Looks great!

Do you think you'll run the pump without the fan or vice versa?

I didn't use separate switches on mine

I'll run the pump first. If the temps don't come down the way I would like them to. Then I'll switch the fan on. I'll know more once I'm back up and running, and have some experience with it.

Gauges are done.

I have to trim a little in one spot on the panel. And try to figure out my YAW sensor switch. Trying to have it work with a lighted switch that has 3 plugs on the back. A ground, load, and power.

Pic's of what behind the cubby looks like now.

Some pic's of the gauges installed, and the motor running.
The oil pressure spikes to 100 psi and stays there for awhile. Then drops down to about 40psi. Have the LED warning light set at 25 psi.

Since I have the water temp sensor in the upper rad hose. It will see temp after the thermostat is open. So I will see the Dots move first. Have the LED warning light set at 255F.

Have to label the switches yet.

Have to finish routing the wires back to the diff. Pull the diff. Install the OS Giken LSD, the SPL diff bushings, and diff cooler yet. Have the LED warning light set to 255F.

You are the man...so much WIN!!!!

Bum arm and bruised ribs from said arm giving out the other day when trying to finish the inside wiring. Arm gave out and I bounced off the lower seat side bolster.

So today..........feeling well enough to finish running the wiring from the dash to the rear of the Z, inside the spare tire area. I got it done. Had to watch how I twisted and how much weight I put on my arm.

1st pic. The wiring under the console.
2nd pic. Wiring going under the rear of the console.
3rd pic. Wiring in the red harness coming out from the front of the Z.
4th pic. Wiring going through the frame.
5th pic. Wiring coming out of the frame and where it will go through the body to the outside of the Z. See the plug there.

More pic's. The foam filler piece that goes in the void in front of the frame shock towers. When I did phunk's RRP years ago. I had trimmed that foam piece so that I could remove it if I had to in the future. Without removing all of the plastic interior panels. I was thinking ahead when I did this.

Suspension necessities if you want to put and keep the power down!

Got parts today from Z1. XP10 and XP8 pads and a Z1 brake master cylinder brace.

Rusty · 11-01-2017, 09:33 PM

And since I had the wheels off. I decided to chase the threads on the wheel studs and lug nuts to clean them up with a 12mm x 1.25mm tap and die.

You can always do what I did...You’d have to get help w/the torque wrench.
