Message after a good 5-6 hours of work this is what I have ended up with. I feel so acomplished :P Before today I only knew how to change my oil and never tried anything else

The stock airbox that i took out to install my popcharger. Man it wasn't as easy as I thought. So many freaking screws that you couldn't see...

The oil change wasn't bad cause its the usual, but what was new about it was that this time I actually got my car lifted up and on jack stands for the first time...im proud of myself :P

Here is the highlight of my day...man what a freaking pain it was...Number 1, 2, 3, and 4 were easy, but don't even get me started about 5 and 6. For 5 and 6 I had to completely take the balance tube off, unlike the write up on tt.net. Anyways in the end I changed all of them and I cleaned the coil packs and the connectors. Im happy that I tackled this project. The old plugs look antique...first of all they are the B plugs that NGK doesn't make anymore and they look bad. Maybe I should sell them on ebay as antique :P

While I was changing the spark plugs, I convinced myself not to be such wussy and tackle another project while im doing all this work. So I think the cover off to paint and put the Nissan and TT.net stickers on it AND I tightend the cables...boy did the cables need a tightening. The cover is going under a good paint and will be probably done by tomorrow.

Anyways after a long day of work I can say this was the first time I actually really worked on my car. The only thing I had ever done before this was to change my oil.

Thank you for looking, now its time for me to go and wash up.
