I'm not in any hurry, but I'd like a rough estimate on 1 drive shaft and the other front wheel bearing on a '96 Nissan Altima 5 speed. I already have the remaned driveshaft.

One step closer to being able to do the doorhandle. Fucking paint is going to probably run $75-80 (called the carquest paint shop in N. Raleigh). Pearl tricoat is a bitch sometimes...but I'm probably going to have those guys mix it up on Saturday.

bttt.

I have a lot of the Sherwin-Williams paint stuff (hardener, clear, BC stabilizer, reducers), but I don't trust myself shooting a three-stage. Basecoat, pearl, clear. And believe me, it is a genuine bitch to get it to match.

Not a problem...do you want to replace the T-VIS valve, or do you want me to remove it and try and get it to stop sucking air around the shaft? I am thinking that's where your noise issues were coming from...high vacuum at idle, especially at the closed butterflies.

Seriously, though, I'll be glad to work on it...but from what you've said earlier, you might want to pay more attention to your clutch.

Got the paint last weekend, was thinking of trying to spray it this weekend but was busy with other stuff. I imagine matching it won't be fun, but we'll see. The guy at the paint shop suggested spraying a test piece of metal in several "stripes" with increasing number of coats of the pearl over 2 coats of the base, then clear the whole thing and see what comes closest to matching what's on the car and go with that. May try that, if I can find a decent sized piece of metal and I have a few hours.

Also, do you have a set charge for struts? The air struts on the front of the car are starting to go, and I'd like to do them before getting alignment and new tires up front. Which needs to happen soon, as the right front tire is showing cord...

For standard struts, my charge is usually 30 bux a strut, unless there are issues with plumbing in air lines or plugging in actuators or sensors. Then it may be more.

But yeah, I'll do struts all day long.

Feel like change my fuel filter on a 87 mr-2? I've had the part forever, just never got around to it.

I can leave it with you if that makes it easier some day.

Yep. I can do it. I'm usually home most evenings around 8:00...sometimes earlier like today.
