From my post on this thread http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=119175 I thought I would add a little detail. I had been adding rear brake bias to the car. A little to much bias plus a brain fart lead to a spin in a braking zone and contact with a brake marker. One can of bondo, $10, paint who knows.
New clutch gave up due to an oil leak, took it apart and found a presure plate that had some strange wear. New clutch disc and lightened pressure plate $650. OUCH! And cost to surface the flywheel.
Having some valve train issues. John (jt1) has offered to help me work these out, 1 case of cheap beer $3.00 One set of lifters $129. Probably also need some shorter push rods.
Tore 2 CV boots with my little braking zone deal. Decided to replace all 4, New boots (Q 45 diff and CV axel set up) from Courtsey Nissan about $150.
Still need to get assorted gaskets, intake, valve cover etc, probably another $100 or so.
I'm sure there will be some while I'm at it that happens also. $XXXXXX.78
All in all still a fun weekend. Great guys, great track. Just parts, time and cash. Still cheaper than a weekend of hookers and cocaine, easier on the marriage also.
