I don’t think it’s crack free, bec. it has a plastic dash cover on it.
Garden hose on the fuel tank…

lol thats hilarious
Got to work on it a bit more today, some pics.
Bee’s nests in the door jamb.
The overall goal today was to get the dash out, start to access the quality (or lack thereof as I’d later find out) of the wiring that was still in the car, and play with gauges. Started by pulling the dash out which unfortunately ended with me and a pair of diagonal cutters going to town due to some idiots in the past installing some sort of aftermarket alarm and stereo equipment. Wires EVERYWHERE, needless to say, I wasnt pleased. Wiring harness seems to be mainly intake though and I’ll likely rewire sections of it rather than go for full replacement, meanwhile the gauges and engine management will be on their own harness separate from the rest of the electronics.
Man, I have having parts of the front of the dash bolted/screwed down, makes everything a total pain, this is where the german’s know what they are doing with mounting the dashes on pinch welds and having very few pieces of hardware holding them in.
All out! What a mess!
My blower is bigger than yours… to bad mine doesnt make BOOOOOOST!
Hahahaha.
I was really pleased with the state of some of the rearward interior pieces and headliner today. Upon further inspection a lot of them are either in pristine original condition.
The fuse “box” amused Mike and I greatly.
Defi BF 60mm (IIRC) dropped in on top of a stock gauge, they fit perfectly, and they just released a tach too. Now just gotta find out about a speedo they aparently had at SEMA.
And to my pleasant surprise I got home to my Carbon ZG Flares waiting for me.
Tits Magee!
cool! you keeping the quilted interior bits? they are pimp

hmmmm. keep me informed on that process, I would rather be 5lug than 4 lug. I have brackets to use 240sx rear calipers and everything else (just havent picked up calipers yet) but I would rather go 5
