I just read this entire thread. I didn't **** my pants until the "like" part a few pages back.

The car is awesome man. It has come a long way. Fix the damn quarter panel. It makes me cringe every time I see it. Think I like your intake manifold most, and still want to know what exactly you had to do to make the header fit, I've got this hooker here and would love to make it work. So I can run 2 3/4" exhaust to a 3" can.

Also the wheels. Love 'em. They look sick. Looks like you've got plenty of parts to pick at on that side of the country, there ain't much of **** in the junkyards around here. Would kill to find a body kit laying out there.

I just hope I have the patience to make it as far as you with my build.

Oh yeah, looked from that first vid, your car took off pretty damn quick. Doesn't seem like mine is that fast. Maybe I'm just too used to V8s.

This is an option, I don't think I could trust my tires if the fender well was scathing away at my side wall.

Oh yeah, one more thing.

lmfao my fenders are already rolled. I kind of want to do a tiny tiny pull so I can go lower and not throw smoke off my sidewalls from rubbing so hard haha

I'll get to the fender eventually, like I tell everyone else.

I regret doing the header so much, I really wish I had just left it stock manifold until I found a proper 280ZX header (which I have now, just don't wanna go through the trouble of welding the flange on it among other things) you also don't want 2 3/4" pipe, just stick with a 2.5" pipe and be done with it, more than a US-spec NA L will ever need.

I'm still mad at Nismo for selling that LSD I found in the junkyard.

And for once you built something that actually looks nice lol

this was a $40 LSD you can get from almost any later Nissan car. the most expensive part is probably the axles.

that's what I just did.

just slot the holes in your crossmember, don't need to fab whole goddamn control arms.

of course, if you wanna do it RIGHT

swap in an S13 rear subframe.

I don't know what you're talking about with the control arms hitting the rails. I've laid frame with my car and they didn't hit.

the only things that hit when that happened were the axles hit a small pinch seam way up there, I just hammered that flat and don't worry about it anymore.
