What have you done to your MSP today?

So I put my summer wheels and tires back on today, but I noticed 1 of the hub centric rings were broken before putting it on the wheel. Do those things really make a difference? Wondering if I need to buy some new one's or if they are not really needed.

yes, they are pretty important...unless you like vibrations in your steering wheel, then no, you dont need it

Lol guess I'll have to order a new set. Are they easy to find or do I have to buy them where I got my wheels? Seems like they need replaced every time I swap the wheels.

Yea I can't imagine they would cost more than a dollar or two, but I need to get some ASAP so I don't risk anything. Time to make a run to pep boys or any other place that might still be open.

theres no risk, your wheel will just act like its slightly out of round. Unless you plan on doing racing or 100mph+ freeway runs, you'll be fine until you get it.

nice, I don't really want to buy $110 caliper paint and have it not show up right again, so it's nice to see the finished product... after looking for it, it wasn't comming up when I typed in the 350z part, so when I left that part out I found a general orange color with the color code Z48 found here http://www.automotivetouchup.com/choosecolor/choosecolor.aspx?year=2004&make=Nissan&model=All%20Models, I'll look around a little more and see if I can't find it, if I don't I might have to go with the hemi orange just since I know the exact match up of color code and finished color look, but let me know if that color code looks familiar, thanks

The color code are A17: Name color: LeMans Sunset

ahhh, thank you very much, was looking for the obvious "orange" in the tittle, and the color tab on the website I was looking at wasn't really orange, was thinking about getting that hemi orange, but I'm gonna go with the LeMan's sunset instead, I like the "flake" look in the color, which is really what I have been looking for, hard to find.. ordering a batch from G2 right now, hopefully will have it and painted by the end of the week

LMAO Thanks dude, Its a work in progress. Its finally starting to run right after all these years. Just gotta get the WGA issue resolved(should be this weekend) so I'm not over boosting randomly or hitting fuel cut.... not to sure which one im hitting. Im thinking of bench testing the WGA for 5psi and calling it good. I have a turbo smart knock off MBC to raise it if I want to.
 
I really wish I could find my leak. My back passenger floor board is soaking wet. And so is the front passenger side. But it feels like there's more water in the back. Any ideas? Of coarse it will be raining all week and I have no garage or anywhere to check it

PM theEZV. He had water in the EXACT same place. Might be able to help you...
 
well basically, i had to pull out his dash to locate and fix it. it was running along the passenger side seams. there's a glue type of stuff there, but it was all cracked up. so i re sealed allof it.
 
Got my new Forge waste-gate in the mail yesterday, now I just need to find the thread that explains how to install the internal waste-gate with out removing the turbo. Can anyone shoot me the link, I did a search and couldn't find it?

I really hope we don't have the same leak....

I plan to pull out the interior this afternoon(probably at a car wash sadly) and pull the carpet. Hopefully that will help locate the leak.
