Message	Called up Specialty Z and got two CHRAs. There is a write up on Z1's site which was written by a member on ZCar.com I believe. It is very easy, just purchase a snap ring pliers set and make sure you let the exhaust housing bolts soak in PB plaster for a few days. You will need a heavy duty mallet to smack the housings for them to separate. It will be a little difficult with the bolts and the housings not wanting to separate but that is about it. I purchased a snap ring pliers set from Harbor Freight for $15 and it did the work.

Probes suck, that's just all there is to it. - 300ZXpert (someday) on April 04, 2005 at 11:35 PM P.S. You REALLY are on here at ALL hours!
