You need to replace the seat belts. They are only available from the dealer. I wouldn't let passengers in the car if you are driving it now. Are you keeping the car or re-selling it?

You're going to be spending A LOT more money to get this suitable to drive.

Yeah I know about the seatbelts, its just a short term fix, Ill order a the belts in about 2 weeks,

No I will be keeping the car, Ill sell it if the offer is right, but I really like it, Today I accelerated much harder, and around 4000rpm, it felt like another engine kicked in, felt like turbo'd, but its not, and the exhaust is amazing at high rpms

Glad you like it! Our cars like high RPM and I think it has something to do with the variable valve timing??

Not too shabby for something that's been FUBAR.. I hope u have a lot of patience. Waiting for it to be fully operational is the worst part..

When I was having heat issues, I thought the heater core was the problem. Even after replacing the thermostat and bleeding the system for months. It ended up being a leaking radiator. Is the upper radiator hose solid once the engine is warmed up? Meaning does it feel full and you cannot squeeze it?

Never heard of a Nissan heater core going bad...The radiator is probably cracked from the accident.

actually the thick about 2" hose feels pretty empty, you can easy squeeze it, has plenty of coolant

You have a leak somewhere. Mine was leaking at the bottom of the radiator.

Are you bleeding it correctly? The bleeding should be easy if the system is air-tight. System should be bled good enough if that upper hose is hard. I replaced my radiator and didn't have hot air, even after a 15 minute drive. The next morning the heat was there...so weird.

Check for leaks:

at the bottom of the radiator
around the thermostat
hoses going in and out of the radiator
all hoses leading into and out of the firewall
