Is the "central air duct outlet" the one bolted to the heater box or the thinner one that connects the dash to the heater box?

Item 50 in the FSM illustration (exhausts through the rotating chrome grille, Item 80). Cutting and then gluing the foam pieces around the duct's inside surfaces is finicky work.  I can only assume that Nissan decided the benefit outweighed the additional manufacturing cost.  You need to use open-cell foam for this location.

Perfect, thanks

So I got the headliner trim in

Gonna have to pick up the pace to be ready for Zcon 2024

Momma is starting to crack the whip

So there was a thread about vent lines in the not too distant past. The OP had found braided vent lines somewhere (VW site maybe?) spec'd out the lengths etc. I have tried to find it. Anyone remember that thread?

On another note is the search feature on the forum working? I always get zero results...

So I worked on the radiator support some this week

My grill brackets were either bent or broken off. So I took some off a parts car a while back. Marked around them with tape because the spot welds are in different places between the parts and the weld through primer would erase the pencil layout.

Then I seam sealed around them. Taped the car up and sprayed it black. Then I primed and blacked my air dam support and welded it on today

Trying to clean the rocker vinyl pieces up. I may have to vinyl black them to make them look right

I haven't seen these available any where new ?

Many different sizes are available from Belmetric. https://belmetric.com/hose/gasoline/

Working on the fuel and vent tanks some more. I believe my fuel sender is bad so I ordered a cheap one off Ebay. We'll see how it looks. I bought a bunch of braided hose for the vent system but I let Cody use some of it for his car and now I don't appear to have enough. Trying to sort that out

Where does the upper port on the left hand side (maybe 8mm hose) of the vapor tank go?? Does it just go through the floor and vent to the outside? Or does it connect to the vent line that goes to the front of the car? I think I know where the other lines go. I am looking for springs to work on the one molded hose. I may try to heat that in the oven to thermoset it...

On the diagrams I have seen it seems to go through the floor and vent but if it connects to the vapor line to front of the car, it isn't shown right...

That's good. I have an account with them so I can get that coming. They are pretty prompt about shipping...

Never mind, they are out of stock of the 8mm and 10mm braided
