So while im over here making a ton of money i decided to buy a new wiring harness since my old one was pretty beat and on its way out with crumbling and broken wires everywhere. Purchased a brand new harness and one of my buddies is in the process of installing it for me. Lol probably one of the things we all hate to do. But its gonna be pretty cool, hes making it so its fully removable and some other little mods to it.

Well havent had any updates in a while lol mostly cuz im deployed till october. But anyhow while my car is sitting in my shop collecting dust. Im over here buying random parts that i need for it and jumping on deals that i see. Well i ended up picking up some stance ss coils from a member on here with less then 2k miles for 950 shipped along with FINALLY finding a aero bumper back home from someone i knew for about 50 bucks. Oh and also jumped on a deal to buy a sparco seat from a friend for a $100 and finally another rear hatch.. since i regrettably sold mine to fund my engine build at the time. Other then that nothing much has been happening and just waiting to come home and get done with this car

Since so many people have asked about my custom crossmember and custom steering rack support. Id thought id post some pics up of it all. So enjoy!
Directly in front:
^^ as u can see in this pic the stock fc crossmember has been hacked off to only include the sides. Then a custom crossmember in the back has been welded in with stock 240sx mount points and the custom front steering rack support has been welded in as well
Another view of the main crossmember:
Left side where the steering rack mounting bars are welded to the old fc subframe:
From the right side where the main crossmember and rack mounting bar connect to old subframe:
Drivers side view of steering rack and mounting bars:
Passenger side view:
Now the only thing that sucks about the steering rack mounting bar is that i cant use a regular aftermarket oil pan for a SR. I would have to make a custom one which im going to do soon. But stock one works for now. Also dont mind how dirty the shop and car are lol. Im deployed now so my car just sits in the back of my shop and my friends are dirty as hell haha but anyways hope that helps everyone

Well small update.. I randomly was researching FC diffs since i still have alot to learn about the FC. Ive only drifted nissans before the FC. Anyways while doing that i found out my Cusco 2-way that i recently got for trading for my old bolt in Cusco cage was a Cusco 2 way in a n/a housing.. Well im currently runnning a t2 lsd thats been welded so found out that the 2-way wont work for my car. Kinda sad cause i was so excited to try it out. But now its for sale for 550 obo.. Sucks.. cause it looks so clean! Well you live and learn i guess lol
