Amar, good to see you have a safe set of shoes on the NISMO! Looking forward to seeing you and the NISMO back with us again.

Amar, I would call them tomorrow and ask the mechanic if he remembers the torque specifications for the lug nuts.

If he doesn't know, I would take them back to have them re-torqued to the correct specifications (dont know for Nismo).

If it doesn't sound like they will do it right, I would take it to another place or a dealer.

It's probably fine.

hazzazi · 10-12-2010, 09:43 PM

Thanks Frank for worrying....but I think it should be fine.

And Jon, I will try and male It more this time...hopefully we can go to Mir or something.

Headed to aam tomorrow for my oil cooler, hawk pads and to get my suspension adjusted. Might ask them to check out my service engine soon light as well.

I see an air gun. I dont see a Torque Wrench.

If it can wait until Saturday, I do have a cheap-o Torque wrench I picked up at a parts store for $20.

I always tell the shop personnel that I don't want an air gun near my car when they are putting back my rims/tires. And to used a torque wrench which I think is 95 ft. lbs. at least that was for the 350Z rims.

m4a1mustang · 10-12-2010, 10:42 PM

370Z OM calls for, I believe, 85 lb-ft.

oh do tell what its for if they check it. Mine just came on im at a lil over 12k miles now. I think its just a dummy light to get you to go back to the dealer. Or its supposed to be reset after each oil change and I never bothered reseting it.

Is it an actual MIL light or just the triangular orange one with an exclamation point? If its the latter, probably something less important (service interval, etc.)

Should invest in a code reader. They can be relatively cheap, and that way you can see right away if it's anything more than a loose gas cap. And if it is nothing serious, you can reset the light yourself.

My dad has one of those... cannot tell you how much money I saved on my Grand Prix by pulling the MIL codes myself. Definitely a good investment!

Morning everyone,

Does anyone have a link to a picture of a Red GT-R with spoiler?

My friend needs a spoiler and I want to show him the GT-R spoiler in case he can make it work.

I think I have seen some pictures by Jon@aam, and there may be one in there, I just can't recall the thread.

m4a1mustang · 10-13-2010, 10:13 AM

Ask Google.

Mine is the actual Service Engine Soon light (steady). Probably just a sensor or maybe evap leak, who knows. I'll know today.
