Ok so my redtop is finally in my s14, and everything is running great! The day after I brought it home it wouldn't start, but it ended up being just a bad negative battery cable so everything is cool. Anyhow, thanks to everyone on here who has answered a question for me in the last 2 years, now i'm finally ready to get down to business. Next upgrade: LSD. I can get an R32 LSD but i'm worried about the FD, i believe it's ~4.3 (correct me if i'm wrong). Anyhow, check the link for pics, i figured i'd use cardomain's bandwidth instead of NICO's.

I should mention that the guys who did all of the hard work on this thing did a great job. If you're in the south and need a swap these are the guys to take it to. Mike and Sammy from Jordan Automotive and V&T Performance respectively. Sammy did a GREAT job flush mounting my electronics in abs plastic, you can't really appreciate it from my crappy pictures but the flip down face on my headunit clears the turbo timer by about 3 or 4 mm. Also, my A/C is fully functional with the factory control unit, it cycles properly and everything! Anyhow, let me know what you think.

Looks good. I'm a sucker for a simple and clean interior.

They're mounted in ABS plastic. I don't know where he got it but its close in color and grain to my dash and trim. The boost gauge is mounted in the cigarette lighter hole, but i'll have to have him redo that soon because i cracked the outer trim piece (that goes around the whole stereo area and includes the lighter hole) when i was putting in my head unit like 8 months ago.
