5th Gen: What did you do to your 5th Gen today?
Lets hear what you did to your 5th Gen today!
I swapped in my 01 SE "carbon" tail lights from my other maxi. Also painted the front grill black (not the Nissan Logo)
Should have the new tires mounted on my 18" 350z Touring V1's today.
I'll post some pics when I get them on!

sweet...thats the look I have, just black/gold
As for me, i cleaned the connectors on the MAF/TB/Cam sensors/o2 sensors...just trying to find out whats causing the acceleration to vary.
sometimes a rocketship of a beast (100% condition on a cold start), sometimes a biplane buzzing down the road (usually when warmed up)

Installed these 350z seats yesterday...definitely NOT plug-n-play. Took me around 12hrs total researching the design , creating a plan of action and executing.

Today... The Maxi-Pad got a spray bomb rust treatment, due to the sadness of rust crumbling from every corner. Unfortunately got busted for tint on front windows saturday. Michigan law is just fantastic, so they won. Sad day for the Maxi-Pad. 4" window stripe only.
Id love to post pics but the iPhone app hates me.
Thanks ORG.

Am I missing something? I thought the 6th gen cover wouldn't fit the 5.5gen!?
What did I do with my Maxima today? I watched her longingly. Staring, while watching the shimmer of rain run slowly down along her smooth lines. I then spoke her name: M.O.N.I.Q.U.E. Uhm, yeah...it rained. I did nothing.

Weekend Work
I spent Friday on my back taking the Warp Speed Ypipe off and putting a Stock on back on. All the bolts came out no problem - but getting the new bolts in by myself was a PITB. I replaced the bolts because the originals were pretty rusted - but the factory ones have a smaller non threaded section that really help getting it lined up. Getting them new flat top bolts lined up perfectly while try to get them threaded was torture - my arms and back are still sore. Anyone interested in a used Warp speed Y-pipe? The flexible mesh is in rough shape, but the metal accordian section is still fine and no leaks.

Tranny Pan
Almost forgot - while I had the max up on Stands - I also replaced the Transmission Pan. I was surprised that it never sprung a leak - like my Oil Pan. It was very very rusted. I put in new synthetic Tranny Fluid - and it shifts fine. There wasn't any problem before - but always nice knowing ther's new fluid in there. New radiator, themostat, hoses andrear rotors and pads are next.

Got a tailpipe to the back to follow up with the muffler delete I did a few weeks ago. Sounds great! Tried to keep it looking sort of stock with a y split tip but it whistled an awful whistle so I had to settle with a regular circle tip.
