Some nice progress there R even thou some hours wasted with fitting parts wrong way around. I'm sure it's happened to most of us but it's always funny when it happens to some one else.
Did you need to cut that much out of the tunnel to fit the top loader or was it just an easier way to work on things?

It's looking :spoton:

It made it easier but I actually just went on what Rockets car had done to it. If you have to weld it back, might as well make it bigger.

I think getting both right actually did it as it then sat square.
I am getting those other A9X stubs and will set up the Nissan 4 spots up on the bench with lines etc so I can just swap them out in 2 hours thanks to Rocket and MRNOS. :clap:
