Tire to rear overfender clearance

rear of the tire is cutting it SUUUUUUUUPER close. Toe is in spec and cars thrust angle is straight so I can't really dial any camber out. It will rub with a proper 265 on the back. 

another edge I'll have to cut. 

the executive decision to jam rivets into the side skirts were made after the realization zip ties were no longer an option here. I'll have to cut this off at a later time. 

chips ahoy (the doors were not re-painted) 

Not too sure why the doors are making contact here but gonna have to grind these down with the dremel and hit it with touch up paint. 

Need to make debris guards for the front fenders, rocks get caught up here after it rains and makes a sound that would make a grown man cry when you open the door and hear those rocks munching at your paint!!! 

The corner is on this hood haha! yes, look at that line up. Shits money, fuck removing this hood again! 

the fitment after the repairs however are money, no waves or bullshit! 

All cracks have been repaired. Just ran out of paint to do the bottom. 

could shave this a bit and paint it eventually. 

whoever repaired the hood before used bondo instead of resin/fiberglass. Yeah that was stupid! 

more dremel work here, you can see the haze from wetsanding on fender still lol

gonna hit this with a dremel and just remove the upper half. 

god that hood is so money! 

2.6 degree's of front camber

4.2 degree's of camber

ass shot! 

Sideskirt has my body sweat on it! gross! 
Still working on this shit haha! 

Flex A Light Fan Controller, still can't handle the amp draw of a taurus fan on it's high setting, low it is. 

had to shave a bit of the gas door metal off for this to fit. 

Luckily there isn't a huge distance from the over and the body here so no worries about fucking up paint jamming a filler in here.

Wiring an S13 SR20DET up for an S14 (95-98)

If you've come here then you have decided to undertake the task of wiring up an s13sr20det motor for use in a 1995-1998 240sx. This isn't the end all guide or going to go over problem free for you if it's your first time wiring up an engine. But it will get you set on the right path. - Wayne Tips before you get started on buying stuff. make sure you only use adhesive heat shrink. Just so happens a strand of h/s I bought wasn't adhesive and the solder ended up corroding causing shorts/issues. I had to cut open the whole harness and replace all of the heat shrink to be sure.  Extra runs of wiring aren't really necessary to do this, you can use wires from your ka24de harness that are already color matched and the same gauge.  The s13sr20det harness can have about 3-4 inches removed from it behind the firewall (in car) but don't make any cuts until you know everything works, then shorten as desired.  If you break a plug/connector (use your brain a

Introduction  Hello,  So you wanna install one of these. I'll try to be the voice of reason in 2022 and tell you it's probably not even worth it. 10-15 years ago, heck yeah go for it.  But if you're insistent like myself, I'll give you all of the tools needed to get the job done.  It's been a while since I've installed this. 12 years in fact. I've contemplated making youtube videos but to be honest I am ungodly lazy. This blog post at this point is more of a diary for me as well as a how-to because if I ever have to troubleshoot this crap again I know that I've unnecessarily over-documented this install for the final time.  I will say that, I originally followed the write up here:  chuonthis s14 dcc write-up  I don't want to plagiarize and flat out copy the write up, but I'm going to stage the information very similarly.  I have it available in PDF format and have uploaded it here in case their website ever goes down. I recommend saving that.  O

Almost there!

Just gonna do a random photodump and just chat about some things. Embedding some you tube shorts as well. I previously mentioned how I was going to upgrade to hid's and led corner lights and turn signals. But I also wanted to black everything out, light output at night shouldn't be affected. May be a bit harder to see things during the day but I'm not too worried about it. The oem stuff was already pretty hard to see during the day anyway as shown in the example below.  So here is the final result of the headlight and corner light tint, I still have my old oem signal markers in. I was waiting to pick up my led ones from paint as there just was no way I was going to be able to wrap them. Going to try and retain the ability to plug in oem stuff rather than discarding the wiring for strictly led items in case I need to replace anything with off the shelf parts.  This is the oem connector for the corner lights, I have my chassis harness sleeved and loomed in the engine bay and
