Project 450WHP
okay so thanks to bleach doing his turbo swap I figured I should get my *** in gear. So I gathered all the wiring up removed all in the engine bay that I can, and I am going to start "cleaning, and hiding" stuff. So here are some pics of what I got done so far today.. It's starting to rain but that just means I dont have to use the hose now to wash off the degreaser
Also here are some pics of the old tranny/motor that was removed.. Tranny looks clean as hell but we all know its a tricky little bastard.. (the 4-5speed)

okay.. soooo, the SDS system I have controls the motor and EFI, and uses its own sensors.. so looking in the chilton and Nissan manual's the only wires I need in the engine bay is the Headlight sensor and wiring to the headlights and turnsignals .. I am also not running A/C or heater.. so can someone just confirm that for me please..
(Basically the only wires not motor related are the headlights,and turn signals right??)

Yeah that's right except for a couple of things. If you plan to keep the stock fluid reservoirs those have wiring for the warning system (which I'm tossing personally). And then the wiper motor and wiper pump motor if you're keeping both of those. You're not going to have side markers right? So you won't need that wiring. Horns if you want those. Thats all I can think of right now. If I think of anything else I'll let you know.

Well I decided where to mount things.. here are some pics.. There are to many wires in this car that are unnecesary
p.s. The engine bay will be painted before the packs are mounted.

If there were no strange people then 'normal' people wouldn't exist cause you first have to determine whats strange to determine that it's not normal. But then again if you consider dumping everything you've got: time, money, sweat, and blood, into you car; then aren't we all considered a little strange? Or maybe THAT is normal It's all in the mind of the observer I guess

Well the project is on hold as I am off to FL in the morning, I did get my NEW flywheel today so when I get back and get my hands on a clutch alignment tool I will get that motor in ASAP I am soo close to getting done. In the mean time I will be reading my SDS instructiuons and "maximum boost" (again) on the planes No one steal my car please
