says the man with the shop, this is an indy venture and my first rb (btw E i need a fmic with the end tanks on the same side). yeah my bad being a smart ass, i was a bit tired. we got the motor out today. i cut the core support and pulled it straight out, it hung a little bit on one of the steering rack hard lines. that clip was all motor and the second i lifted it out the clip nearly fell off the stands. i chased the wires in the lower harness and will start on the engine harness when i get up today. my tentative plan goes like this:

tomorrow chase wires, clean garage/motor/tool, remove clip.

i'll do the wiring on tuesday and prep the sr for the pull, take off the bumper, lights, fenders, blow through fmic, upper/lower harnesses, drain fluids and generally get everything ready to pull and drop.

weds will be the big show. start pullin the sr at around 2 p.m., it shouldnt take more than 30min. then drop the cross member and bolt the rb in using the tophat mounts. then, somehow, drag the rb under the car and drop the car on top of it. dont ask me how i havent gotten there yet. i figure the motor should be in the car between 6 and 8 p.m. if it gets in that early ima take a shower and head for the titty bar or the movies or something.

thursday i'll install the wiring harnesses, intercooler bs (im going to cut the inner fender outta the skyline and weld it into mine so my inner fender doesnt end up lookin like Es purple car), and fluids. then i'll try and start it up. when that doesnt happen i'll go to bed.

friday should be all trouble shooting and maybe a trip to the muffler shop if i get done in time.

its a bit ambitious but i think we should be able to make it. if i worked 12 hrs a day i could probably get it done in 2 days, but i dont want to work that hard. so if any of the nissan faithful are up near cumming and want to come by, post up and i'll let you know where i am. if you have any advise id appreciate it.
