Hello,

This is my first real post in the zilvia boards.

My goal with my current project is to create a mixed matched silvia/240sx that will be my daily driver as well as my weekend track car. I know what your thinking. WOW what a project.

But wait theres more. I want to use ONLY parts with true nissan part numbers or parts from Nismo, Nissans performance division, the car must appeare stock. I know still not very hard right? Well im taking it to a level of extreme fanatasism.

Here is what im looking at for a plan.

JDM exterior conversion *NEARLY COMPLETE*
KA-T motor *GATHERING PARTS NOW*
Z32 front and rear brakes *PARTS SOURCED*
Z32 VLSD Conv *PARTS SOURCED*
Sun roof install *GATHERING PARTS NOW*
JDM silvia interior conv *GATHERING PARTS NOW*
NISMO suspension *GATHERING PARTS NOW*

Now that you have an idea of what im trying to do lets see if you guys can help me anwser a few questions.

I want to install the JDM thermostate rim with buisness card holder but I have read that they dont work in the 98 s14 usdm chassis? Is this true? Is there no way to move the card holder so it fits? Iv heard you can put a dent in the crash bar under the dash but to me that isnt even an option. Any help is appreciated.

I recently bought JDM fog lights for my bumper and now im trying to fgure out a clean install. I am searching for a usdm or jdm turn signal arm wtih fog light controls. If I find this part is it plug and play? Can I just wire in the fog lights?

Also, has anyone gotten the boost gauge that comes in the S14 JDM DIN gauges to work? If so how? I know there are sensors off the Z32 to make oil pressure work but im not sure about the boost gauge.

Thanks for the help guys. I appreciate it.

Sincerely
Alex R.
