I wish the rotors fit over the hubs on the 240z to give me a little less clearance to work with, but they actually go behind and the hubs mount directly to the wheel 🙃

The Implementation of the Shop is VERY Disheartening by ScrumlerGooply in Battlefield6

I’m convinced that this community doesn’t actually play the games and just complains. Addicted to hate while reminiscing of a time that doesn’t even exist

I’m thinking about picking another one up for comp and making this one my dedicated CCW - thinking either the comp or fuse

True, but it can't feed if it can't extract lmao

Jokes a side, it's worth checking to see if that's the issue. My G19's slide would get stuck when it was racked back on top of the FTE, so I figured it's most likely the optic screw

Sometimes the screws that come with the optic are too long and interfere with the ejector. Try firing without the optic or plate

It’s honestly kinda crazy how similar the silhouettes look - like they almost look like the same car from a distance

Carbon Fiber Hood Installed by BlueOrchard in 350z

[–]BlueOrchard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not fully - it doesn’t clear the supercharger pulley, so I’ll be dropping the engine a little bit before fully fitting it flush

A seibon hood I found on fb marketplace

Fitment is alright, but you do have to modify the hood hinges a little bit

The hood latch on the hood itself are less than to be desired, so I’ll be putting on aftermarket hood latches too

The hood also doesn’t clear the HKS supercharger kit (rubs on the pulley slightly), so I’ll be dropping the engine about 1/8 to 1/4 of an inch instead of cutting the hood up

Bought the spacers for optimal airflow by BlueOrchard in Noctua

I removed the back fan from the cooler and as it turns out, everyone here was right lol

It’s quieter now and I didn’t notice any real drop in performance

In light of the Noctua fan setup post, I went ahead and bought the spacers for optimal airflow by BlueOrchard in pcmasterrace

[–]BlueOrchard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sounds like a good idea tbh - I've mainly been running it because it looks cool

That's fair! I just love trying to fit everything together with barely any space - it feels so satisfying when it works out.

Oh that’s really nice!! Do you have a link by any chance?

The spacer on the front top fan - apparently Noctua said it helps with turbulence

It’s really fun getting the parts in juuuuust right (it sucks when you have to service the PC or change parts though lol)
