Whats your ride?

If its an s14a, there,s a hole (with a grommet in) just behind the plennum chamber that comes out just above and to the left of the clutch pedal

s14 i don't understand the s14/s14a is it just a case of one had a revamp?

I couldn't get the gromet out, i can't get my hands there easily, i'll try again whens its not dark.

i know it will all be worth it in the long run, big, pure, sounds!

Yep, that hole mentioned by Marcos will accomodate a 4 gauge power cable - which is good for upto 1KW of amp power.
Make sure you use a gromet, as the hole's edge is quite sharp, and will probably cut thru the wire after a while.

They're basically the same car except the s14a has a revised exhaust manifold, rear lights and a seriously mean nose!

(have I missed anything?)
