well i know it doesnt really do anything performance related, but it sure looks nice. a matching oil cap is on the way too along with some denso plugs and my progress springs are sitting at the house awaiting install. anyways, sure it was 60 bucks or whatever, and to most a waste, i love it.

sweet!!! clean engine bay, is that a custom maxima strut and jim wolf intake. so nice and clean i presume you have a six-speed

 

Yep, that's a radiator cap, for sure!

I hope you read the instructions (in japanese) before installing it

 

looks nice and is good for raising the boiling point but for 1/4 of the money you could have picked up a z thermostat and really helped with cooling. however no bling factor. for those looking for a cheaper alternative to this cap, look for a cap for a 96 300zx TT which runs 1.1 bar compared stock at .9 -nismo @ 1.3

 

yes sir! custom maxima strut bar it is. got it from custom enterprises. they sent me 2 pass side mounts though. so i had to cut one and reweld it on the opposite side to make er fit. but all it well now. the intake is actually one i made up from various parts. and you would be right on the six speed part too......is there any other REAL choice in trannies?

jim

 

60 bucks man come on but it looks nice

 

A colder t-stat wouldnt help unless you can get the fans to come on at a lower temp to match.

 

actually im a moron, it was 33 bucks plus s+h. i was thinking of the oil filler cap. DOH!

jim

 

That was a low blow......

 

not a good admission - $60 for an oil filler cap is even more ridiculous than $60 for a radiator cap would have been!

 

already got that handled.

 

Why is sexing the engine bay so expensive these days?

 

cause its pointless
ANYTHING involving sex is expensive

 

ha ha ha

truer words have never been spoken

jim

 

people say you have a problem if you pay for a hooker...i say you ALWAYS pay for sex. at least with a hooker its just one lump sum of money

 

wow! dude are you a Jedi? you are wise as the sands are plentiful!

jim

 

you best change your location away from Burke Va if you gonna be talkin' about picking up hookers.

How's Baltimore, or Oklahoma, or wherever you are at this moment?

you never call, you never write....

 

Now we have stooped to pics of radiator caps???

 

Could be worse: I could post pics of my engine cover wax job!

 

i dont see any nismo oil filler cap hahah

 

Do they sell nIsMo gas caps?

 

of course they do. expect to run about 4 bar of fuel pressure.

 

Oh god...I'm afraid to post my little project now. At least it is unique.

 

I like unique. As long as it is not a modded radiator cap.

 

..............

 

And cost around 90 dollars.

 

I thought it was different. I always thought you didn't pay her for sex, you pay her to leave.

I'm not the only one whos heard that am I?

 

omg that is so ****ing awsome. Can you take higher resolution pictures. Need more pictures too.

 

at least your sarcasm isnt subtle

jim

 

ebay has Nismo valve stem caps!!
wtf!

 

Man!! that looks real hot

 

does anyone know how long these radiator caps last before you have to replace them?

 

That sure is a lot to pay for so little bling! I hope that it was worth it!

 

the life of the car. a radiator cap is not a "wear item"

 

I believe you already have! lol

I've got a pic that will fit in nicely with this thread:
