Just curious - why did you install a Nismo thermostat? I'm not questioning it, I just want to learn/understand...are you planning on tracking your car?

Your welcome Stone..

Im glad everything is good holmes. Brake bleed and thermostat was a great install...everything came out baller (meaning no issues/snags)..

If I need a bleed my brakes soon - I may snag the rest of that motul you have.. you wont need it anytime soon..

Them brakes should have alot of bite on them...Im sure you feel the difference with the SS lines on top of that..




(and dont forget about that bushing I saw torn....we may have found why your pulling to the right....I just ordered the SPL ones - was pricey but I cant wait to install them)

Got a carbon fiber grill. Kind of on the fence for the look. I might paint the face of the grill or something and leave the "inlet" part of it carbon fiber.

Hey VV,

I just asked for it for an X-mas gift. I saw that it lowers the temp for releasing the coolant to 68 and thought why not. I think with these 100+ days we've been having it was a good buy. Just looking out for the cars heart. Nothing planned for the track. Thanks for asking.

Let me know where you bought them and how much.
I'm really getting tired of holding the freakin wheel!
Thanks again Jake!

03' track... Soon to be race car.
Got my Stillen sways installed last night....haven't had time to mess with thdm yet. Raising the front back up 1/2" and evening out the rear tomorrow and re-aligning. Hoping to get the front camber back down to 1.5 instead of the 1.9 its sitting at now(with the ichiba camber arms adjusted all the way out) BTW....does anyone have any 10 or 15mm spacers they could stand to part with?
