crash n' burn is on a distinguished road
I'm terrible at this. Bought a camper so we've been travelling around a bit before my wife starts her internship to wrap up her degree. We won't have this kind of family time for the next year. I also invested money in myself and started my side business doing wiring and making PnP harnesses.



Had a Friday night to myself without the wife and kid so I hung out with some friends and checked out my buddy's new place. They more or less gave me a huge kick in the ass for motivation so I pulled everything off the shelves this past weekend and dove in to getting my swap together.



Not shooting for much power right now, so normal maintenance items were first, replacing crusty hardware, new vacuum lines, etc etc. When we dropped my friend's JZ in his hatch with the ISR mounts, they were perfect....well I bit the bullet on that one I guess so I had had to fix that and wasted a drill bit in the process. Was trying to drop it in but found out I was never sent the chassis side of the engine mounts..those will be here Friday, ugh.




So now that I couldn't dry fit the motor, I figured it was as good of a time as any to destroy this perfectly good external CD. My friend brought over his FISCH kit so we could compare the kits and get his shifter on and adjusted.



You vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about:



I also decided to dry fit the slave so I can mock up my clutch lines and remote bleeder. Came out pretty good. I can mount the bleeder to the backside of the transmission or somewhere on the frame rail for easy bleeding.





So..here it sits until next weekend. I've got the harness stripped down so I can lace in my gauge sensors and ready to mock up for extension when those mounts come in.
