Nice, the seats look hot too but I would have gotten coilovers first instead of seats.

what kind of rail is that behind the seats?

at first i thought it was a rollcage of sorts, but i can just see the bulky one, and two smaller ones connecting next to the seats.

i like it

I would also like to know where did you get that harness bar? Also, where did you get the cross-drilled rotors for the q45 brakes?

crash n' burn: i got the seats from http://soloracer.com/ they were $280 each. i ordered them on monday and they had them to me before the weekend. they also had excellent customer service. they let me return the aluminum brackets that i didn't use. the rails i got from http://projectnissan.com/ they were 350 shipped for the pair. and just so don't make my mistake you don't need the corbeau aluminum side mounts. just buy the nagisa rails and seats and it will fit perfect. also yea that is just surface rust on the floor. the car came from southern mississippi, and i have stored it ever winter since i brought it up here. that is all the rust it has on it. and that only because the sunroof was leaking before.

tramp_drift240: that is a harness bar that i got from Import Auto Performance in iowa. they had it drop shipped to me. i had it three days after ordering it. it is very very solid and fit perfect. i got it for 310 shipped. there number is 321-226-3834

mike240: the wheels are 17x7 +40mm with 225/45/17

TRUSE-R: also the rotors are from brakepros (978) 454-0692 and they are having a 10% off sale right now. for front q45's drilled for 4 bolt and stock rear rotors shipped it was like 180. it was an extra 10 to have them drilled to 4 lug.

Nick51: the rotors and q45 calipers bolted right up you just have to make sure to have the rotors drilled for 4 lug. i also had to cut off the dust shield in the front because the rotor is bigger in diameter and thickness. and thanks for giving yokota180sx a hard time.

yokota180sx: as Nick51 and mrgreeneyes pointed out i have harnesses in the car. the harness bar is bolted to the seatbelt bolt holes. not the floor. as can be seen in the pics. the engine bay is blue because that is the color i am painting the car i did the engine bay though when i did the motor swap so i wouldn't have to pull the motor out later.

brakepros is on ebay i called them though to add the stock rear rotors so i could get combined shipping. i had the rotors less than a week from ordering them.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...ZWDVW

as for the harnesses around the harness bar i thought the same thing. but i asked multiple companies that sell fixed seats and harnesses. also i talked to a professional driver/instructor and they all said that you need to have bolt in harnesses with a harness bar. they said the pivot point is actually exactly what you want so that the pressure is applied to the bar and not you. they also said that wrap around harnesses are meant only for roll cages. i just went by what they said.

Nick51: sure no problem with the help. i will post some pics later tonight or tom. of the diff. in rotors and calipers. i haven't driven it yet. but they are considerably bigger. i will let you know how they feel. i also put on the russell ss lines all the way around. i am not sure how other brands of lines are but if i were to get them again i wouldn't get the russell's the fitment just wasn't that great. the calipers were reman wagners for $75 each.

crash n' burn: i am not sure about the bolt in cage but yes they do offer the camera mount. Import Auto Performance has them on ebay right now but i called them and they gave me $10 off shipping.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...ZWDVW

yokota180sx: they are crossed in the back. thank you for the advise.
