The past 2 days I have been wiring my car and wish I would not have used a painless harness it turned in to a pain in the butt. They dont use relays in there fuse block and I dont like that. So I wired in relays and removed about 15 wires out of there harness. In short I should have just have made a fuse block my self.
I have the rear tails and fuel pump just need to wire my switch panel I made and headlight.

This past weekend I pulled my motor back out and install my new twin disk and new 350z trans using a maverick motorsports install kit. Everything bolted on perfect all bolt holes lined up and trans was very centered no crazy adapters had to be used for the flywheel.

Everything is looking great! Wow.
*Have you thought about putting those Ebay clear lenses over the factory inner housings? Those Ebay lights are nottt the best quality as you'll probably see when you try to adjust them- and/or when the LEDs go out.- Especially considering all the quality parts it'd kinda be a shame! Tho I understand it's cheap to replace if you hit something drifting, but yeh.
By the way, are the wheel wells going to be left like that? If it's sturdy enough I might consider doing that same sort of thing vs. enclosed custom arches... hmm

Ya the wheel wells are fine tue front have support of the tube add from the strut tower to the frame. The headlights are not my first choice but like you said easy to replace.

okayy so im not so good with wiring and all but ive got some friends that are. and are planning on helping out. i have my 1j sc300 all stock last year basically and i ended up stripping it down for track use only like yourself. i took out pretty much all of the wiring besides the main engine harness. did you strip out all of the wiring also and then run a painless fuse block and push button start and fuel pump on a switch? im hoping to finish mine up asap but im looking for the easiest way wiring wise to get this thing back together and running. any info or help would be greatly appreciated considering i managed to miss this entire season of drifting
thank you

This car has zero of the stock harness and I used a painless kit that was the worst thing I did since I had to add relays for everything since they only use direct power for everything. My car has switches to control everything I did not use any stock switchs.
