those 90s are fine I agree the an fittings flow better due to the enlongment of thefitting but it is what it is and theres plenty of pump to move fuel there no problem. as for a fire i don't think it will be getting too hot over there the turbo will be blanketed and dp wrapped. Thanks for your advice I wish more people had some good construtive criticism.

ok so I got all new heater hoses and clamps from work. Also mounted and ran the intercooler and pipes not really much more to do besides more wiring and diff swap. I'll have a week off of work next month I'm gonna try to finish every thing between now and then.

I no its Easter but its such a nice day out I couldn't help but to do a little work on the car. Ok so the fuel pump is completly rewired as per nzconvertable and hailers. The efan is almost completely wired but I just have to find out what wire I have to use to have the PFC trigger it on. also have most of the line lock wired just have to run to radio shack and pick up a few things. Once I'm finished with these little things I'll wire the last three wires that need to be ran from the PFC. Then I can fill all my fluids load my base map and see if she runs. Then I have absolutly no choice then to swap the dreaded diffs and ****

well after I hooked up the trigger to the efan. i hooked up all my pedals and mounted the steering colum an cover. Then I got all side tracked and decided to cut some holes in the new carpet so I could mount my seats. I got one side of the rails to mount perfect but the other side is even with the mounting holes but theyre an inch or so too short so I'm gonna have to get good welding so i can just extend the mounting point on the rail. Still need to wire a couple things for the PFC. I'll do the rear end in a couple of week when I take off from work. Other then that I'm looking for a carbon fiber sunroof top and black manual window doorpanels if you can help me out let me know thanks.

well finished swapping over all the suspenstion today 5 lug swap and 4 pot calipers. i painted the calipers black to look nice w/ the white paint and attached my ss lines and fittings, also got some earl speed bleeders. i have some slotted and cross drilled rotors on there and also installed my RB swaybar and maxdatrix adjustible links. got a bunch of pix of every thing w/ my new tokito blues and intrax springs everything looks soo pretty, i love it lol. every thing just took a while b/c i had to put all the other 4 lugs **** back on the other car so i can still move it around. any way no work tomorrow soo i havent decided if im gonna fill the fluilds and everything to get it started or just drop the diff in one of the cars. more tomorrow

well dropped the diffs out of both cars today dropped the entire suspension and sub frame w/ it. the na diff was really easy because I just dropped the bitch on the ground and drug it out from under the car w/o the wheels on. The tII on the other hand was much more difficult b/c I left the wheels on to make sure I didn't **** any thing up. Anyway I'll put the diff in tomorrow and go get fluids for it then I just have the make kev load my basemap up for me, then vroom it needs body work done. I still have too talk to rob about this LOL. More tomorrow
