Those hose fittings look awesome. The crimps add some 'pro' to it for sure.

If your talking about the fuel line one.. I made a bracket from alum angle..and mounted it with 1/4× 20 nutserts. .. I went back and looked at the picture I think there is an existing nissan nut welded into the frame there as well .
So might not be nutserts added id have to look at it again.
Then just drilled and used 2 -6 AN bulkhead fittings .I usually use some grade 8 sae washers (they're a tighter fit) I recall having to use a die grinder to make them fit over the threads..

Cunifer 3/8 along Floorplan and then to -6 lines.
Feed goes direct to fuel rail and return to regulator. Then out of reg back to tank.

flex fuel sensor mounted under intake for E85 which will be able to tell ecu alcohol content to vary tune for timing and boost based off of that ..
Looking good man. Keep up the good work!!

Where did you get those headlights and how much bucket cutting did you have to do?

Dapper lighting--you just missed a nov sale-- i can prob get you a small disc as ive bought 5 sets already--

NO cutting required -- i was a little overboard and cut the tabs of the back to center the lights and then a small bead of silicone to make sure theyre almost perfectly centered.. seems like on ALL old cars none of the new 5.75s seem to match the tabs to the headlight buckets-- had the same issue on a 67 chevelle and a 64

The lights look great. I like how you did the Integra wiper motor. I am thinking of adapting a late 80s / early 90's Ford truck variable intermittent to the Integra wiper. The issue is one is ground switched and the other is power switched. Think I have it figured out with a micro relay but not sure if the BIG Ford wiper switch will work. Finding a intermittent system from a 620 has proven elusive and/or stupid expensive

Looks great. Did you go with the v-band so you can take the exhaust out 'easily' when needed? When I get to my exhaust (will have to go somewhere) I will have them put in a flex joint but wondering if v-band would make my life easier in the future.
