Well storm I am stealing your thread lol. Today was day 1 of getting my car ready for the installation. Tomorrow the the exhaust comes with the test pipes and oil cooler. On wed my TT kit will be here, well most of it, and the rest comes in on thurday. The spacing out of everything is nice since it allows me to keep up with it. So taday I removed the front bumber, intakes, removed both headers, stearing coupler, and the entire exhaust. Every thing was going great till I got to the driver side header. That damn thing is a major pain in the rear, like what was Nissan thinking lol. I am going to wait till last before putting the echaust in that way i have more room on the ground. So the plan for tomorrow is I am going to drop the oil pan, remove the intake manifold, remove the O2 sensors, and get the fuel rails ready for the new injectors. Also will probably get the oil cooler installed since that goes behind the inner-cooler. Just letting you know where I am at, I think I did awsome and got alot done today consider three bolts on the driver side header were stuck in there.

LOL yea I am thinking along the same lines, I am a idiot lol. Today was a shocker while I was removing the fuel rails to get the injectors out, the fedex guy pulled up and droped off 2 boxes =). SO i got the oil cooler and thew twin turbo kit a day early. I wasn't planning on it to arrive untill tomorrow, but was glade to see it. So since I really wasn't set up for everything I removed the fuel pump and installed the new. For something so smal I was shocked to see how long it took to do it. I started to install the driver side manifold, just have 2 more bolts. Replaced all the injectors and reinstalled the fuel rail. So tomorrow is going to be the big money making day since not much progress got done. I have some drilling and taping to do so I can install the passenger header.

As for my own thread kind of thought about it 1 it's fun to take over storms thread =). 2 my build is preaty much exactly like Storms since his goals were the same as mine and his car is ubber sexy, didn't seem wise to make another thread on the same exact thing. 3 I am just trying to keep the few people that helped me with everything I needed, (one person that was nice enough to call someone for me when I was freaking out) informed on my progress. Originally I was going to make it a DIY but no need for that, Sam hooked me up with great instructions and when ever I have a question he is a call away and spends the time with me till I undersrtand. If anyone has any questions feel free top pm me and I would be glade to answer.
