Default T Minus 14 hours till I get my S!

Hey guys Im picking up my 01 silver stone tomorrow and I'm so excited I'm going crazy. I'm already addicted to this message board lol. You guys are really knowledgable and very helpful with every question I've had so far. I plan on doing some general service on the car this weekend and wanted to know what the consesus was on using mobil 1 in these cars, as thats what I used to use in my prelude and 3000gt. I'm attaching a couple pictures to show my previous cars just for fun. Anyway my names Sean and I'll be joining the Ny Metro Club as I'm from Northern Nj. Im also going to purchase a membership to s2ki tomorrow as soon as it's official.

Here's the new guy in town.


These were my first 2 sports cars a 93 3000gt and 97 h22 prelude 5spd.


And this is my 2005 altima that I'm trading in on the S due to my need to relieve the sports car bug thats been plaguing me since I sold those 2.

Is that a crease in the front fender right by the door?

btw, congrats, welcome, make sure you get it a good tuneup before you go ripping on it

Also double check that rear plastic window to make sure its not cracking already.

Yeah the car did have some body work done previously, I'm going to try and square everything away one by one. What type of engine oil/differential fluid/transmission oil are you guys running?

It's a good idea to change all those fluids. Look here for all you ever wanted to know about fluids... take your pick, they're all good, otherwise xviper wouldn't have included them.
