    Does your oil filter look like this?

    This is my second change at 3500 miles using 5W40 synthetic oil. Look closely at the +40micron crap. If you are up to it, dont throw away your filter in your next oil change. Open it up at the base. Be careful of oil spillage. Share it here... thanks.

    Trouble starting

    Hi guys, I've noticed that the car takes a while to fire up, sometimes it barely manages to. Do you think a change of spark plugs will help this? Thanks, Paul.

    Oil Filter Change

    Time for an oil + oil filter change. Just after some pointers. Well I read on the s15 service manual and it says, when u feel resistance, turn another 2/3 round. Someone in ns.com says if you overtighten it, it will get baked into the engine and you can't get it off. So here I am. Just...

    Change diff oil. How the fark do I remove the godamn nut.

    Tried to change diff oil a couple of months ago, but I couldn't get the godamn nut off. I think it's sealed with loc-tite. Is there any special trick to this? Been to lazy to try again, But I have brand new diff oil just waiting in the garage. So might give it another shot.

    Okay, bit of a noob question :o but I'm not really up to speed on car electrics :confused: . I have a new battery for the car, it is nice and small so I can fit the FMIC but the terminals on the battery are larger than the factory battery clamps. What are my options to get the two to meet...

    ABS unit - fluid change

    Guys, I've heard the ABS unit is sealed and thus the only way to change the brake fluid within it is to change the brake system as per normal, then go out and activiate the ABS (to release the fluid within) and then re-bleed the system. Any thoughts? I've also heard the system is open and so...
