Well, mostly, anyway.



The swap was done by myself and John (banzaitoyota). While we were working on the motor, we also repainted the engine bay, rewired the Haltech, removed all wiring in the driver's side harness that was no longer used (i.e. headlight popup controls, etc), and installed a GReddy R-spec FMIC.



Things yet to be done include finishing up wrapping the wiring loom, replacing a test pipe in the IC setup with a mandrel bent aluminum one, and starting on the interior wiring (gauges and whatnot).



Anyway, hope you enjoy. . . http://scrx-7s.com/images/ReeseAE

well, I'm using my old 13B-T map at the moment, but I'm still staying out of boost for the most part. I have the OZ DIY wideband ordered, so when it gets here I'll tune her in better.



Right now, cold start is a bit off, and I think I'm going to have to replace the Cosmo TPS with the Haltech one. I can't seem to calibrate the Cosmo one no matter what I do.



Thanks for the compliments, guys!

Looks sweet. Are those 300ZX rims on the car? I hope this turns out to be everything you desire in your car. Good luck and don't blow the motor.

7mech, yep they ARE 300Z rims. I got them cheap, and they're decently wide. I just need to upgrade the rubber to a better size now.
