Oh, I was about to say. That's still not too bad, though. Good job, nonetheless.

Nice build!!! Sorry you had to go through everything you went through. At least you have some good and bad memories of this swap. Why don't you put together a more comprehensive list of what you went through so the next person can avoid it and make the swap that much better? Either way you did an outstanding job with the hand you were dealt.

It would take a while. As soon as I get the car 100% ill see if I can remember everything I went through. After going through what I went through..im guessing im gonna be the LS2/350z tech support since I had to pretty much figure everything out for myself.
