Seriously though - I actually redid the wiring for both front bumper corner lights, extending the wires a couple inches (so there was no tension) and connecting them to the OEM wires that lead to the parking/city light bulb in the headlamp (the small one that shares the same housing as the main headlamp - not the signals). Both the front bumper/corner lights and the parking/city lights share the same fused circuit so it's ok to wire the bumper/corner lights into the parking/city light wiring harness.
Thank you sir

Sell the Old Car.
- It all started when I decided to sell my 1995 240SX SE S14 5-speed. The Nissan had a lot of mods done to it: TEIN Flex coil overs with EDFC, Battle Version links, genuine Nismo strut bar and motor mounts, C's short shifter, Final Konnexion headlamp lenses, JDM grille, JDM spoiler, custom subwoofer install, etc. It came a long way from how it was when I first got it, and I spent a lot of time on Club240 as a mod because of how active I was online at that time. However too many miles on the mountains, AC leaking, another illegal smog coming up - it was time to get something else. I put the S14 on eBay, and within a few days the car was sold.
Low on stockies, because it was easy.
Interior had lots of add-ons, was very mint, and very clean.
EDFC (original silver version 1) custom installed in the ashtray.
I also custom installed a pair of 10" JL Audio subwoofers into the rear side panels.
Dampachi hanging out on the shock tower.
Got a lot of thumb's up's for having triple gauges up on the windshield.
With the S14 gone, I was looking for something bigger, with three main requirements:
1. Must be a Japanese 2-door coupe
2. Must have something stronger than the KA24DE 2.4-liter engine in the 240SX
3. Must be RWD (of course)
I was looking at late model Z32's since at heart I'm a Nissan guy, but I couldn't find one in pristine condition that wasn't overpriced. Ditto for the FD3S. Ditto-squared for the Supra. Knowing that the Supra and the SC shared a lot underneath, I started looking at SC300 ads; however I knew that looking for a clean 5-speed would be tough. After about a month of searching for an SC that wasn't white or black and that didn't have a typical Vertex body kit (heh!) it didn't look too good. I started to get a little discouraged and a little disappointed, so much that I changed the search and looked at ALL SC ads - even automatic transmission-equipped 300's and 400's. But that decision was where luck came into play.

Raine, your car just takes the cake, it's beautiful. Props for the work, mate.
