Some U-Channel Gasketing would finish those pass through holes up nicely and provide some protection to the PS lines.

Top notch work.

thanks guys. I havent heard of u-channel gasketing, i was thinking of just gluing spliced vacuum hose lol, but I'll look into that, thanks. Aluminum is of course much better, but i dont have the means to tig and getting it done at a shop costs a loooot.... Plus i would have to take the car to them in order to get them right, and i dont really trust anyone at doing anything for me around here...
hopefully i get some more work done tomorrow.

update: finished bleeding the brake system and built me a heat shield for the booster, bmc and PS reservoir.

Aluminum sheet, cut to size and start bending







then i had to cut some more to clear the bmc stopper which i hadnt accounted for....



mounting bracket welded on the strut bar



heat resistant taped shield and painted bar



And final product

What mustang wheels are these? Like the 01 cobra? What's the offset?

Also, very legit build man. I wish I could do something like this with mine.

Thanks,
Art

Did you have to get them re-drilled or did they fit?

How wide are the rears? What width tires are you running in the rear?

Thanks,
Art

Oh yeah, forgot about sizes. Theyre all 17x9+24, i had 255/45 on the rears/no spacer, little camber, slightly rolled. 245/45 on the front, autozone slip on spacers unknown size (very small) to avoid rubbing on the coilovers, little camber slightly rolled.

Thanks there buddy!
I actually have an update.
I got it started a few days ago and yesterday i finally got it running right. Still need to take care of a bunch of little details, maybe a few hours of work.
Will update soon with video

feito

Taking care of details.
Built a firewall plate for the firewall mil-spec connector and a bracket for the throttle body. Then i put everything back on, hopefully for good.

thanks to Russell from nissanparts, killer deals on bumpers, will be ordering the front one soon if still available.
Some blurriness haha:







Note: this was just a test fitting, old one going back on until ready to paint the whole car-

nice nice keep up the solid work just read the whole build and can't wait for more!

feito

Time for an update, no?
Sent a z32 ecu to get nistuned in houston. It's taking much longer than I expected, no worries though.
Purchased jdm front bumper and bumper lights since I updated this build thread. After a couple of months I finally had the enthusiasm and weather permitted for an outdoors paint job.

Fuck my life, now I've got to paint the whole car...

Base coat is from ScratchWizard, purchased from a seller on ebay. Acme clear coat came from the same seller. I believe their base coat is made by sherwin williams. First time spraying two-stage, got to say, I really enjoyed spraying it. Much easier than spraying single-stage IMO.
Meanwhile I've been working a budget project. I sold my t-top aw11 and now Im working on my other aw11. Im putting together a custom fmu turbo setup. Car will be running 6psi on an sr t25 and I'll be more than happy if I gain 40 horses.

What throttle cable are you using? Part #?

seagrasser

I'm curious on this as well. Rumor is that a Sentra cable will do, but would love to hear what you are using.

that's the stock s14 cable, but as you can see a few posts earlier Im using a custom bracket.
Test fitted the parts today:




Forcewerkz valances aren't the best fitting valances, but that's all I could afford after buying both oem bumpers brand new, so I'll just deal with them. I still have to get the right bolts and clips for them. Can anybody recommend some strong double sided tape or something similar? The new paint sort of matched the old paint, a little wax/buff on the old paint should do it until Im ready to paint the whole car. I will also have to re-locate my engine oil cooler since it didnt clear the jdm bumper...

It's been a while, and my car's still not on the road. So, this past week I was on vacation and decided to put some work into it. I couple months ago I decided to replace my 4 bolt outlet, .63 a/r turbine housing with a v-band, .82 a/r one. This meant modifying my downpipe, but instead I decided to re-do it all. At the same time, I decided to re-locate my engine by re-doing the engine and transmission brackets, so, im basically going back to zero....

New transmission and crossmember sandblasted and ready for paint. For these, I used new material. I went with a thinner gauge to reduce some weight. I also used a new (to me) engine crossmember, mostly to save all the cutting and grinding work. New downpipe was also sand blasted and painted high temperature flat black using vht paint. Not sure if it will last, but I have decided not to use exhaust wrap on it any more. The old downpipe (which I re-used some pieces from) had already started rusting under the exhaust wrap, and it had only been almost a year, so yeah, I think I'll stay away from it from now on.

















I also bit the bullet and bought a new wiring specialties harness.
Also, I have decided to have a professional install my alarm system. I have come to realize my electrical/wiring skills still need some work haha. That plus I am missing my car more than ever. So, hopefully I'll be putting things back together later on.
I cant wait to be on the road again.

Nice to see that you still own this. Keep it up my man!
