NIce keep me updated. suppose to check gerard monday, he ordered a fuel pressure regulator 4 me. suppose to get some plugs and the hawk from him probably nex week also.

u interested in buying the plugs together, that way we buy 3 boxes(4 each) an split the cost as opposed to buying 2 boxes each an ending up with 2 extra plugs???

Now realise the rear trailing arm bushings are liquid filled !! Rolling Eyes

Nissan again.................

boi i'd love to split it up....but right now i have absolutely no time to think about car stuff.....final exams starting next week and ah behind on the studying Neutral

all my worries would have to fix in ah one month period after exams.....i want to change my head gaskets(cuz oil sweating around the front cylinder bank) and timing belt as well........ so the engine would have to go into the garage...thinking of porting and polishing the heads one time....in time i'll know what i going to do.
