Maybe ZToyZ? That's where I found mine.

I didn't mean it in an offensive way sir sorry I would really like to do this but its something ive never tackled before sure its self explanatory I suppose I was just looking more less for info on what you did and or didn't have to splice and extend or if everything went pretty smooth. sorry to bother ya man!

O&G 03-21-2014 01:30 PM

No worries. I tried to be as detailed as I could. It really isn't that hard. I'd call it a very minor tuck as I didn't have to extend any wires or cut too much. My main goal was to get rid of the looms on each side of the engine bay and get rid of that small relay box. Ill try and get some better pics when I get my car off the lift.

You could defiantly get more crazy about it and do a full tuck, I just didn't desire to do that.

I also have the CJM rails and I can't see the injection harness after re installing the plenum.

No need to call me sir.....i was just being a smart ***!

haha you should see my car O looms and connectors all over the place. I think im going to tackle a full blown tuck ive already gotten everything out anyway. what did you do with the main harness?(the one that runs into the passenger side firewall) did you mess it with much or not really? also from looking at your pictures it seems you were able to clean up the back of the block/firewall area did you just end up using the existing hole by the wiper assembly to do so? I have yet to start tearing the looms apart to separate the wires and connectors so im just trying to piece together a good plan of action before I have myself a nightmare lol. it seems daunting now but im hoping once I get moving things go much smoother.

btw im only 22 man so your likely an elder to me; and maybe I should move to texas! sounds like they teach others manners and respect out there! haha

O&G 03-23-2014 11:31 PM

Yes the wiper motor compartment is the key. Post pics when u get her complete. Very interested 2 see what you come up with!

as long as you have the pics saved to you computed i've always just used the "manage attachments" function within the "go advanced" function.

I see you are in Ohio, how far from Cincy?

Nevermind, just checked. only a couple of hours

Use the [IMG] tag, not [URL]

I assume they are hosted on another server (i.e. not the370z.com). I am also assuming you are on a PC and not MAC.

Right click on the image you want to post and select Copy Image URL. Then use that address in the IMG tag. You can also click the Insert Image icon and paste the address into the box that appears.

Rid3_FaM0uS 03-28-2014 04:40 PM

Yeah im just a few clicks north of you wiggi id love to see your car irl sometime you've got some baller @ss collectibles on that thing man! do you go to any of the area car shows? (street life tour or import face off)?

anyway back on topic ill have to see if I can navigate my tablet to do as you have said wig. im actually using my nexus 7 to take and upload all the images and typically I do save them right here on the forums in my personal albums and image them from there but I must just be going about the process wrong. if I have plenty of time after finishing the last of my engine harness then ill start the write up tonight and update it as I go day by day.
