I recently swapped out my driver and passenger side coolant pipes (new ones were modified, welded and chromed) so I could delete the hose that runs across the timing cover. Passenger side pipe is already sold, but I still have the driver side coolant pipe. It hasn't been modified at all and still has the OEM gasket attached (although I suggest you spend the $2.50 at the Nissan dealer and get a new gasket).

GLWS Bro...

 

good luck with sale Marcus! I have all the modified pipes being installed tonight!!! just curious how hard was it to get the drivers side out?? I started trying but gave up since I couldnt get to the bottom bolt by the compressor.....or did you not do the install??

 

I did the install. Yes the bolts a bit of a pain to get out. Had to use a 10mm wrench and used small turns till it came out.

Good recomindation is to use new gaskets.

 

im going by nissan today to get new gaskets for mine....I just cant get down in there to get the bottom bolt...need to maybe go from the bottomside and see if I can get down into there.

 

Most likely will not be able to see what you are doing from the bottom side, AC in the way. You do have the entire intake out ? besides that there should be no reason not to be able to reach the bolts. I do not have small hands.

 

sending pm so I dont thread jack marcus

 

No worries Chris.

 

just looking out for you bud!

 

Now back to the regular scheduled program.

 

use a swivel / knuckle socket adapter and go slow. sadly, i've had to remove and reinstall that pipe a few times
