Jay25 & his brother came upto NJ to help me install my V2 that i got off Jaime a few months ago. We are also tackling the tranny today with an ACT clutch and Spec lightweight flywheel. So far so good, the S/C is in and it only took 4 hours to do! Im pretty sure they hold the record for installs, lets see how long the tranny takes. Here's a few teaser pics until i get the car cleaned up and outta the garage. The cold weather sure as hell doesn't help. But boy does that V2 sound badass

 

 

Looks good so far! I doubt this will be your last mod.

 

congrats man! im jealoussssssssssssssssssssssssssss ur car keeps getting better and better

 

Jamie is a good guy. He and Beggy gave me there numbers to help me out with my VI electronics install.

 

That's where Jay-dog's been

 

hey this is Jaime, I told arnaud hey tell that big monster to stop by! he replied he lives in Ma that aint going to happen. Is **** cold out here. I am hanging out w/santa and ****. Working on next years list and installing this tranny in about 5 mins. SCer install took 4hrs 15 mins what a joke!
will post later.

 

Congrats man. You're car gets better and better all the time

 

that looks crazy kid ! keep up the good work

 

i LOVE that color

 

? Looks like a Fidanza unit

 

Fidanza is SPEC, same thing just different distributor, seeing as Fidanza was on backorder everywhere.

 

wow, that looks great!! I see a big moding future for you

 

Yeah, I'm not down in that neck of the woods anymore so I'll have to plan a trip to ATL soon....

BTW, tell Santa to send me some cash. It's colder up here and its going to get colder tomorrow. We are looking at wind chills below -35.

 

Last mod? I doubt it. In my case, installing the SC was what started the laying down of serious mod money. SAFC, Z32 injectors, Z32 mafs, JWT ecu, MEVI, wideband O2 sensor .... Then there's the Arias pistons and Crower rods to think about. The list never ends.

 

.

 

oh boy, don't encourage me to buy more mods!!! I gotta stop, i need to save my money!

 

time to start buying cup noodles

 

how much was that flywheel? and where'd you get it from. I've been thinking about getting a lightweight flywheel.

 

Hey jaime, come help me install my suspension :-D You havent been to the sunny side in a while

 

Looking sweet...I wish i had that sort of money. Still just a waiter with middle mods money.

 

Jesus I wont be able to function in that weather. My hands started stinging just lowering the car today.



Luke, Id love to come to Florida but is too freaking hot out there. I prefer to go to home sweet home Atl. Not too cold not to hot just right

 

New Pics as of tonight:
Out with the old:


In with the New:

 

The Mess I have to deal with tomorrow:


Well worth it when i get this bish on the road :-)

 

so, where'd you get your flywheel from?

 

ClutchDepot.com, call them up and ask if they have any SPEC lightweight flywheels in stock because those fidanza's were still on backordeer last time i checked.

 

How long did it take to drop that tranny about 7 minutes

 

Ha i wish, took a couple hours to take it off(old clutch/fly and put on new clutch/fly) only cause my bolts are rusted and covered in salt/sand. But putting the tranny casing back on took about 10minutes I'd like to see the stealership do that with all the tools they have.

 

Haha, that's great. I wish I was that mechanically inclined. I see all these heaters in the garage. Is it that cold out there?

 

Geez...Jaime went all the way up there to help you install the SC? Wow...that should said something about him for those of you know don't know him already. Jaime has always been a great guy. he has helped me out quite a few times. Thanks Jaime.

 

hopefully ill see this tomorrow. .gotta pick up suplies for my 5 spd conversion..

blake

 

mmm boost reminds me even more why I want a 4th gen.

 

Its been in the 40's-50's the past couple days, but only gets really hot (high 80's) in the late afternoon

 

Jay25:

It took a bit longer then that. Thanks to his right passenger axle which was stuck courtesy of the salt and rust. To put on the tranny took less then ten mins on a 3 ton car jack on a piece of wood. Ghetto but gets the job done. Then once again the right axle jammed when was it ever going to stop. Axle was on in 5 mins after maximarider pounded it with a rubber mallet

Today it will be done just have to put the fender dirt protectors and a test drive and it will be done

 

This definitely will not be your last MOD!!!! Jaime is a good guy and knows his stuff!!!! I wish I had some boost.....

 

Very nice. Keep us posted!

 

MAN I HAVE NOTHING BAD TO SAY.. A LOT OF GOOD TO SAY .. MAN, JAY COME FIX MY CAR.. SO I CAN HANG OUT WITH THE BIG DOGS....

 

Have fun with it once it gets a little warmer outside!

 

NICE! So you actually came to NJ to help with that install...you sir are a good man. The work looks good and looks like it went really smooth. Some of us aspire to be just like you guys.

 

arnaud. i will be racing you at englishtown! and if my maxima loses, i will race you with my S13! and if i lose both, then i challenge you to a drift showoff in the parking lot there! muhahahaha muahahahha...dude, your setup is simply amazing! i actually have a spec stage 3 clutch and fidanza flywheel in my s13. i didn't know they were the same company. spec stage 3 clutch feels a lot like stock pedal pressure, but engagement is a lot sharper. it's made to handle 450ft/lbs. basically, it's a sprung 4 puck! spec probably makes them for maximas since the clutch family line is so similar. if my clutch starts to slip more, i might consider a spec stage 2 or something.
