I would keep your heater core, run the heater lines etc.

I mean what do you mean? Like specifically?

The AC depends on region. On a nice 97 like yours I would keep the AC unit up front (looks like rad) and all the lines and just recharge the system and use it.

You could keep the charchoal cnaster too although I havent used one on an sr ever hmmm

Clean up the wiring while your in there and upgrade to z32 fuel filter, a little bigger and sold at your local auto parts store.

Change the motor mounts to SR nismo or better imo also.

Yeah for sure.

I remove heater cores and all the assemblies under dash on the cars i seriously RACE. Daily driver I keep everything.

If your car is not a weekend car (like my SR car is pretty much) then keep as much as you can,and just focus on a torque friendly drivetrain/engine/turbo.

The ladies will love 330 ft lbs of trq (later down the road) wiht AC, Heater and your warm hand on their thigh than 500 hp and loud bumping insanity.

unless you date the crazy cali chicks haha. used to brah-mobiles.
