yes whore-jay! lol im gonna run a fuse with 0gauge wire. because the stock fuse will soon blow. its for safety reasons, wouldnt want the battery to blow up. from the advice im getting, in my case id need a 200amp fuse since i have a 220amp alt. ive been told not to run a fuse higher than the amps of the alternator.

i 360'd off of a turnpike exit, jumped a curb into a mud pile about 3 feet from a ditch... F'n furious about it right now... new tires too... apparently they suck... luckily, so far looks as if there is just mud, no noises... wobbles or creaks that are new... i am going to jack it up here in a few to get a closer inspection and i am praying..

overalll i think it could have been much worse... but WTF!!!!

Finished the 100,000 mile tuneup tonight. No oil leakage on the the rear (fire wall) valve cover, replaced it anyway. Used some grey silicone (autozone) on the whole side next to the timing belt. Crossed the threads on one of the rear (firewall side) bolts that hold the intake manifold in place. Hopefully thats not a problem. Coolant all over the ground thanks to two small coolant hoses that you have to disconnect. Replaced the valve cover gasket and upper intake manifold gaskets too. I started the Altima after the install was complete and the idle was normal. Cross my fingers that I tightened everything properly. I considered this process to be a PITA. There is one small bolt on the firewall side that holds a hose on a bracket... no room in there to work.

F*k My Cars Life...

So I wrapped my stupid steelies in some new tires today. My mechanic dropped it on the Hunter machine. And after it was done i found out I will need a new rack (not my rack, thats just fine). The one thats there is leaking...


So whats the best way to go about this?

I used the RainX Headlight Restoration kit which worked wonders considering what they looked like before. All while sitting and staring at the Tein box in my garage while my Kyb's are taking their sweet ass time to get here
