after his apology there were only 2 posts regarding that situation - and one of them was form you.

Yes, I am aware of that. I was simply being proactive about a possible problem - not throwing a fit. Sorry if it came across that way - was not my intent. I just figured it was easier to (hopefully) stop it rather than have a ton of posts to delete later.

EDIT: saw apology

To topic - always clean any used part that is going to be part of your engine. Clear corners...not so much. Z-tube, spacers, etc etc etc, get them to as close to new condition as possible before putting them on, will save you a lot of headache in the future.

thanks man.. i was just excited and couldnt wait to put it on. i will though for all future mods..

and thanks cheryl for supporting me.. please dont feel any different of me as i really did not mean what i said.. i feel really bad about it, but i realize there is nothing i can do now except for think more about things before i say them in the future.. (i always say the wrong thing and make terrible decisions when im mad ) dont we all though...

im not trying to make an excuse for what i said... i know it might appear as i am, but i truely realize i was wrong, and i really need to work on how i handle things when im mad/upset/extremely pissed

its the kuruma z front

No problem. Just remember, it's your car, so the better you take care of everything, the longer it will last and the better it will run. When in doubt, go with your gut, if you think something is dirtier/older than it should be, clean it/change it. Might cost you a bit more up front, but will save you tons down the road by taking care of your car.

Also, I think your apology as well as your ability to see why everyone jumped down your throat is enough. We have all done/said stupid things, but it's when you stick by your actions when you know they are wrong people lose respect for you. You have the cards stacked against you being that young, but I'm glad you changed your attitude. I think you realize you are very privileged to have a G at such a young age and that's all anyone can ask. Too many kids come on the board and act entitled which really gets on people's nerves and causes everyone to hate you regardless of who you really are.
Just be humble and enjoy yourself, I think you'll be just fine. Happy modding.

sorry couldnt resist

lol sammy i actually thought it was hilarious..

and yea i need to make sure everything in the future goes well with my car.. thats why my parents bought me a G35, so it will last throughout college and hopefully i wont have to many problems with it til im out..

thanks for the help guys,
