  1. Not too much has been going on these last couple of weeks. Have been flat out at work doing OT. Got the boot wall cut up a couple weeks ago. Still need to pull it back out and carpet it. Will run the carpet to overlap onto the factory mould on the RHS and probably use some velcro to stick them together. Been working on the harness this weekend. Bulkhead is terminated now and sleeved back to ecu. Need to wait for that and mount it up to get the correct length on the wires before terminating. Got a call last week saying my tailshaft was finally finished. Went to pick it up and they had a uni joint on the gearbox end at the measurement I gave them instead of a flange.... So they need to shorten it and fix that up. Hopefully not another 4 month wait...
  2. Got the other lines done today. It looks OK. The benders aren't the greatest things. Marks the tube up a little bit, but it'll do the job. Contemplating redoing a couple of them. Ill only get one shot as I stuffed up a couple already 🤣
  3. Injector pins came yesterday, got that wired straight up and heatshrunk the label down. Picked up my mates tube benders yesterday as well so I started them today. Decided to move the inline fuel filter to the boot to clean the bay up a little more. Will get the other lines in and then see if I can drop them down a little so they dont sit as high.
  4. Not sure tbh, both have pros and cons. 350z pedal pros - match stock pedals, bolt in, cheaper (2nd hand) cons - needs modding. Engine harness is almost finished now. Waiting on those new pins to finish the injector 4 connector, need a new knock sensor connector as it came out when I was trying to depin it and a flex sensor plug too. ECU is sold now so I can go ahead and order the new FuryX as well as a new Bosch LSU 4.9 and a flex fuel sensor. Work has ramped up now so I'm going to lose my afternoons or a Saturday to work on the car... Still got a fair bit to do, wiring, plumbing, fab, sound system etc. Will eventually get around to it 🤣😭
  5. Finally got a couple hours yesterday and got stuck into the injector harness. Went to plug them all in and one didnt seat. Pulled the pins out and Golebys sent me a wrong pin.... They'll be sending out new pins this week sometime. Did a little bit on it today. The connectors aren't bootable so I shrunk some SCL around the end of it which is just enough for the boot not to be able to pull off easily and makes it look 100x better. Need to get a couple hours and put it in the car and see where I need to crimp the 8way connectors and splice the powers in both and gnd in coilpack harness.
  6. Couple hours on the harness today. My boot and last couple of dtm connectors finally rocked up. 90⁰ boot looks awesome! Got the coil pack harness labelled and started pinning up a few connectors and sealing them up. Better have no issues with this harness for another 20 yrs 🤣 Away for the weekend doing work on my Uncles place so won't be any progress until next week
  7. Johnny said a new pedal will basically turn it into an M2. DBW throttle body requires a sensored pedal.
  8. Pulled the stock pedal out this arvo and bolted up the V35 pedal. It's not too bad, but definitely not the right angle of the dangle. I'm thinking a little tweak to the right and angle it down a bit more and it'll be sweet. Popped the engine harness in and got a couple of measurements for the coil packs and injectors. Got the coil pack harness all twisted up and terminated. Will finish sheathing it tomorrow and hopefully start splicing the 12V and GND.
  9. Didn't get anything done over the weekend unfortunately. But got stuck in today and got the woofer spacers all cut out. 2x18mm thick that I'll glue together for a little bit more rigidity and then give it a bit of a trim up to try and get them a bit nicer and more matched. Drilled the stock holes out and put some nutserts in and mounted one side up to see how it sits andddd the door card still fits. I believe it sits out about 6mm further than stock and it looked like you could come out further when I tried to look through the speaker grille. Did some measuring and the distance from the back of the stock speaker spacer to the mounting surface is 65mm. The new speaker depth is 70mm so it should sit out 1mm further than the back of the stock spacer which will clear the window coming down I ordered new injector, coil pack, dbw pedal connectors as well as a 90⁰ boot for the bulkhead connector. Should have them this week sometime then I can start making those up. In the meantime I'm gonna change pedals over and mount the 3 port pressure sensor block up next to the booster somewhere and I'll have to get some AN3 fittings and hose. Going to mount Oil, Coolant and MAP on it to get them off the engine and I'll leave the fuel pressure sensor on the reg. Still have to find somewhere to mount the trans thermostat, bolt up the ac pump and put the belt on. I had a quick look at the engine harness and forgot that I loomed it all up with the body wiring 😴😴 I'll have to pull it all out, cut the engine harness out and redo it to make it neat again.
  10. They both came up Mickey Mouse! Looking good mate
  11. Finished pinning up the bulkhead again this arvo and then popped out into the shed and decided to mount a tweeter. Got them secured into a good spot with @GTSBoy comment about cleaning/clearance. Unfortunately the woofers are pretty big and don't bolt into the stock pod so I will look at either modding them or maybe cut out some new ones from the MDF I got. Measured about 40mm of space ive got to work with to the door card so 2x18mm glued together should work out well.
  12. Haha thanks man, I wish I had more time to do it! Get maybe an hour or two in the arvos so I try and do little bits while I can haha. 🤣🤣 bulkhead was a c**t today... I had to depin it so I could put the last bit of heatshrink on. So tomorrow arvo will be spent pinning it back up, hopefully in the correct positions 🫣 My dbw pedal arrived today as well so over the weekend I might pull the stock one out and pop this in and see what adjustments I have to make to it. Will also look at pulling factory harness out and laying the new harness in and get lengths to start the injector and coil pack harnesses as well as changing a couple of connectors on the trigger sensors so I can boot/heatshrink them.
  13. Harness is slowly coming along. Should have the the bits and pieces I'm missing for it tomorrow and I'll be able to finish this part off. Need to order some new pins for injectors and coilpacks so I can make those sub harnesses. Dbw adapter arrived this week as well so I popped it on to see what it'll look like with the silver. I think I might get it anodised black. I'd like to do the TB as well but it's a pain in the ass to disassemble. I have ordered a 350z/V35 pedal which should also be here this week. I'll have to get a connector for that and I should be pretty much set to wire back to the ECU.
  14. Yeah I'll see how I go. Had a few tweeters on the triangles of other cars. These cups are a lot bigger though. Hard to see on the photos I took but there's a bit of space in there still. Harness is slowly coming along. Have terminated the bulkhead connector along with ignition and injector T offs. Need to get it into the car so I can work out lengths for the rest of the sensors and start terminating them. Have ordered some 3/4" Raychem to cover the first 300mm or so and also the required ecu connectors for the furyx so I can start making the other half of the harness. Ill get around to ripping out the old ecu and wiring at some stage as well and start looking at mounting a few relays and things down there to power the new setup.
  15. Will 99% be going to a fury x over the g4x plugin. Onboard wideband and dbw and I can finally f**k the factory butchered harness I made off haha and give her the harness she deserves 🤣 TB and a few bits and pieces rocked up. I'm just waiting on the TB adapter i'm hoping is today. Fkn its probably about 2mm off each hole compared to the Hypertune 90mm TB.... They should change their design and match it so it's an easier swap between the two.. I started terminating the bulkhead connector the other day. Have 8 wires left to terminate this arvo and then my splice crimps should arrive today as well so I can start the ign and inj looms. New Focals turned up yesterday as well. Can't wait to test them out! The tweeter cups are going to fit perfectly in behind the mirrors there.
