You're thinking along the lines of the previous owner of my car with the battery placement.

Any particular reason for putting the switches on the tunnel and not in the centre console?

I can't take credit, a mate did it on his car, then installed it on mine :D

I'm going to be mounting the fuse box in front of the shifter, which is why I'm putting the switch panel where it is. I have an ERP bellhousing for my RB25 gearbox, and it moves the shifter forward. I didn't want to hit any switches with my clumsy shifting :) I have long arms, so I can still reach it where it is, but I might extend my shifter so I don't hit anything with my elbow.

Mick: nice looking setup there man. I'm trying to get my fuel system done at the moment, but the guy doing my enclosure has just pulled out so trying to get another one done. Never ending delays...

Been doing the rest of the sound deadening today, gave myself a nice cut which i then managed to bash a few times :unsure:

Only the trans tunnel and behind the pedals was left to do so i used a heat gun and scrapper, wasnt too bad a job. Cbf going to get more dry ice :(

I also decided that since i have come this far im going to remove whats left of the dash and take out the heater etc and paint it properly and re wire with minimal wires.

Yeah they were great to deal with.

Anyway did u use the low max rail as well, how much did it lower you roughly. I have issues once i have my helmet on because i have a sunroof, that is 90% of the reason i have thsese seats so im going to be a bit pissed if i still have a problem.

cheers

    • Oh, oops, yeah, I'm getting the cams in the 2.5 replaced, so the above factory 2.0 cam specs don't mean 5hit, but, after alot of googling it seems the factory 2.5 cams don't like to rev So, yeah, there is that 🤣
    • Update - new drop of oil noticed. Leak seems to be continuing, but a slow/small one. 
    • Hey y'all! So I am the owner of a shiny new '99 ENR34 25GT-Four, 5spd manual. Took it to the tire shop to get new shoes. They mismatched the front and rear axles (225/40s on rear, 225/45s on front), so AWD system went bonkers for the next day. Took it back in, they fixed it, but I noticed about 8-9 big drops of red fluid in my parking spot. Leaking has stopped, but it's clear that the transfer case may have been stressed/hurt by this debacle. I'm taking it in for inspection tomorrow. If things are FUBAR, I have a few questions. - ENR34 manual transmission transfer cases seem impossible to source. Can a GTR transfer case fit? Or if not the whole thing, just seals or components? GTR is 6spd, mine's 5spd, so I'm thinking no, but lmk. - Finding a few RB25DE NEO AWD auto transmissions for sale, for decently cheap. If my only option is to swap to auto, what else will I need besides an auto-specific gauge cluster, and associated wiring? - I imagine the R32/33 GTS4 transmissions/transfer cases are a no-go? They're not NEO engines, so unsure. - RB25DET/4WD setup from the Stagea, any parts that transfer over? I did search up for this on SAU and google, very little info covered.   This is my first post, so apologies for breaking any rules, please let me know, and thanks for the help.
    • Thanks. I agree, looking at those plugs in conjunction with good compression/leak down tests I'm not too certain its ring related anymore.  I have a Swagelok ball valve on the drain and tubed it lower down to the left side of car to easily dump it into a container. I do not drain back into the sump. I've never had to drain it though as there's never been any oil in it. 
    • Best bang for buck at the moment would be a 86/brz. Good chassis,  plenty of aftermarket support and parts everywhere.   I just picked one up with some quality gear and it drives better than my old 180sx.    Also depending on what your doing and budget.  An a90 supra is my pick if want to spend more. Great chassis, solid motor, gearbox is good. Development potential is crazy. They are doing well in prod sport and time attack. All the old jdm stuff needs alot of work as most of it all bent and over priced.
