mounts came in,

turns out they dont fit 100 percent, on the passenger side mount 2 of the holes didnt line up so i had to redrill one, and slot the other to make it fit.. the transmission mount might need some modification too from what i can see.. WHATEVER.. made it work.

some pics of the install, brings me a smile, im the dude on the left with the blue shirt. had some friends come over to avoid scratching shit up.

i had to put 2 hockey pucks in between the mounts and the subframe for a good fit

made my trans mount solid, didnt have a rubber mount anyways

need to measure and take my 1j s12 driveshaft back to driveline to mate with the stock rear s14 2 piece

great rad clearance (ka koyo), will be making a aluminum shroud & fan setup

shifter extension puts it right where i need it, sweet

ill start mocking the piping up when i find or buy a kit to mock up

David B · « **Reply #65 on:** 12:02:25 AM / 18-May-12 »

bay is pretty much done minus the piping needs to be redone & so does the intake

race car trash lol

side view

relocated fusebox, still in the process of bringing the headlight wiring back to the headlights, this gives me room for a intake on the other side from where i had it down where the stock battery goes

using my in house, lol.. steel fan shroud for a bit until i get some money right, this time though a koyo radiator and sealing all the seams will give me some better cooling action, i sealed the fans to the shroud also.. ive got a 61.C mishimoto thermostat also

heres my intake for now, if i have leftover piping after i redo the i/c piping ill do this in aluminum

turns out the flange i used on my s12 is the same as the flange on my rear stock driveshaft piece

measured 22 inches from the output shaft to driveshaft flange, dropped all the pieces off @ driveline today, ill have it driving in 2 days when i get it back!

swap all together 100 percent minus the driveshaft, ill be redoing the piping again later, i just need to distribute funds towards other things atm

made a downpipe to mate up with the exhaust that came with a car

clearance is swell, all above the frame rails
