okay its update time… kinda took a while but oh well here we go…  
I decided once and for all that the timing chain would no longer make noise in my car. So I pulled it all apart.  
Let me tell you thats no simple job. To get the oil pan off I had to drop the front sub frame. Why you ask? well the oil sump goes down inside the oil pan in such a way that you can’t slide it forward enough to remove it.  
I had to get the oil pan off to get the front of the motor off… here are a few pics of the repair to the tensioner.

![http://bsbox.ca/steve/240/IMG_0134.jpg](http://bsbox.ca/steve/240/IMG_0134.jpg)  
that is the lower tensioner that was causing my issues.

Annoying oil sump.

After the motor was fixed I sent the car in to get my new carpet and a black headliner made. I will have pics of this this evening, but for now we will move on to what arrived at my house last saturday.

I am going to run the nissan fast program tonight to run the serial number of the clip but from what I understand its a 1998 clip, obviously a blacktop. The compression is good.  
Along with the clip came the full digital climate control, and a nice guage cluster.  
I have taken out the windshield and cleaned the clip so I don’t get cut all to hell from glass shards.

Last night I finished the install of my 2 amps. I hid the stereo stuff down in the spare wheel well so no one would see it. I know that not many people here are into car audio but I need a decient sounding system when I am driving down the road. here it is…

![http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i6/sethable/DSC_0028small.jpg](http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i6/sethable/DSC_0028small.jpg)

and yes I realize that I didn’t need to go through all the effort of the timing chain if I were just going to buy and sr… but the clip came along and it was exactly what I wanted, I had to buy it.

Wow man that stuff looks amazing, I wish I had the skill and equipment to do that kind of thing :(. I would make my car nice from the ground up (can’t even drive it now anyways) but I wouldn’t even able to, and it’s way to $$ to get it sent to a bodyshop for that. This is inspiring me lol 🙂
