I've got the intercooler and radiator 90% mounted. I just need to drill some holes in the upper core support to attach the upper brackets to hold the radiator in. I'll take pics tomorrow.

Now that I have that done, I can route my headlight wires under the intercooler and mock up the intercooler pipes and coolant hoses. Can I mount the relays for the "upgraded" headlight wiring in the fuse panel? I have two spaces I can mount relays in my fuse panel and I know I want to add relays as suggested by Dime Quarterly. Is mounting the relays that far from the headlights counterproductive?

I also finally got my wheels. TSW Kyalami 16X7. I've wanted these wheels since before I had the car. TSW stopped producing them over two years ago and I've been searching ever since. I change encounter on eBay landed me these beauties.

If only they were 18x8's....then again, the wheel wells are a bit smaller. Nice progress, though. Just out of curiosity, why didn't you go with the jmfab intake? I know you said you had clearance issues with the master cylinder, but couldn't you've just shortened the runners a bit more and gotten the clearance you needed? Still, good shit. My mom used to have this exact same year of Datsun, and I remember riding in it from Denver, Co. all the way to Ft. Wayne, IN back in '89. It took it like a champ.
 
There are a couple of people who have managed to squeeze 18s under theses cars. Mario Lozano being one of them.

The JMF intake I had was already a "race" unit that had the shortest runners they offer. With the price and how nice the unit was, I didn't want to modify it to work. There needed to be some substantial work to make it fit. I think my solution was probably the right choice. We'll see. I think my solution also keeps it a little more factory looking.
