My Nitto Invos are significantly quieter than stock. Asymmetrical tread pattern helps, too

H&R 15/20mm spacers installed
Hood damper kit installed
Z1 silicone hoses installed

(The engine bay needs a good cleaning - shop spilled some coolant)

nmjaxx9 · 02-27-2013, 03:53 PM

Thinkin of a sound system, maybe dual subs and a couple speakers

UnReal · 02-27-2013, 04:34 PM

Got the beast cleaned up on my lunch

I've been getting a CEL more often now from the test pipes so I stopped being lazy and picked up some RTV and took them off and threw some RTV on there and reinstalled them. Haven't started the car yet. Waiting for it to cure a bit more.

Got a bomber hat, goggles, and my leather jacket and went for a drive and to snap some photos in my hometown:

Gets way more thumbups than the 370 haha. One couple today asked me if the car was from the Bahamas because it's right hand drive.

SurfDog · 02-27-2013, 08:48 PM

Quaife LSD arrived today install next week?

And you told them no it's from the USPS?

JK JK.

Your car looks awesome!

The Z developed a rattle in the exhaust a week ago and I figured it was a loose heat shield- until yesterday when the service engine soon light came on. I took it in today for service and as suspected the O2 sensor had come loose to the point it was rattling and sucking air in. I had TPs installed a couple weeks back at a speed shop and apparently they didn't tighten the O2s down enough. The dealer was nice enough to not charge me for the non warranty "repair" and cleared the code for me. CEL code was P2A00 according to the invoice.

While I was waiting I stopped by the part's counter and asked if I could buy a Nissan branded bathroom sign. He looked at me like I was crazy (which I am, granted) so I pointed out his restroom sign. He just shook his head...
Nismo drivers I swear!

On another unrelated note I visited the attached Infinity dealer and scoped out the new M56X with the aero kit. After having driven the QX56 for business many times I can tell that car must be a ton of fun.

The car most likely is running too rich. I have hfc's and am getting multiple random misfire amd lean/rich code. Time for a uprev!

What is RTV?

She was tinted yesterday to the legal state limit. I don't see much difference, but hey, it was free anyway.

Looks good, ever since I got pulled over for tint and I went lighter I actually prefer it over the super dark setup I had before

I agree. I think it's just dark enough. Good job. I hate the super dark setup too...

Btw Pintsize725, is it 30% or 25% tint?
