Rusty's Nismo Journal

That's what I needed to know Rusty. Thank you for taking time from your vacation to answer my question.

My only concern is making sure that the duct fits flush with the bumper. I noticed that the top outside edge of each duct has a slight contour to match the bumper as it curves around and I didn't want to cut a hole that was an inch out of alignmnet one way or another.

Again, apologies for interupting your vacation. Have a great time and check back when you can.

As for up and down. I position the template about in the middle of the body line on top and the spoiler on the bottom.

I can't get to my Nismo for a couple of days to look at it. I'm on vacation, 4wheeling my Power Wagon.

If you still have questions, feel free to ask.

Hey, no problem.

I check this forum a couple times aday. LOL It's an addiction.

Right now I'm on my laptop with a dead slow wifi connection.

Like I said. If you have questions, I will try to answer them.

Did a track yesterday after doing a 12hr nightshift. Talk about being wiped out.

Well anyway. Had a good time and still learning. Finding my limits are higher now and needing to change a couple of things on the Nismo to suit. Like I need coilovers now. On a couple of corners, feel like I'm riding on the bump stops. Which is beating me up some.

And need more camber on both front and rear. Need camber arms for the front. Here's a couple of pic's of the tires. Will post video's later, after youtube gets done with them.
