Beautiful day to work on the Altima

Post by **Cold_Zero** » Sun Feb 29, 2004 5:14 pm

The Altima got 3 7/8 quarts of new Valvoline Durablend 10-40. I also sanded some rust off the frame and re-painted the area to inhibit rust. Was a nice weekend to work on cars. Anyone else get the chance?

i did the usual mobil1 oil change on the altima (all damn 4 1/2 qts) and washed and waxed both the 24o and the altima. Although friday i got in a damn accident in the altima (let off the brake thinking hte person in front of me was going and bumped her

, its gonna cost me an insurance claim and a new front bumper) But all in all, not a bad day, and i changed the headlights on a friends clipse

i went out with my girl and got drunk and laid instead. She's working next weekend, so I will play with the car then. New rims and header should be here around then

I got out to work on my 240 today. I washed and cleaned out the interior. It's now happy again. It's been running great lately. Even left a few nice long tire marks for my buddies today!

awesome, glad to hear its running good, within the next month my 24o will be getting a big tune up (new plugs/wires/belts/hoses/gaskets) and that hould be fun

yea, its a big tune up, wish i had the extra money to start moddin her. First im getting some stock SE rims, then probably suspension/exhaust from there, lil stuff, then saving for the SR/RB

Yeah that's about the same as my plan. I'm not very happy wtih the stock hub caps. I got a hookup for the se's from a friend for 300 with tires.

This week has been wonderful temperature wise. Too bad it has been either raining or windy. I hope to get out tomorrow and fix my fog light in the WRX. Refi'ed both cars and dropped both interest rates. Both payments will got down as well. Yahooo!
