Big hold up: the nismoshop is holding my speed sensor hostage. I ordered my parts on the 12th and got an email saying they are on back order (3 days). 8 days later no news. WTF!
Also, wheels debate...currently in favor of MB Battles 18x9 +17 offset in bronze

Or, just saw a small pic in the newest wheel and tire guide on newstands now of the Velox Phoenix Project TR-1's. I almost crapped myself they are so tight. I am in pursuit of the info from Velox. No online pics found.

I don't see a whole lot of people with the Battles in that offset or at least in this area. First things first, coils.

Got my special package from West Covina (thenismoshop.com) including my S14 MT speed sensor, gear pinion, and clip. $150 shipped. Installed this after noon. Now, down a pint of gear oil which is currently residing on my t-shirt and LSU hat. Gonna hop in the car now and first check it's working condition of the speedo, and then reset the ECU; see if my orange friend goes away. Wish me luck. Keep ya posted.

I'm hoping I have more than half a quart left. What kind was it exactly? I'll buy and fill it back up in the next few days.
*Update*
Now throwing DTC P1445 - EVAP canister purge volume control valve (faulty or shorting out). Either way I decide to sort this out, I probably need to pull the intake manifold and check the harnesses and the solenoid itself to make sure it's not stuck open. Contacted the parts department at Courtesy Nissan in Texas, yeah Texas. Their diagrams and pricing are decent but their SKU #'s are not complete. I am contemplating pulling the intake manifold this week to troubleshoot and completely replace if no fix if found. Total replacement could be anywhere from $174 - $255 depending on the deference between two exact sku's on the diagram.
Let's all say a prayer for a corroded harness or something small.

Jon is the man. Plain and simple.
To give you a little background he and I pulled apart the fuel and vacuum lines on my '96 14, and if you have a 96 with a CEL, fucking sell or trade that shit. OMG! What a pain the ass this has been. Pics are soon to come. Anyways, after removing the upper radiator hose, vacuum lines, fuel lines, and wiring harnesses. We traced back the DTC 1445 code to the EVAP purge volume control valve itself. No shorts in the ECU or any of the looms running to or from the engine bay. We still haven't been unable to remove the upper intake manifold from the lower. If you are attempting such a feat, pull the motor, you'll thank me later.
So, I went to Nissan today to get the correct pricing on the EVAP PVCV, and the list is $314, I almost choked and fucked died right in the Nissan showroom. The Bill, being a drifter's advocate, took a hundred bucks off because of some earlier confusion. They have the valve in stock, and after telling Jon this, he finds one from some cat in ATL for $35 shipped. I paid my whopping $4 for the injector insulation ring, which is just a rubber washer that the injector plugs into snuggly while in the head.

We do still have our fingers crossed that the valve on the way is good. Suposedly these valves never go bad that is why they bury them in the manifold...yeah right.
