just ordered one this morning more work for chris lol

 

I know many of you fellas aren't necessarily the type to wrench on your own ride, but this one is pretty damn easy. In case you wanted to learn. Not to c-block Mr. Chris, but I'm big about doing all my own work personally

 

Drove to school. Installing ztube tonight!

 

I have a aramid gasket and copper tb spacer if anybodys interested. Both are new. I flew to kc so no fun wit the g today

 

yea i'm sure its something i can do, i don't lack the ability to think technically but i'd rather not miss any details..."IE not to over tighten anything" lol

 

Sadly none of my DNE buddies are here to laugh with me on this, but always go 100 ft lbs! Kidding of course, just had to say it

 

+1

Installing the spacer is a simple procedure with step-by-step directions.

I've done all the wrench turning on my car thus far.

It's the first car I've modded and nothing has happened so far

 

My maxima went to a technician once, but he was a good friend that worked at a Nissan dealership and he was changing out my timing chain, guides, water pump, etc. He also wrote a sweet love note on my oil filter before he gave it back. It said "F*cker"

The G got oil changes at the dealerships, but that was more of a CYA because of the oil consumption issues.

The Titan has been touched a few times, but only for recall work. It will get touched a few more times in the near future for warranty work.

 

None of the smiley characters are working for me lol but my intention was to input a sarcastic congrats lol

 

Doing your own work is where its at.. Its so much more rewarding to turn your own wrench.

I have done everything on my car so far.. Clutch and flywheel was the biggest job.

 

+1 on the DIY

How long did the clutch+flywheel take Dave?

Only thing I haven't done myself was my fender roll and hfc install....didn't have damn extensions for the bolts

 

The benefits of DIY are obvious, what man doesn't like the self satisfaction? No need to out stretch the topic talk about something else lol. This is strictly a torque wrench and power tool decision made by the lacking of both in my direction. Go wash your cars

 

LOL. My email notification said you replied with domo. I think it needs to be in all caps,

 

Oh whoops sorry dude x)

Didn't mean to make it sound like you suck for not doing it yourself ha

Perfectly legitimate reason because without a torque wrench things could go bad. I've read of dudes cracking their plenum and snapping bolts doing it without a torque wrench

 

Ditto, not meant to be insulting. Though I will say a torque wrench is very nice, as long as you don't go crazy with tightening, you don't really NEED a torque wrench. I sure as hell didn't use one when I did my install.
