Btw. Someone have the max sized tires I can put on base 18 wheels? I can't remember if it was 245/35 or 40. And 275/35 or 40. I'm ordering tires asap. Rears are shot after that trip.

just get you a piece of sheet metal about the size of a piece of paper.. you'll need a good pair of scissors to cut it in half, but first measure the oil cooler, then based off that cut your plate, and do it in 2 places.

Use rubbing alcohol to clean the sides of the oil cooler, then use velcro extreme on the outer edges of the oil cooler, do the same with the sheet metal..

I usually slide both pieces through the grill.. its a tight fit, but you can do it.

your tires were shot before you made the trip..:ugh::ugh:

I need to find out what's going on with Chase. Still haven't heard from the guy regarding my spoiler.

Do me a favor and check your oil levels and feel/look at the filter and cooler area to make sure nothing is leaking after the drive home.

You may have to play with adjusting the exhaust. Might be tapping the x brace or something.

All I know is I am not crawling under there to check. :icon17:

Lol. It's Lein's problem now.

Lein, the reason I asked about the heat shields is depending on the kind of noise you're hearing, they may be vibrating against the cat section of the pipe. I removed mine on the 370z. I left them on my 350, and they caused nothing but problems.

Oil levels look solid still. Will check for leaks and filter when I get to my house. Don't have ramps or jacks at Susan's. Don't hear any vibrations at all currently. Going to grab lunch, gas, a d go to lowes for the plate stuff. No word FROM Seb today yet and still nothing from Chase....
