btw, the axels were a complete mess to get right, the driver side had to be made from two different year models to get the lengths right, I had it custom fabricated by advance auto.

I didn't put the engine in, I had a local mechanic pull out the old one, replace the wiring harness/computer and put the new engine/tranny in, I installed the clutch pedal and the shifter and the axels, and everything else..
it was a real mess to be honest, it took me 7 months to finish and have it drivable again, but I love it and want to finish it completely
it's not uncommon for cars to be labelled wrong at the JY. there's a 89-91 max that i got a spoiler from at my JY that's labelled as a 96 Maxima, and a Q45 labelled as an "altima". so you have to trust your knowledge of the car, not the JY employees' "knowledge".
