Been a slow with the updates, finally decided to dig into the boxes I posted a few pages back 

here’s the old b/c pillar trim in the car old and new beside each other, the old ones weren’t the worst I’ve ever seen and new one installed in the car 

Just out of interest because I have similar issues with boxes and B pillar trims - how much of a pain in the arse is fitting them and did you break any plasticky clips in doing so?

[r32-25t]

They’re pretty easy, just pull the back seat out then the side panels and peel the old ones out l. With the new ones make sure the clips are lined up with the holes before bashing them in

Looks like you ended up going custom addition to stock sump? Got any more info and internal pics? baffled/trapdoor etc?

[r32-25t]

It’s the hi octane sheet metal extended sump, it’s got internal baffles and trap doors and obviously and extend pick up as well with the limited light I currently have these are the best photos I could get,

[r32-25t]

Not yet, that was a spare sump that I had laying around, the plan is to do it some time this week 

[r32-25t]

We’ve found both of the engine mounts are half ripped So I’ve ordered a new set and once they arrive the engine can go back in

Coincidently my RB26 started popping I/C hoses and generally being ugly.  Same disease. A half torn passenger side engine mount.  Looks like it is not uncommon.  The tear was where the rubber was glued to the steel - Nismo item too.

I had the same issue when I bought the car in 03 and turned out to be the passenger mount was completely ripped and I put a genuine Nissan one in it. If I can get another 15+ years from these ones I’ll be happy

Time to change the title from "r32 gtr" to "300zx" until the motor goes back in ? 

[r32-25t]

I think out of all the gtr build threads mine has gone the longest with out the engine coming out and will only be out for week ?
