Hey Mark,
Thanks for all the help yesterday and info. I am going to book the car in to Euro for Thursday to get the 3m Bra. The guy seemed like he really knew what he was doing. I am going to wait to detail the car until they are done with it. -
Replied to forzaqt:
The forum DIY does not recommend the use of an air-impact. I recommend the use of the electric impacts that have less than 100ft/lb of torque and even then, use common sense! I have contacted Stillen to change the wording to omit the Air Impact option.
I have never 'spun' a stud using this method on several cars. He was able to replace the stud with an oversize one and thus avoid replacing/modding the hub. -
Hey man, followed your "how-to" on Stillen's site for installing wheel spacers.....BAD IDEA suggesting the use of an impact. I spun a stud :-( now I have to figure out if I need to replace the entire spindle or if someone makes a slightly oversized stud that is long enough.
I didn't have any problems for a while but the 14th stud I pulled through the spindle spun. Needless to say I stopped using the impact after that and didn't have any issues with the remaining 5 but I'm screwed on the one that is spun.
For the sake of others I would suggest you update your blog entry with Stillen. I've gotta spend at least $100 to fix this now....I'm not saying it is your fault but what I am saying is that I followed your "how-to" because it was on Stillen's site.
Here is the link > H&R TRAK+ DRS 15mm Front Wheel Spacer Install – Nissan 370Z : STILLEN -
What do the spacers do for the car? I see it all over the forum. I have a 2012 Black Cherry Sport. All stock, ran out of money, got a 2012 Pro-4x Frontier too. Couldn't pass up the offer the dealership was able to give me.

Thanks!! Just became member of forum and relatively new (and proud) owner of 2011 Black Cherry 370 with Sport Package. I'd like to post some pics soon. No major mods yet though

I noticed you installed the GEN 2 intake, what are your pro's and con's for that intake?
