Thanks for the reply.
What I meant was how do I change the US units to metric units for use in Canada.

In other words how so I make metric units the primary ones and the US ones secondary.

and another thing i should have gotten 25mm spacers !!!!! i still have like a 5mm gap and i dont like the way it looks :-(
There is a DIY on putting on spacers. In that thread, there is a link to an easy fix for the vibration problems. All it is, is pulling out the hubcentric cone things and getting #10 SOLID COPPER WIRE (not stranded or rubber coated) to make a crush washer. That is all it takes.

I want to get a Z tube for my 06 coupe. Is there a difference between the 350 or 370 z tubes? Anyone?

You need a 350z tube. 370z has a different engine with dual intakes, I don't think those work on G35s

back to oil and such....

I'm going to do a major service pretty soon since she's past 100k...mishimoto radiator, themostat, hoses etc

I want to do a good engine flush/cleaner(kinda like seafoam) but something more engine specific. I want to put it in the crankcase, run it for 15 min and then drain.

any favorites?

I have a set of duals from an 08 (HR) 350z and I can't give those mothers away. Might see if I can adapt them to the wife's Expedition, LOL!!

^ No firsthand experience but I know peeps run HFC's and test pipes, and they don't have heat shields, so I can't see removing them from your stock cats causing any harm.
