The 2nd one is for the fuel pump and fuel gauge sender in the fuel tank. The cover plate gives you access to the top of the fuel tank to remove the pump & sender unit.

If you can see the ground through that one, then someone has stolen your fuel tank.

lol yeh as blind elk says thats ur fuel pump in there. if u unscrew and lift that out thats ur fuel pump. and then yeh the wiring n shit for it is connected to the top.

then the other one is where ur motor and shit are for ur power aerial which is on the outside of the car just there, as people have said. :)

in my old S13 180, it had some kind of rattley sound from the boot, i spent ages trying to fix the jack in a solid place, it still did it. stuck my arm down the side of the car in the dark and felt round (bit aprehensive to do that realy haha), and i found ... a japanese golf ball! i now it was jap coz it had jap writing on it. hehe

Custom AMP Shelf below the HICAS computer, A space saver tyre, a battery etc etc

Oh and had an annoying noise in the back over every big bump, stuck my arm down there and found the attachment for the jack :D

Annoying noise solved

For sure the bottom pic is the fuel pump. The middle one would be the rubber seal. For my car, I don't hv any antenna and speaker hole at the rear at all. I know all r32 use to hv antenna in the front wind screen.

    • I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp
    • Forgot to mention that these are the before pics when I first got it!
    • Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆
    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
