2 bolts on the swivel, one top to the steering shaft, one lower to the rack. The top is keyed and marking is not needed. All you have to do is make the lower.

no not yet. im racing a guy at work with a mildly built big block in an 85 chevy truck. im gonna grab a gopro hero 2 kit before the race. until then it would just be sitting around. i cant imagine what an exciting video me just driving around would make, even on the bottle. i thought id film some action though 
.... soon enough!
edit: yes and like Vq.turbo.DremZ said, its a g35... hence the lightweight driveshaft mod being on the docket. :/

6 per side, same as OEM, then as mentioned i used 2 studs on the top middle cylinder to hold the gasket in place. Once the header was in place i removed the one stud to put a bolt in the hole.
Do not use a stud on the lower middle hole across from the unused upper stud, it will touch the header before it gets tightened down. I made that mistake and had to remove the header to get the stud out once again.

I got my headers also, I have waited a long time to buy a set of longtubes and it was worth the wait. Absolutely beautiful. Unfortunately between ordering these and now, my plans for the car have changed, I no longer have the funds to put the cams in like I was gonna, which is necessary for the non-revups, and so I'm sticking with test pipes and my xyz-pipe that I have. I'm sad to let these go before even getting a chance to hear and feel how they sound. I know this isn't the classifieds, but I'll just say if someone wants a set of these w/o the wait, I got a set sitting close to TO, Canada 
Good luck to all the rest who are installing their's, and I along with everyone else am anxiously waiting for videos, but mostly DYNOS!!!!!!!!!!!

Family and wiring got in the way but I'll fire it up tomorrow!
I jump the gun on that post didn't think soldering would take forever!
NOTE:
When pairing up the wiring.
Black to Black (doesn't matter)
Blue to Blue
White to White
Don't solder on top of the silver wire (stock wire) it will roll off and not stick!

All correct one of the breather hoses wasn't on. An actually coming from test pipes the idle is no different, only after 3k does it go wild.
After actually finishing only gripes is the gaskets, actually was thinking of putting the stock metal ones back on! Also a little heads up on wrapping them in a shirt or something while putting them in....stupid dings/scratches!
The green thingy is a sock!
