not to sound like i know everything... just trying to help u out! but u sound like u have no clue what so ever about what u are getting yourself into...i am actually finishing up my vq35hr build!
http://zilvia.net/f/chat/397304-vq35hr-s13-build.html
i know u are doing the 37vhr but they are very similar and the starter is not even close to the firewall so u don't have to bash it in for that.... that big thing on the back of the engine, which will be in ur way is the VEL-assembly actuator ...the starter will actually sit on the steering rack.... its a pain in the ass... i have gone thru this.. if u read my build thread u will see i went and did RHD conversion because i didn't want to mess with modifying the sub frame or lowering the sub frame like the ls1 guys did in the beginning....for suspension geometry reasons. but i later heard (not sure if its true or if it will work on the 37) but i was told that to relocate the starter on an hr to the opposite side like the de u can swap the mid and sub oil pans from the hr to the de... but i also don't know if the hr or de trans is used...also i went with the factory ecu flashed with UPREV that removes BCM and NATS system... and u can keep the DBW setup which is what i am doing, the 350z pedal actually bolts right up to the s13 stock location, but u have to bend the pedal up a lil from hitting the floor... just my 2 cents...
