Low quality video, etc...

I'm the dude in the red shirt, jumping around.

Forgot to flick my fuel pump switch, so I manually ground activated it.. The metal shavings were caused by not enough clearance between the cam angle sensor and the cam gear bolts (I removed the timing belt cover)..

So far I have no complaints.. Though I am thinking of selling a hardware kit which would include the threaded barbed fittings, the mounting hardware, and the large fitting underneath (which I have YET to connect, and I think it is for the brake booster)..

Looks like the throttle cable will be coming from a 1992 altima since my local nissan tech says they are supremely long - I checked it out and they are HUGE.

Getting my 350z rotors turned down 1mm so I can fit them into those fresh HAWK pads..
