Exactly how much trouble was the wiring swap over and what did you use to over come the issues at hand.....schematics of the electrical layout from Nissan??

*****Yes, the wiring was tedius. I used Nissan shop manuals, for both the donor car ['93 B13 XE] and the '89 4WD B12 project car. Here are some pics of the custom 2" mandrel bent exhaust system that I fabricated from U and J bends. I ported the ex. manifold to get the outlet as close to 2" as I could. Then I bored out the stock front pipe to ex. manifold flange on a lathe, to fit the 2"" headpipe. You can also see the modified cast iron alternator bracket that I lightened up with a sawsall. The original bracket was much larger because it included the mount for the A/C compressor as well.
