Sorry man... too good of a deal for me to pass up. On my way with a trailer and cashiers check

But your Datsun is going to be jealous....

Oh... the Datsun can wait  :D

I am more worried about my wife right now after buying another "project"  :o

Thank you Carl... it's in good hands I can promise you that.  Made it home safe & sound, can't wait to get it up in the air and figure out what's going on with the wiring  :scratch:

I'm certain that it's in great hands.  And, it's not so far away that I can't come visit  :D  I'm not giving up on the idea of you racing me in my old FD and I'll be in my LS2 powered e30 M3.  If you're worried about power to weight ratio, just add more power (or subtract weight...). It is a simple equation (unlike wiring).    :drive:

She did give you approval.  So...   She'll learn how to say no quickly and without equivocation soon enough.  Use the warm glow of early marriage wisely while you've got it.  8)

Matt, you are forgiven if you sell me the Datsun with RB26 for like 1500 dollars.

Ah ahahah... it's an RB25DE... $1500 for that too?  :P

Datsun is just slightly on the back burner for a month or two until I get the new FD sorted out and driveable.

I saw this car at speedware while I was having my alignment done. All of the guys there took a while looking over my car and the engine bay.

Yeah, it looks like those guys screwed up a few things on this car to say the least...

They showed me what they planned on doing with the battery wiring and fuse block and it didn't make much sense to me.

Sorry, I thought I saw everyone who said the were in the PNW but never saw a post from you. The story they told me about the car was it was a new project that just had the drivetrain installed and just needed the wiring done. I didn't know it was running previously to them getting it.


They only let me look quickly at it and I never saw anything that I thought was done wrong I just thought it was odd where they mounted the engine bay fuse box.
