nice G and congrats. not to sound like a dick though, but why post this in my thread? you should make your own intro.

 

changed the trans and diff fluid yesterday. pretty straightforward.. honestly i can't tell a huge difference. i used nissan MTF in the trans, and it does feel a little smoother going into reverse and first/second but not a big difference at all, which i guess is good since it probably means the 2 previous owners didn't drive it hard.

just thought i'd make a little update

 

been a while, just took the G out of hibernation a couple of weeks ago. haven't driven it since the beginning of january due to salt being thrown on the roads for any kind of precipitation around here


hit 36k about a week ago (~500 miles driven since nov. heh)




installed a nismo radiator cap and oil cap..






also had a chance to finally use the tuf shine tire clearcoat kit that i bought a few months back. this stuff is fcking awesome!
i did the inner sidewalls first, strictly for protection purposes so they don't end up dry rotting on me. yes i laid the wheels down face first, no they aren't scratched, the edge of the tire is actually all that's touching the ground. i made sure of this before i did it.

first scrub with the cleaner-



after 6 times-



cleaned and dried-



3 coats of clearcoat-



did the outer sidewalls after, same process just weren't as dirty.
all done-




i'll report back on how this holds up over time. so far it's been great and looks amazing.

 

Why are your wheels resting on their faces on the ground?

 

i guess you failed to read this...

 

Can you post up that tire stuff whatever it is? Id like to just have some of that cleaner! For some reason I never can get all the brown nasty crap off of my tires?

 

this is the kit i bought - http://www.detailedimage.com/TUF-SHI...ance-Kit-P545/
they also sell just the cleaner in different sizes (which i need more of now) - http://www.detailedimage.com/TUF-SHI...P549/22-oz-S1/

 

Nice car! Crazy low mileage for an 04, looks to be in great shape.

And I hate to beat a dead horse, but those wheels... In my opinion are possibly the ugliest things I have ever seen. But hey, different people have different tastes!

Nice car man

 

thanks man! hahah yeah i'm used to people hating on the wheels. i actually used to think they were ugly at one point too, but they've definitely grown on me, i think they are awesome.

 

This thread is cracking me up with people posting up their own rides and then slamming your wheels. Lol on the replies and OP enjoy your vehicle.

 

Nice ride! Was wondering what that color looked like when I saw different colors for parts I was checking out.

 

I don't know about anyone else. But I love super advans..

 

seriously lol

thanks! i love the color, looks almost black in certain lighting.

yesss another person! haha.

 

I am totally jealous of 'no sunroof'! Clean ride! Congrats.

PS That S14 from your Dragon meet is freakin awesome

 

totally missed this. thanks man! yeah his s14 is pretty sick, it's for sale if you're interested..


just replaced the in-cabin filter since i have no idea when the last time it was replaced. i followed the diy video on infinitihelp.com and it was super easy to do.
