Were you able to keep the factory crossmember or was it modified? How was exhaust manifold clearance, especially on the driver side?

You didn't mention the fact it was the later bodystyle car. That makes it even cooler. Good work.

S14/S13= greek to me
I just figured he'd used the 89-94 body since they are more comminly available for dirt cheap. Like I say, the fact it's a 95-up makes it that much cooler.

5 inches!!! How much ground clearance does it have? That must hang pretty low.

I'm just glad to see someone else do this swap, hopefully this will become a common swap.
