So Today i changed my clutch. Turns out my input shaft seal was on the verge of busting a nut and it did so when i removed the throwout bearing. Anyways back on point.

Big suprise was when i removed the old clutch i found out i had a Nismo Flywheel. Made me pretty happy

So my question is what suprises have you found. Both negative and positive.

I cut out my frame rail to weld a new one in when I first got the car… found that someone had filled the fist-sized holes with insulating foam then painted it.  
On the plus side; the rest of the car looks like it rolled off the factory floor yesterday! All stickers, labels, etc, etc. still in place and shiny! I’ve had the car for 4 years now \<3

Oh yeah, and when we pulled out my peculiar-feeling sr last week, I discovered an os-giken gearset 🙂 I was young and stupid when I dropped the motor in; didn’t even notice.
