Nissan quit selling them in 2011, which is when I bought them from Z1. They’re made by Rays.

Those S-Tune Wheels are worth refinishing. Keep them as long as you can!

I am jealous of the new NISMO wheels that came out with the RZ34 (LMRS), but i have enough multispoke wheels. already lmao.

256K miles. Time to upgrade the suspension.

BC BR true coilovers
Z1 sway bar end links
Z1 rear traction arms
Z1 rear toe arms

Was nice to finally get rid of the factory strut and tein spring combo I had for 200k miles. Now just need to further adjust dampening to my liking and cut a hole in rear panels for ease of access.

Tell me your engine has OG gallery gaskets…

Installed my Winters Quick Change, which made me hate life on the weekend.

Mine does at 153K haha. I have a whole bunch of parts and gaskets sitting in a box in the garage for when it decides to finally give up.

It sure does believe it or not. Those along with a water pump are on my maintenance schedule soon.

So bad news on the light pattern photos. i found out that one of my LED projectors on the driver side is not adjusting with the rest of the unit, so the beam is messed up. I'm working on an RMA right now. I will report how well the process goes.

What resonators did you replace? Those that came with the Gemini or OE?

Wow just going back to fresh oe would probably be a big difference with that mileage. I bet it's back to driving like a dream!

Other than the items listed above are all of your rubber suspension bits still OE and in good condition?

Wow very impressive, looks like a lot of fab needed for that swap!

My hands hurt just from looking at the work you had to do.

I believe it if the oil pressure is at spec FSM values! The issue has been blown way out of proportion on forums, mostly FB etc. to the point where potential buyers demand it has been done and if not it's now an immediate necessity without any investigation. Seems like a push by those offering the parts and labor.

I replaced the resonators that come on the Gemini y pipes. They were rattling and all warped on the inner perforated core.

Currently in the process of clamping on Vibrant bottle resonators to further tame the exhaust. They’re going on the Gemini mid pipes where there is the long straight sections of pipe

I wonder if anyone has messed around with megaphones on the VQ. I saw this video and I can't help but be curious:
