    The use of LC VOIDS YOUR WARRENTY-Nissan GTR

    Um, no, the R8 is $100K the Z06 is $70K Z06 has better 1/4mile times and braking times, slalom the R8 wins, but they're VERY close around a track. The R8 was on a wet track when Top Gear did their power board time so I won't fault it in that... They also pitted the R8 against the 911...

    Why is my New Clutch Slipping - proper break-in

    That's the runout Grim (warpage) They don't have a spec for the backstep, the shop I took mine to had a book that told them what it should be... Also, his flwheel is XTD, the clutch itself is a Action Stage 3 from Driftmotion (like I have)

    7m-Gte Head, 1jz Valve seals removal.. ):

    I'd get it under the lip and pull back to pry it up, then you can get under the lip even better and hook it off. The older they are the harder the material is...

    Why is my New Clutch Slipping - proper break-in

    Milage on a clutch is kinda pointless, it's constant use of it that breaks it in. Going on a roadtrip for a 1000 miles in one gear and never shifting won't break the clutch in. Also, I wouldn't trust ANYTHING from XTD, I bet the backstep isn't in spec... I have the same clutch and love...

    Stupid ebay radiators...

    True, but the only difference between the N/A and turbo is the fan and fan clutch, the rest of the cooling system is the same. EPC shows a difference in part numbers for water pump, but the -83 on the end just means remanned unit. Radiator is a different number as well, but there is...

    Stupid ebay radiators...

    Stock cooling system was designed for an N/A car, it's already marginal IMHO and an overheat will pop a headgasket in short order. I always feel harsh for saying this, but these idiotic chinese radiators DON'T fit, are made cheaply and you're getting completely ripped off buying them for the...

    Ceramic brake pads

    You didn't break em in hard enough if they left imprints... Most high performance pads squeel as well, street pads are a compromise of materials to keep them quiet but still stop well. YMMV
