It's all good fellas, just don't let it happen again! Lol jk.
I have full working power steering and A/C. It was tough getting a/c on the car because of clearance with the radiator however with much trial and error we got it to fit. This car will maintain full functionality.
Last thing I have to see is as soon as we finish wiring up the car I don't know if my guages will work. I'd hate to have to go to a totally different instrument cluster but I gotta do what I gotta do if so. This job was a lot bigger than I wanted to do, but after its all done its going to be something that will catch almost any car on the road by surprise.
The shop is about 75% done with the wiring and after that just buttoning it all back up. I can't wait...

LSX motor stock GM ECU and i think the price is $1,000-$1,500 not really sure what i paid for it i got a sweet deal on it because the company that i work for sponsored one of the guys at computech racing. But those prices are for any after market cluster they are around the same prices and i am dealers for them all. They all will work with any ECU and come with their own sensors.

"xJC350x" Im lovin all the hate you got back a few months ago when you first started this swap, how everyone was telling you to keep the VQ and not do the RB swap. I got banded for this websit for a month back in Nov because one of the mods was talkin trash about this type of swap and i spoke out and he got mad and banded me of a month lmao so i know just how u feel when it comes to all the haters out their. I myself hate the the way a TT VQ sounds and how short of a powerband the VQ has, with the RB you have a huge powerband and it sounds 100x better then any TTVQ. Im just starting my RB30DET Swap in my Z and will be knee deep come this july when we pull the VQ out, i alred have a forum member on stand by thats gunna buy my VQ and all my mods to help out with the $$$ of the swap. This swap aint cheap but then again what is when it comes to cars and quality, this swap aint for little boys . What trans are you going to use? Im stickin with the 350Zs stock 6 speed trans and just making a custom Trans adapter, but i might use the R34 6 speed AWD trans a mod it to RWD, just dont want to give up a good 6 speed for a 5 speed. Lovin the swap man, keep up the good work and post more pics!!! and there better be a dyno video or two and some good street pulls. Oh btw what exhaust setup are you going with? Im anouther a week or two away from getting my custom 3inch HKS Ti Single Fabed up with a bumper tuck which we are gunna do this after noon. You gunna run duals or single with a bumber tuck?
