Re: My RHD 240 Build Thread
heres some pics of the engine bay
cleaned up the motor some, it was covered in body dust etc.
and a test fit on the seat...
also this was in the car, prolly put that whole argument to rest on if it was that kids or not.
and my screwed up dash

Re: My RHD 240 Build Thread
Larry I have some suggestions for you before you throw the motor in that car that will make your life much much easier.
I'd buy an S14 SR20 waterneck, a turbo gasket set (get the S15 manifold gasket), some braided turbo lines (you'll have to tell them you have a red top with T25 but you have a S14 waterneck), go ahead and do your front and rear main seals, check out all of your sensors/just replace (TPS, IACV, ACC, O2, CTS) them because it is easy as shit to work on the motor outside of the car.
I'd order everything through: thenismoshop.com - the prices there are great and they usually have the stuff I listed in stock (minus the turbo lines).

Re: My RHD 240 Build Thread
I have a rhd s13 dash if you want one? It's not perfect but it doesn't have huge holes it. I haven't looked at it in a while but iirc it has a crack or 2 in it. PM me if you're interested.

Dang Larry.... Sti, fd, 240, is there one other I'm forgetting? That's a full garage.
Hit me up if you ever want a hand with wiring and such.
