Thank you thank you.
Ok, so the following things are now done. Plugs have been changed, o2 sensor has been installed, around 95% of the wiring is completed, the maf harness has been extended, fuel filter and new fuel lines are ready to be ran, and almost all of the vacuum lines are now ran. One of the major things that is done though is the o2 elbow has now been modified to clear the steering shaft. Guess a common problem when using the R32 xmember, now that its done Im ready to make a downpipe and then the exhaust is done. Also have a few new parts in as well. First is the Apexi AFC II My headlights came in today right before i was headed back to work from lunch. The quallity and fitment are really awesome, however I did have to cut a hole in the radiator support to get them to recess far enough, not a big deal and only took me about 15 minutes for the one side that I mocked up. The goals for this weekend if the shop is going to be the typical car saturday is to get the car fired up, possibly a downpipe made, and get the fmic into place to start the charge pipe build.

Sick Vertex headlights. This whole time I didn't know you were in Indiana. I go down there semi-often to visit friends and such. It's so rare to see an S-chassis owner around here, they're getting a little more speckled throughout the midwest.

Thanks everyone, appreciate it.
Well this weekend was an extremely busy one for me. However most of it was not spent working on the car, I did manage to get up to the shop saturday evening and get some stuff done. The doors have now been removed as well as the trunk and thanks to Scott (whitebugeye) for helping me scuff the jams, Ive got them now taped off and ready to spray. Couldnt do any paintwork that night cause it was getting late and dry time wouldve taken me into hours I didnt want to venture into sunday morning. Not to mention there was too much other stuff going on at the shop so overspray wouldnt of worked either...lol. I do plan on painting the jams tomorrow after work though if all goes according to plan.

Thanks again.
So after work tonight I painted the jams, and my buddy here at the shop flaked and cleared them for me. The color is amazing and the pics do not do it justice at all. Going to try to get the doors sprayed towards the end of the week so I can put them back on. Prepped and Bagged After the basecoat was sprayed After the HOK radiant red flake and clear were sprayed

Finished off the actual door jams last night with the help of my buddy here at the shop doing the flake and clear work. This afternoon after work was done, I built the doors back up and they're ready to go back on the car. Ive got to order a new hinge pin from Nissan cause one of mine was bent to shit, and no parts stores carry them in stock (WTF?) Sorry for the crappy pics, the paintbooth wasnt being camera friendly..lol It definately sparkles in the sun, not like I thought though, when the suns directly on it you see more color, but the shaded areas are discoballrific. Took a few more pics since the chassis has now dried and that are at a better angle to show how deep the flake is buried, not to mention how much flake is actually in the there.

car looks really nice. just wanted to point out that when i installed my RB20 without beating in the firewall i had serious clearance issues.. even sat too high. nothing rubbing but definitely close. so i pulled the motor out and beat in the firewall and repainted that spot...(nobody will see it although i matched it pretty well) my clearance issues completely disappeared i pushed my motor back at least 2.5 inches and a good inch or so lower. idk if its too late, it may be, but just letting you know. im dealing with a blown headgasket so continue the build and posting pics for us. looks good
