golvebox installs (if done properly) can look very neat

my car came over with a few guages and controllers in the glovebox but mounted on some awful carbon fibre which had been cut out with garden shears by the look of it...

id recommend the DIN or ashtray setup, thats how alot of cars over here have done it. but if you want to hide your expensive electrical gear from thieves etc then try a glovebox job!

mine is below the stereo.. I removed the tray below my stereo and made up plastic panel to mount it on. Works a treat, but maybe slightly hard to monitor if you're doing drags and you're after an accurate measurement of RPM and THR in face view.

bit like Grims except looks a bit neater IMHO :P

Pred, my stereo has a silver border for the face plate that nicely covers up the little gap you can see. But your right that it's hard to see if try to read corrections or revs. But I was after a 'stealth' install.

Enrico, the flip cover is part of the factory compartment that came with the car...I just cut it to mount the safc inside it so the front flap can close up and cover it.

How about buy a stand? When driving put the S-AFC just behind the steering wheel or on the middle of the dash(just above the air outlet)

When not driving hide it in the glove box. Just same theory as some detachable face head unit.

However, is it legal to put there?

    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂
