hey ant... i just want to confirm that you can work with these two sensors... they look ****ed up beyond recognition so I was thinking or ordering these two anyway... 5th gear switch and 4th gear switch respectively?

second switch closest to neutral pos switch

and the next switch after that going towards bellhousing from neutral pos switch
Image

that's it so far... just need to pick up the rest of the pieces from antony and then the wiring of the power fc shall commence.

Very nice.

You should sign the vert registry. They are trying to keep track of every USDM vert .

truth be told... i started collecting parts for a 2jz with plans for the vert...but I didn't feel right about putting atoyota motor in a nissan. so i bought the built sr20 and i bought a sc300 lol. v160/2jzgte/some big a** turbo and i'll be ok. gs400 rear end and some stand alone tbd. nostalgia's a b****... but in the end i'll be able to sleep knowing the "right" motors in the right car. but that's just me

as for suspension, buddy club racing spec+ coils and I was going to ask nico about suspension arms/bars. I was thinking a whole isis or circuit sports suspension arm package

Glad to see the silvia front end is going to good use. I forgot to give you the brackets for bumper, but I have them if you want to come get them.

Isis arms aren't too bad actually. I had their rucas on my s13 and they lasted on the crappiest roads.. Everything looked great when I opened the box. Stance is now selling arms/rods too if interested. Don't forget SPL and PSM...
