Do us all a favor and do some testing on the Cosworths! |
Alright guys, I'm going to get some sleep. Gotta wake up early to work out before I head into the office. Hopefully I can sleep tonight:driving:

Otherwise, I would be happy to do a mod-by-mod dyno thing on the Z1 hoses and Cosworths vs. K&N's. I'm not trying to blow the filters out the door, and they will keep just fine until either you make up your mind, or someone else buys 'em, it's all good! |

Alright, got the shift knob done. I had no luck trying to keep the OEM from being damaged while un-screwing it from the shaft. :ugh2:
I think NISSAN is just trying to tell all of us Shift-Knob-Maniac that changing the knob is a no-return thing, you better get the new one fit!! LOL Anyway, just a tip for those who will get a MOMO in the future. Since the MOMO knob is universal fit, it doesn't come with a base like the one from PWJDM, and when putting the MOMO knob on the top of the shift boot, it fits very awkward because the plastic ring under the opening of the boot, because the plastic ring is flat and the diameter is much bigger than the MOMO knob, it makes the shift knob looks like sitting on a flat-platform. So, I took off the shift boot, and found out the other side of the plastic ring is actually concave instead of flat, and it was attached to the shift-boot by cable-tie. Simple step, cut the cable-tie, flip the plastic ring and tie it back onto the shift-boot with a new cable-tie, the concave side of the ring fits perfectly with the shape of the base ring of the MOMO. :tup: After finish the shift knob, I was, "tools are all here... mmm, clutch-spring...." Yup, remove that as well!! :tup: :tup: I didn't have a chance to test drive the Z cause the snow and wet-road outside, but yes, you guys are right, now I can feel the clutch point!! Pics: (Sorry about the blur, VERY VERY LOW LIGHT, I took the shot with only the interior lights on, garage lights all off, ISO was at 1600, f/2.8 with 1/2 sec, hand held) |

I think is sat on my knobs for like a week before getting around to putting them on. :) Pretty good looking pics too, considering the low light situation. |
Don't feed the troll. :wtf2:

I am torn on the spring issue. I have found that by wearing my Piloti driving shoes, the clutch in my car is NOT bad at all. I like it and it does just fine. Even wearing my Mizuno's to the gym it wasn't bad. I am almost wondering if 2012 saw a clutch revision, as I remember bitching very loudly about how it felt in all of the <2011's I drove.

Momo looks good!

It's sleepy time. G'night Mr. Onzedge, Nick, Kenchan, Alcheng, Zman8 and Import Convert. :hello:

I like the feel of it too, a bit harder than the OEM thus more solid feel when shift. Really want to try the clutch.... but the weather.... :shakes head: BTW, I notice some squeaky noise from the clutch pedal after I remove the cltuch-spring, might need some WD-40. |
