We have moved! Our new home is the Treasure Coast area of Florida! Stuart, Florida to be exact. Its a nice day, I think I may go find a good spot for a shoot!
I've also ordered the Nitto NeoGen ZR tires! They will get a lot of use at Moroso raceway very soon!

Installed SS Braided Brake lines by Technafit. FYI if anyone has these, use the stock bolts where the line connects to the caliper. The included bolts in the kit are rather fragile and break easily. The install was topped off by new brake fluid, ATE Super Blue DOT 4. Look for pics sometime this week!

I had my uncle reset my SES code, which was P0420. The more I researched, the more I was leaning toward the #2 - O2 sensor being at fault. I also ordered a second O2 Spacer. If the light comes on again, I will be installing it with the first O2 spacer. I also changed my oil, nothing less than Mobil 1 5w30 full synthetic. On February 1st I will be going back into the garage to flush my fluids, bleed my brakes and install my SS braided brake lines.

Calling all you Nissan techs! My SES light came on over the weekend. I am working on a solution. Unfortunately when I installed the header I did not have time to extend the O2 sensor wire to reach the 2nd bung on the header, which is where it is supposed to be. As far as I know this is the cause of the Check Engine light. I have found a simple extension wire on an autoparts website (<- click for part listing). If anyone has any other suggestions please email me. Of course I will be consulting my uncle, the master mechanic before I make a decision.

Thanks to mongoose228802 (of the www.myspecv.com forum), I have a pic of one of my runs at the Hershey Autocross!
October 29, 2007
Autocross is a blast! Check the Extras section for a map of the track! Had to get up at 6am to get there a little after 7am. For my first autocross, the weather was not cooperating. The first heat started around 10:30am which was my heat. It was rainy and slick, but somehow I managed to beat a Corvette AND a BMW, with a time of 85.46!

Auto Cross this weekend at the Giant Center in Hershey, PA! Registration is $30. I will be there! Email me if you plan on attending! Here's the link:

Got my car back from Brenner Wednesday, I was actually trying to break it as I was pulling out and doing a burnout in the parking lot as I was leaving the dealership (As the entire sales staff is staring at me HAHAHA!). I just wanted to be absolutely sure they did the job right this time. Thankfully nothing broke. My car is currently good to go for repairs and maintanence Next stop an oil change in about 2,000 miles.

Brenner Nissan called about my car. They said something with the axle was broken, involving the splines. They claim it was not their fault, it just broke by itself. Which we all know is a load of shit, due to the fact that I maintain my car personally and nothing up until this point has happened. I should have it back by the end of the work week.

Received my car back from Brenner Nissan. Everything seemed fine, until I was pulling out of the Carlisle Giant and I shifted into 2nd gear. My car made a loud noise then all of a sudden no power was going to the wheels. When I would push the accelerator, I could hear a grinding noise. So I had to get Lebo's Towing to take it back to Brenner.
