damn, i feel so stupid

[vietdood]

i was prepping the 240 today so i can install a new clutch sometime this week or next so i changed the brakes on the car. reinstalled the battery, re-wired the sound system. After i rewired the sound system i decided to pull out my 240 and take it around the block for a few spins since it's been 5 months that i last drove it. i just realized now that i forgot to take the lug nut key off of the nut before i took the car out and now it's lost somewhere around my block. i checked the garage and the area behind my garage in the alley if it was there but no luck. now i gotta wait till tomrrow when the sun comes up and look for it.

i feel so stupid and i hope that a car didn't run it over and drag it off somewhere... but damn, driving the 240 again felt incredible :love:

hahaha yea, the weather got to me. I found it yesturday, it was sitting in a pile of mud on the side of the road. makes me relieved though because i didn't want to go to the nissan dealership and order one.

i love the weather outside right now, i'm thinking of taking it for another spin (with the lugnut key tucked in the glove box) hahaha

[TypeS]

ooooo count me in, get another convoy goin:thumbsup:

lol i dont know WHAT I'd do if i lost my lock nut man, probobly couldnt find anything like it anywhere but japan.

[SilverBoost]

I'd be in too for a little "nissan" cruise.... of course I'll have to wait unti lmy new fuel pump gets in. D'oh!!

It's a bitch to see the sun shining like this and to have the car in the garage with parts all over the place. :(

[vietdood]

lol yea that sucks. maybe a road trip to cochrane for some ice cream would be good


i just bought some redline MT-90 gear oil for my 240, i heard it does wonders for the transmission and the syncros. have you guys used it yet?

Yeah i did the change last year, so far so good. Smoothed it out a bit, nothing spectacular. It was good to change the fluid out anyways i had alot of shavings on the plug.
