OK, a few tips from a Nissan Mastertech first off always put a little dab of anti-seize on your plug. Because often times aluminum doesn’t like steel and you certainly don’t want to pull the plug out of that which includes some of the cylinder head threads. Also, when you put the cold packs in, make sure you put a dab of dielectric grease on the end of the boot this will help two things one help you get the coal out in case it decides to glue itself to the spark plug and it also helps seal moisture out. Also put a dab of dielectric grease in the connector that goes onto the coal for the same reasons. A big tip on getting these connectors off is to spray them with some rust penetrant, and that will soak in to the seal when you wiggle it around and we are immensely help getting these plastic connectors off which you’re always prone to explode in your hand, take care from Jay Tiger in Thailand

[@williamardenjr116]

Most plugs don't recommend you putting antiseeze on them. Especially NGK. I would not brag to much about being a Nissan master tech. Almost as bad as one from dodge trying to brag

[@jkeithv65]

I understand your point about the anti-sieze on the plugs, but then you really have to be careful when you're torquing them down because as you should know, that's going to change your torque specs and you could easily over torque them and strip your head.

[@jaymartin2625]

@@williamardenjr116 funny you mention that in my 29 years of automotive torture, I also achieved a master Honda tech and a master Dodge Chrysler Jeep tech. but the smartest thing I ever did is quit working on cars go back to college and achieved an engineering degree and finished up with a 4.0 grade average. not that I’m a genius I just did a whole lot of studying. i’m curious where you saw that recommendation I believe you, but I had never seen that recommendation. I worked on a lot of 300ZX is with the 3 L motor and some of the plugs were super scary getting out required a good shot of rust penetrant and many back and forth to get the plug out and sometimes they still carried some threads with them. once you put anti-seize on the new plugs, they always came out with ease. I always put a small amount of anti-seize on plug threads and I have never had a problem getting them out or any kind of drivability problems. It does have a change the friction coefficient of the threads so you have to be easy on talking them in, and there is a calculation for the type of lubricant, you put on the threads and the reduction in force to achieve the same clamping force.

[@mkllove]

Alex, For those long spark plugs with bad access, try a snug fitting piece of hi pressure ( ply reinforced ) fuel hose for starting and snugging down, then wrenching tight to finish with socket... this saves a lot of tiny 1/8 turns with ratchet wrench ! The hose is also MUCH better for "feeling" the threads to avoid cross threading damages. Scuffing up exterior of hose with sandpaper for your hands, aids in gripping with gloves or greasy fingers. To help with water intrusion (due to heat/cool cycles and capillary effects) in electrically sensitive areas, try the old "Aqua Net" hairspray trick ! The aqua net repels water from hair, and will do so on spark plugs and wire connections quite well, remember to let it dry on plug and wires before assembling since it's flammable when wet ! It acts a bit like the Rain X windshield product vs water. Do you know if the body wrap is blocking the door opening sensor(s) ? I watched other 12C videos and it seems like you don't need to swipe so much as hold hand in the correct spot for a second or two... is it temp sensitive, magnetic field sensing or an optical sensor ?

RON - The research octane number (RON) is defined as the percentage by volume of iso-octane in a mixture of iso-octane and n-heptane that knocks with some intensity as the fuel is being tested.An octane rating, or octane number, is a standard measure of a fuel's ability to withstand compression in an internal combustion engine without detonating. The higher the octane number, the more compression the fuel can withstand before detonating. Octane rating does not relate directly to the power output or the energy content of the fuel per unit mass or volume, but simply indicates gasoline's capability against compression.

@LSC Peter good job Peter

[@MurderMostFowl]

The McLaren dealers don’t call you back because you say more sophisticated things than “it isn’t working and my wife and I need to go to the golf course… Can I just drop it off and you bill me?” And they think it’s a prank lol

The fastener choices and quantities take me back to my days of working on Jags and Rovers...so many bolts

[@brianb7911]

Peter's facial reactions and comments when in the car cracks me up. Alex you are an amazing mechanic. Congrats on moving up in the KZbin world both of you. Best channel on KZbin by far. Very entertaining and good job on the editing and filming. Your not the average bland auto channel. I always look forward for you new vids. Being on vinwiki doesn't mean you made it. Be modest. Later.

LOVE the long episodes! Thank you for being my morning relaxation for today

[@scottstevenson8849]

I'm smiling because you both are smiling driving around in this. Only car people know the joy if getting a new car and showing you're friend what it does. Look check this out, oh and this, feel how it pulls 😄😄

[@RobertKlok]

Am always on the lookout for your amazing videos Alex, foe me they are a feast of recognition (frustrations and victories) .Being a DIY mechanic myself, I love these videos and they have helped me a lot to have more confidence in taking the more difficult jobs forward too (of course within the area of capabilities and the availability of the necessary equipment) Be blessed

Alex, Peter, and Max thank you so much for this wonderful content. I’m glad it’s you doing those spark plugs and not me. They did not look like fun. That is such a cool car. Keep up the great work. I am truly enjoying all your videos. One note though double check that air filter it looked like it was ripped at the top.

[@artusicam3]

This is my actual realistic dream car, has been for years. Glad you got yourself one!!

[@Dragineez774]

I've loved and followed your videos for years. I'm always deeply involved in your projects. But this one just pegged my interest meter to 11. Get this one going, it's worth it!

[@kd8rwd]

The house build is cool too . Billy's house renovation was neat to see as well

[@KeepingItKeith]

Peters face as you got on it was hilarious. Can't believe you didn't let him drive it.

[@tomasis7]

would you let someone to drive your 275k car? lol

[@hellandbackhoe]

The previous owner has to be gulping hard now!

[@KeepingItKeith]

@@tomasis7 Peter has helped this channel grow. He is a big part of them being able to afford this car. It's also not a brand new $275k car. I would 100% let him drive it.

[@nicholasvinen]

I'm sure he will get to drive it soon.

[@Dan_Kornfeld]

The car is looking absolutely brilliant! * Question - Has a piece of plastic been broken off of the air filter at the top (35:46)? If so, will that be a potential problem for the air intake system? Keep doing what you do‼️👍

[@odie0815]

95% sure that this is the sealing lip between the filter an d the cover of the Airbox it will result in some unfiltered air going into the engine - it will be a very tiny amount but some amount of air will bypass the filter i doubt that it will be an issue - but my ocd will not allow to reuse a damaged filter

12c owner, great vid, awesome info on the nissan parts! I will note that it runs great on winter tires as well. I didn't like the ISG sound personally. I've taken mine everywhere, including farm roads up in the mountains (pnw); as long as you drive slow, it drives great.

[@KemDIY]

I LOVE this new car series. Keep it up!! Such fun content and excited to see how many of these repairs you can tackle yourselves.
