yes, ive searched.:icon_bigg Is it possible to use our younger brothers brakes? The 240 guys use the 300zx's brakes...

Thanks PB! I will have to use this... but instead of alcohol, think I should I use PermaTex like IJ suggested? Hmm, on the other hand alot of techs ive talked to say not to use any gasket creator like PermaTex on ring seals... maybe its different... ok enough of me thinkin out loud. Thanks...

oh ur right, Thanks IJ. that saved me.

Thanks IJ, i just got your reply. Are you sure I should use grease on the outside of the seal? I thought that lube was only suppose to be put between the crank and the seal? ...and no gasket sealer at all

haha, yes I understand its not a "fix all"... I may sound ... eh, dumb, but im mostly just trying to make sure I have a complete understanding of it before I do it. I've done homework before I started this thread and I know the one in the GB is not a graphing or one that can hook up to your PC...

Thanks Reign_Maker, Sabotage Thats all folks. I'll be abandoning this thread now.

Hmm, that doesnt even deserve a comment. Any Moderator want to get rid of this getto-sounding troll?
