There's a hump there on my S14. It's supposed to be there, but I've never really thought about it though since it doesn't get in my way. I'm not sure why it's there, probably to make room for something underneath the car. The only thing I can think of off the top of my head that's on that side of the tranny tunnel is the catalytic converter.

It's for the cat on S13's. Dunno about S14's. Makes finding floor mats a bitch.

You are correct, catalytic converter is right under your ass. And you wondered why your feet were always so warm when you drove :P

For S14s, it's a fake (hollow) cat.

In the S14 that is the real cat, the second one is I believe a resonator. This is why the part for the first cat costs around $600 from Nissan, trust me I checked. Also, look at the placement of the exhaust sensor. That has to be behind the cat, but it is before the second one in the S14.
