Hmm... that is a good idea.

If or when my CSC or MSC fails (or I need a new clutch), a video will be produced.

Hey jfisher,
In Toronto we have emissions test (OBD scan & visual inspection) every 2 years. I don't want to create problems by using test pipes or aftermarket cats as they seem to set the CEL with a "Catalysis efficiency below threshold"

Sorry, but that is too much potential trouble for me.

Thanks!

P.s subscribed and love your videos, awesome work!
Thank you for subscribing! I check my subscriber count every day and I am amazed at the growth! As of May 12/17 I am at an awesome 880 subscribers!

This is an excellent idea and I will add it to the production schedule for this year.

Well, this is a timely request...
My last track day highlighted the slight runout on the 70,000 mile rotors.

I will add this to the production schedule for this year, but it may not be released until the fall/winter.

I will add this to the production schedule and then wait for mine to fail.
What was your symptom? Is your G37 AWD?

Sorry, I am not able to show any automatic transmission procedures since my car is a 6 MT.

I will add throttle body bypass to the production schedule and will look into the cost/benefit of a light weight crank pulley.
