Cool trivia

At our Nissan/Infinti meet yesterday (our sixth or so in the last 2 months):

We had (among others) a 2002 Max with of course the VQ35, a 97 I30 with the VQ30 and a Q45 with a VH45DE.

And guess what?

The 2 Infiniti's had the billet Stillen oil caps and the Max the stock one and the oil filler caps from all three engines where interchangeable!!

Cool huh?

The real power is in the oil dipstick swap.

Did they really have 2 cyl?

We put a kids Yugo on the back of my buddies truck in High School. The owner came out and saw his car sitting in the bed of someone elses pick up. He bawled for hours till we took it out. Poor guy, but he's laughing now... dept head for microsoft. Bastardo

sweet...so will the oil cap swap and the dip stick swap get me from 15.6 to low 13s? What about the window washer cap? I bet that's good for like 5 or 6 ft-lbs
