ordered this painless kit. everything to redo car. will know how painless it is soon...
found a matching bride seat. pick that up when im home.
also ordered all my fuel fittings/corvette FPR/filter/lines.
with some luck itll be running this hitch home.
Got a link for that mate? Need to rewire my 2J S13 and was trying to find kit car switch and relay panels but with no joy, that looks perfect!
Car is so gangster! Would love something like that, I'll keep an eye on this.

heres similar to what i used
Painless 50003 12 Circuit Universal Drag Race Wiring KI | eBay
however. after installing it and such. ive found half of it i dont use nor need, and i could now pretty much make my own from scratch for less coin... theyre good if you suck at wiring. but its still a super big job (mines still not 100% and theres a heap im going to go through and rip out after this event end of the month)
good luck man!

Thanks mate but yea that's expensive if you don't even need half of it, been looking into just getting a relay box just for the essential relays and fuses and make my own from scratch, doesn't look too bad and probably cost less than half of that!
Any pics of your wiring and what you have done would be a massive help though

at the time i though id be using most of it, however after installing it, and doing my ECU stuff differently, i havent any need for the thermo and fuel pump wiring. which im now using the fuel pump relays and switches for my windows.
but yeah. if your half cluey with electrics. look into doing it all yourself. way easier. and ill chuck some pics up when i finish it all up when im home.

gave it a quick hit of shitty paint for now.
hoping to go to mallala on the 21st with some luck. just a few small jobs left.

first prac. interesting night. ill just pinpoint shit
1. the knuckles suck. so so bad. like. holy f**k. theyre f**king bad. swapping stock ones back in and slapping lock spacers in while i save for PBMs set up.
2. the power. oh lordy the power. 4th gear manjis down mallalas back straight is no hassle. i love it. f**k 13bs.
3. need a cage so i can 24/7 the roof down. i dont fit in it with the roof up.
4.cooling system sucks. it was pretty much 110 + the whole night. i just didnt care. going to box thermos in better and duct the rad.
5. the hydro hand brake. does f**k all. going to fab up a dual caliper mount set up and get that cranking.
6. clutch isnt enjoying life
videos kinda suck as it was a wet prac and i span every. f**king. lap. no handbrake made it fair average. but once the track dried and i got heat into the front semis. holy f**k does it rule. fair stoked. somehow the aero didnt explode (much) so many people loosing their shit over it. was rad.
