A ricer would certainly claim horsepower.

I own one and have not done such.

 

if it's heavy enough, you have a nice weapon for foos that want to creep up on you while you're inside your engine bay

 

 

There's nothing to bite..

 

with all the asianess going on I guess I'm just feeling patrionized... lol

 

Ok too much miss information here. That spot is for the vacuum canister hard line In those pix its for the MEVI, BUT its also on a 99 USDM Maxima..... for the swirl valves

Thank you come again.

 

Hello, friend.

 

Miss information?.. STOP STARING @ MY AVATAR.

 

DIIIIIIIING.

 

Not that original, Ive been using a metal rod from another vehicle for quite some time now.
I have mine mounted in the front though. The tip has an angle on it and fits into my rad. support. The other end hooks onto the Hood latch. Its fairly secure. Ive propped it open at meets and shows and walked off for hours and its held up against the wind just fine, and my hood is quite light.

 

I was talking about Apparition's avatar, not claiming this "mod" as my own.

Cool to see, mine is angled at both ends as well, truth be told I will probably find a longer one from an S13 or something similar.

 

I actually saw euromaxima do it, and i " bit his style".

 

It's funny because there are lots of small things I have done but when I search it has been done in like 2001 LOLz.

 

I didn't copy you jack@ss haha..

 

Yeah, you must have had yours first....

 

nismology is only jealous cuz he doesnt have a hood hold up like urs freeway. the day his shocks fail and slams down on his head/fingers then he wud want ur setup.............
maybe not. but i must say oem's are the way to go. my shocks are blown....but the vice grips do a gr8 job!
btw nismology...umm........i need ur tranny......STAT! i hate doing 60 on the turnpike at friggin 5k rpms!!!!!

 

the mevi and mevi cover really clean up the engine bay. Anyway my factory struts went, so i went to my local autoparts store paid 60$ for one set of hood struts that came with a life time warrenty. I got smart, i replaced the hood sttruts in my 5spd, then i noticed the hood struts in my auto were dying, so i took those out brought them back and told them they were faulty, got new ones, then my 5spd ones went about 2 years later, brought them back got another set for free, then the ones in my freinds 4th gen went so i took his and returned them. I think i got my moneys worth.

 

No, you didi uit firwst.. But., I liked the girl in mie so I eneded yp doing tha instrad. (my god ,,kiran inchiban is the best bbeer ever)

 

That's one way to increase your post count.

 

The number of bullets in a reply increases the postcount no more than one long run-on sentence.

 

You have donated, there is a place for dribble like this.

 

We bring the OT to the world.. not the other way around.

 

WOWWWWWWW muhahahhahaha

 

I managed to knock 16 (could have been more) of those basterds down and I was still walking around talking to ppl.. haha, but the typing skills were off like mad.

 

hahahha not bad 16 is a good achievable goal good stuff

 

what kinda nissan is the hood holder from?

 

It is actually irrelevant as I think the hood prop from an S13 (not sure on S14) would be a better candidate. It attatches from the center of the radiator support to the middle of the hood latch. The S-chassis hoods are also a comparable weight to ours. I will update if I snag one.

 

Yup VQ20DE, straight from JP.

 

I'm suddenly reminded why I don't visit the 4th gen forum anymore...

 

This comment could have been made in an array of muffler and lighting threads.

 

I think he was reffering to the postwhoring.

 

I think you can get out of my thread. This is serious business here.

 

Well, anyways..


You gave me some insight.. I was looking around with the hood opened on a friends S14 and I think I'm gonna get a rod from that chassis and play around with it, hopefully I'll have some luck.

 

i have the same thing for mine, i used one from a 96 accord. i mounted it like a stock out would be with the grmmet and everything. i have cf hood, so i do not like using the hydrulic lifts

 

So anyway. Freeway, that hood rod looks like it's permanantly attached on the car right? Where do you set it down, where do you lay it down in the engine bay when you don't have the hood open?

 

The rod in the picture is not attatched. It COULD lay from the strut tower to the rear of the radiator support. I wasn't a big fan of this placement.

 

Sorry you're going to get banned. :ban:

 

maxima hood struts blow ! LOL! im still using vice grips years later. if only the a32 hood was lets say half the weight. so many VQ's here in New Zealand, I have seen some crazy examples here in 2.0, 2.5 liter options.
