lol, so you have to walk to the pass. side to unlock the door then walk around to the drivers side to get in?
I took the locks out of my OG doors then put them in to my coupe doors. I think you can swap the locks from pass. to driver side too, I remember being very careful not to switch mine because they looked so similar

Also i got my new spl subframe spacers in the mail today

Rims look nice...can't wait to see them with tires and mounted on your car. Did you use a local shop to powder coat? If so was it in the "Fayettenam" area or closer to the Charlotte area? I was also wondering if the shop had any concerns about powder coating rims. I've heard some places don't like to do rims because when you bake the rims it can cause them to get brittle. But I don't know anything about this...just what I've read on some forums. Keep us posted.

i used to do coatings and being brittle after bake has never been a problem.

i only baked normal powders at 300 degrees. i highly doubt that is hot enough to mess up the molecular structure of the wheels.

Cool...that's what I was thinking as well...I think some people were just putting out bogus info about powder coating. Brake temps well exceed 300 degrees and though I'm sure rim temps don't reach that, I wouldn't think the baking temp would effect the rims. I've had a few items on my car powder coated and plan to have a few more things done but I would like to find a good shop that does it locally so I don't have to pay shipping. Thanks again for the info 240daveTX .

Not so good.... I broke mine just shortly after putting my new wheels on think i spun a bearing again.... I'm dreading going out to mess with it in fear of that and the machine shop hasn't even touched my spare block to get it ready for my forged internals so it's been a bad day

I think I have one of those Nissan logo's that goes on the door pillar. Next time I head over to the shop I'll look in my parts boxes to see if I can find one. Email me your address and I'll send it to you if I find it. My email is in my profile.

Any of our sponsors (look on the right).

Weatherstriping may have to be custom or ebay. New door panels probably don't exsist, best bet is to find used and/or get an upohlstery shop.

Check ebay/craigslist and our classifieds for a used AT tranny. Should be many around due to 5-speed swaps, any '91-'94 AT tranny will work.
