Later in the day I showed the vids to a supercharger rebuild shop and was told the slow side bearings weren't pressed in fully to retain the shaft (my layman terminology not his) so in it goes. The bearings need to be replaced and hopefully that's all, but st this point wouldn't be surprised if there was more. Hate the idea of sending something in like this with basically a blank check but in this case it is better than me opening it up and hoping I fixed it peorperly and addressed any and all issues. Just want to be able to bolt it back on with no worries like I should have been able to do in the first place. |

They did here a few years back. It helped for a bit, then slowly people got brace again and now I'm not sure how much different it is from before except that you risk a $500 fine or something like that for distracted driving.

We've got some of the most self-centered oblivious drivers in the nation. They Might as well not even waste the money for stop signs or turn signals. Rant to be continued.

It's illegal to operate a handheld device while driving. I have used it as a gps but it's sitting in the cup holder.
I got hit taking a call when it first came out |

Heck, they even changed the decals on their cars some years back from "to serve and protect" to "courage, vigilance, pride" |

Seems to me that police tend to make up laws as they go along. I wouldn't have their job, but they shouldn't take liberties just because of the danger. I believe all in "leadership" roles should be doubly responsible and held to a higher standard. That's what being a leader is all about. Told you the rant would continue.

Looks good.
When I did my hood vents I went with round hole cutouts instead of the chicken mesh look (just my term no offence) but I think in your bumper like you have it that's the way to go! Nicely done |

Got my new to me 2013 370z Nismo about a month ago....seriously love this car. It had only 12k miles on it and was like new...so I decided to go OCD and do a ton of maintenance etc. to it to make it even more like new. I of course did all this myself as I love to turn a wrench....plus I hate the stealership...
New Serpentine Belt Changed Oil/filter Differential oil change Clean Throttle Bodies Flush Brake Fluid Bleed clutch fluid Transmission Fluid change Windshield wipers Installed New Battery: Yellow top D35 In cabin filter Replaced Spark Plugs Changed out ugly chrome headlights and installed 2015 black ones. R2c Intake installed Tanabe # T70132A axel back exhaust ...man it sounds sweet after taking off that sound proof anchor oem axel back... Door handles removed painted satin black and reinstalled Tail lights and 3rd brake light painted (nightshade + Upol clear) reinstalled Black lug nuts + black stem caps Only things I didnt physically do myself is: Get windows tinted Get some brand new Michelin Pilot Super Sports (definitely a major improvement over stock) Now I am going to detail it....clay bar, zaino wax, new floor mats etc etc... Man I need a break....... Last edited by SINISTER; 03-11-2017 at 11:24 PM. |
