014 07:49 PM

I'm dying to drive my car again, especially since I can now run the max boost levels knowing the motor will hold the power... At the gulf for 4 nights so should finish it before next week is over. Thanks for the support..:tup:

I just picked up a set of nismo rims and could use a hand on spacers or no spacers..?? With my sport wheels I ran 25mm rear and 20mm front but I believe the off set is different on the nismo's..

NEVER run spacers!

COSMO 06-21-2014 08:26 PM

Have ran spacers on everything I have ever owned and never had any issues...

jwick 06-21-2014 08:41 PM

Fortunate and a lot of people are in your boat. I happen to be in the group that will never consider spacers but I'm an engineer and can do the math of the impact.
