Got the RE11s put on. Here's a follow up picture to how bad the front toe was....

4.1 each side making it 8.2mm total when it should be 1 on each side 2mm total. Live and learn.

Time for a thread bump.

Got my hands on a motordyne m370 intake, or it's in the mail at least, which will go on when I get time. Plan is to get headers before the end of the year and then tune it. Then next year I'll focus more on suspension and braking.

So a little update, I've been busy with work lately and neglecting the car. I got the M370 manifold but I had to tend to other business before doing so.

DIY: Repair Damaged AC Lines Because by Aftermarket Intakes

So like I mentioned before, bought the car used, it had Stillen Gen 3s on it when purchased. I didn't know to check and make sure whoever had the car before me installed the intakes with the hosing to protect the AC lines. This was not done and two years later I discovered an AC leak. Nissan quotes it as a 4-5 hour job which adds up considering the part is only $27. So I replaced it and wrote up a DIY just incase anyone else out there runs into this issue.

Hey John!

Where are you at? And definitely looking forward to meeting you!

Just ordered an Elite Engineering Catch Can! Should be perfect with the M370, special thanks to wstar for the catch can writeup and answering all my questions.

Next I've gotta get a tune. I can't decide between Ecutek and Uprev. The goal is a performance map, an economy map for best mpg, and if ecutek can do it, a launch control/no lift shift map. If ecutek can do that there really wouldn't be any need for racelogic which is way too expensive as it is. I guess just wait and see if ecutek follows through on their claims and at least be able to load multiple maps.

I am interested in a tune for ours as well. I have not done much research into it though.

I've only done a little, little bit. That said, I'm probably looking I to an etune. Idk too many dyno places around here.
