Ha! I started my thread, what, 4 days earlier and I'm no further ahead then you are!!! I've got my Nismo/Tomei/GReddy/special 'Daryl@JDMSpeedShop parts' order in right now. At least you have the majority of bits on hand!!

But reading through, our builds are quite alike (as are our bills!!)!! We'll have to hook up for a comparato some day!! If we ever get these things running!!

yeah its been 10 months now since that kid killed my car. Soon now.
Got an email back from RHDJapan regarding the injector clips...

Hello,
Thanks for the question. Unfortunately those are the clips that sard provides and they dont sell the other types. They say in the manual that you will need to modify the body of the injector for the clip to fit. We have found that a little bit of caulking around the body will hold the injector clip securely in place. I have also seen zip ties around the clip pulled tight to hold them on.

How gay is that??

Anyways, lots more done yesterday.
