Got as much done as we could this am. Would keep going but wiring isn't ready :-( soon. Very soon.

 

[Kenny123]

Mayor West we are about to do the 1st start up hahahaha. Kidding kidding.

 

[Ark :D]

Don't forget to install your clutch master cylinder soon. Gentle reminder, as it is not part of the videos, and easy to forget.

Enkei Raijins? I ran a set on my daily for a few years.

Do tell .... I didn't realize that was an issue

Basically, make sure you've installed three pedals instead of just the two in the vids. Based on the pics you're at a good spot to do this

During this activity you may notice your gas pedal is significantly behind the brake / clutch. Some users (including myself) have created gas pedal extensions. I'm happy to 3D print and send you one if you'd like with the disclaimer i'm not at fault if **** goes sideways bc of it lol

 

[Kenny123]

Lol thanks dude!! I've noticed the gas pedal hits the bulk head and I was worried about that. The clutch pedal i didn't realize would be an issue so I appreciate the help!!

This thing. Clutch master cylinder goes in the circle, and also put your clutch line in the tunnel.

 

[Mayor West]

Don't do what I did and forget to put your clutch line in until everything else is already in. It was a nightmare to fish through after everything else was already in place.

 

[Kenny123]

Started yesterday morning and Making good progress. Thank you all for the info on the clutch line. That was a pain enough WITHOUT all the other crap in the way haha. I am so in love with this process.

Much appreciated! I took your advice and its good now.

 

[Mayor West]

Even though I finally got mine started you should still take your time...........

Did you rivet or rivnut the floor? Main reason I ask is you'll probably want to rivnut the passenger side kickplate and the bottom holes can be a pain to drill out and rivnut without your floor paint taking an L - there just isn't enough room for the tools as well as have a straight shot at the holes. Also, wait to actually install the kickplate until after yo have your front control arms and steering rack torqued down.

If you've rivnut the floor you can unscrew just the front > rivnut kickplate and bolt back in cleanly.

edit; I sweat that garage!
