here my friends link.. they bolt right on.. and all you need is cut some of the heat shield and new brake lines..
note: i use 96 infiniti q45 vented rotors for me.. be sure you do this at your own risk.. get the right rotors if you want a professional job..

Can't wait to see the finished product!

Looks like I got to this thread too late to tell you....
The VH45 tends to only like NGK platinum plugs.
Other people have had issues with bosch plugs and pulstars in the past.

yes i have heard of that.. but the only reason that vh45 likes ngk is because they good on burning oil ... so that leaves with one thing.. if you putting high pulstar spark plugs make sure you check you vale stem seals.. and piston rings.. i did everything i could for my engine.. as you seen no slug therefore i have 189 psi com on 6 piston and the rest are around 176.. vales stem seals look very good but the real test is carb cleaner spray it clean them off and spray again to see if you have any seeping on the vale.. mine passed with flying colors.. thanks for the advice but just to let you know i do everything by the book...just don't tell everyone cause i don't want to write a book on here..

lets say you right .. and it wants ngk .. im going to blow the fuk out of that engine and rebuild one from scratch
been there.. done it.. and will do it again for all my peps on NICO...

[htbyrico]

Can't wait to see the finished product!

Why not get the real Nissan emblem on the plenum? 14041-66U00- or 14041-66U10- Not available from US dealers though.

Should also look into the finned diff cover...

Why blue hoses all over the place?

i do have one just want mine to be different for now..and the blue hose is high performance 300 psi hose.. can be used for water, fuel and oil.. that's the only color they had.. thinking about to at least changing the pcv hoses..still looking for the cover..

waiting on next shipment..

[htbyrico]

im sexy and i know it...

[Euphoricsoul]

im sexy and i know it...

You oughta hook up a youtube video of that baby so we can hear the engine.

[htbyrico]

yea that would be the sh** but have to do it right.. once im done the front end and brakes ill shot one up for you guys..

please dont rib on me i know JDM cars get lowered with coil-overs and have JDM rim.. right now funds are at very low capacity .. got to put food on the table for my family first.. these are 22" tyfun 703s i been had them from my old q45 just needed to shine them up.. seeing what they would look like.. so far i like it but love to have some 20" JDM mavericks wheels..

so sexy for my car too sexy !!


soon i will be rolling waiting on front end parts to get here from japan...

[htbyrico]

brake swap update...

cut off front dust plate..



check fitment..


check clearance..


brake line time.. i used my original.. grind down 3 treads down..



for who ever doesn't want to grind them down here a useful tip.. take out the cone insert that inside the hole were your banjo screw goes in.. i took a 1/4' ez-out and turn it around and around till it came right out..





rear swap...




front radiator support and nicknacks coming in next week..
i used all OEM 96 Q45 rotors they will work but please do it at your own risk
im on a thigh budget so trying to save until i get the front done then ill check funds to buy the right rotors and new pads.. painting them also..

sorry bout not getting back with you.. i put the word in but that part is hard to come by.. my cousin is in japan so he's been looking nothing yet unless you find one on yahoo japan its going to be a hard find bro.. as soon as i find one ill let you know..

if anyone else is looking for JDM parts please feel free to drop me a PM.. i can get most of everything but if its rare then expect a waiting time.. unless you found it on a Japaneses web sight..

no need the change the master cylinder.. so everyone know the stock Q45 front brakes are 32mm so your really down grading
its just the looks.. now if it was s13 yes you would need the change the master cylinder.. if you take all cone insert out your get better bite on your brakes, more pressure is created (warning) once you take them out your brakes are no longer be able to take on steel or custom made brake lines only crush washers... make sure you bleed them real well.. and don't forget about the bleed screw on the master cylinder.. that one is the first one you bleed..
