Quote: haha, I guess I should have taken a picture of that too... it actually is about 10 feet away, begging me to go in.

haha well I may tackle mine here in alittle bit. I got the main wiring harness pulled apart...got some of the ignition coils re-wrapped and tucked away....drivers side is still just a tad short even after pulling...reason its short is because I need to tucked it away up top...looks like i will attempt to solder the headlight harness

the passenger side is good tho right? I extended it a foot so you shouldn't have any issues.

Chris, Rob,

was the timing cover a pain in the **** to get off? Also, how much harder would it be to remove it with the radiator installed?

EDIT: nevermind the radiator part. I noticed you have a 350z radiator.

did you get that from OH6G35?

Its not hard to do the t/m with the radiator in. First time I did it with the rad and fans out. 2nd time I just pulled the fans out to give me more room

I just ordered a 1000watt Monster dual amplifier kit the 300 series. Really cheap too. Going to wire up all the speakers next weekend.

Timing cover I think is more time consuiming to remove all the accessories..actual install isnt hard...the most annoying part was scraping off all of the damn permatex leftover after pulling off the original one.

correct I have the 350z Koyo right now installed. PLENTY OF ROOM!!! had to undo the core support and lean it back for one of the alternator bolts because it was hitting the motor on the fan.

Rob did learn how much nicer it is to have all the items deleted that he has done since I had all that extra still remaining...

correct...KOYO MAKES a big difference in space.


Also I went ahead and started polishing my spacer myself instead of sending it...so far pretty good. need to go and pick up some finer sand paper to perfrom all the detailed work.
