are you actually going to be swapping the whole doors? i thought about it but i don't want to deal with getting the new doors lined up perfectly. I'm swapping all the power option door gut into my base model doors. I'm sure you already know this, but the body harness has to be swapped out for an SE body harness for all the options. It's kind of a pain but i had good help and it was a great opportunity to remove a plethora of unnecessary wires

the vert has power options as well does the hatch doors i got. Wiring up the window switches and locks aren't really an issue.

Lining up the door (if becomes troublesome) is better than dealing with a 100lbs+ door and chopping off the excess.

The whole car is going under body work so doors would be coming on and off regardless.

the ugly pillars that house the seatbelt mechanism and they weight about 40lbs heavier on each side compared to the hatch doors I will be swapping them out for.

How bout you give me that Zenki, you can keep the Vert and Chuki. I'll gladly keep that for you, that bone stock Rb25 I mean Ka24e even has hub caps

On a side note, those doors look almost new, hate the midwest .

Are S chassis readily available down south, in mint condition?

@ Coolwhip, Placham

No turbo setup as of yet. Still keeping my peepers peeped though!

That was formerly your mani placham? You forgot the throttle-body and t-bolt clamps! lol!

I have two different trucks and trailer options lined up. How does pickup on 30 or 31 sound?

Rb20det here, wish I had an Rb25 so Greddy IM would be chillin' in my engine bay I dont really want to get another RB, but a second time I would probably get Rb26 FTW. I have too much $hit at my house. Let's see 2xKa24DE's, 1xKA24E, 3xauto trans, 1xmanual trans. I have to start getting rid of these things first. Once your hooked on Nissan, it's hard to say"NO", like an addiction.LOL

Aha 30 or 31 you say, I'll tail you. So when you stop for a pissy-piss on a Rest Area. I'll be waiting and watching, once your done your wheels and trailer with your newely picked-up chassis are gona be history. LOL

Off topic here, but would R32 RB26DETT Apexi FC commander work on a R32 RB20DET. Think some wires have to be repinded right?

With some work you can have it running. Shoot, I have my RB25 running on a Automatic RB20 ECU, haha.
