Yes sir, Also if it's not too much trouble could you get a pic of your alternator setup? Thanks.

decided to just dive into the car last night, started going from the alternator connector and working my way back, noticed the IG wire was broken (Middle Wire on the oval plug) Looked at the diagrams that shows that goes to a switched 12V. so i ran a temp wire to test it, and poof working alternator! Thanks again for any help!

What are you guys using for radiator hoses with an sr radiator. Just random ones for the parts store or do some stock ones fit?

If you plan on using electric fans, and don't really feel like any type of DIY, CX Racing has a "kit", but you could honestly make something using the pictures as a reference.

Has anybody had any luck with the stock front sway bar? I know about the Sikky and the spacers, but are there any other alternatives? Also, where do you get spacers? I'm getting ready to drop everything in and want to make sure I have that squared away.

Which swap kit are you using? People have varied success depending on what brackets they have for the motor mounts. I have a ZeroLift kit, and I'm not 100% sure my stock sway bar will fit without spacers or anything, but I'm optimistic.

They are the basic eBay mounts in a S14.

Stock sway bar won't fit at all with any mount kit unless you have spacers, silky, or one of the skyline sway bars if memory serve me right.

So the sway bar has to be messed with no matter mounts (Freed) im using, but does the crossmember need to be modified in order to fit the engine in?

So your hood didn't close with freed mounts and the stock sway bar? No disrespect, just trying to decipher whatever you said. Thanks

soo.. How hard would it be to wire a mk4 instrument cluster into an s13?
Would the gauges work tach, speedo, gas, etc?
I've searched but, no luck on any info.

No just saying if the stock sway bar fit there would be no chance the hood would close, my hood closes fine with the freed mounts and fits way better than it did with the xcessive mounts, I'm on solid aluminum mounts http://m.ebay.com/itm/110513673241?nav=SEARCH
The clearance to the subframe is perfect I couldn't ask for tighter lol

any thing is possible but Seems like a hassle for something that wont fit well, the mk4 cluster is flush mount and uses the dash as a bezel I would just order phr gauges without the cluster

I ordered a set of Daft spacers for $65 shipped. They say they're for LSX swaps, but I think they should work.
