where's your Zex NMU ?
like the title says-- where's your Zex NMU mounted? got pics?
I've had my system since before I got the car (woo hoo, not even 45 days yet, still on the paper tag!)
and I keep putting off the install because I can't decide where to put the box.

GOT IT!
made an angle bracket that bolts to the "shelf" under the driver side headlight, right next to the ground lug. Box sits on the side of the "frame" rail, above the radiator hose, just behind the ground cable, inboard of the headlight. worked great!

next hurdle is nozzle / lines. Car came with ZZP throttle body spacer, and the nitrous system came with a Harris Speed Works Black Mamba nozzle. When I put the HSW nozzle in it points right at the core support. I don't like how tight the lines have to curve to miss, or they rub otherwise, so I bought -3an right angle adapters, which will make the lines clear the support no prob, but the flare nuts are bigger, I can't put them on the HSW nozzle! So, now I have to order a nozzle that the fittings will install on!
what a PAIN IN THE ASS!

UPDATE:
got Nitrous Outlet nozzle, fits great! picture show a comparison of the Nitrous Outlet and HSW nozzle. You can see how much closer together the pill holders are on the HSW, and how the 90's have bigger nuts, so they don't fit the HSW.
the 24" feed lines I already have to go from the box to the nozzle will work, or I can get
14"-15" lines with a 90 on one end for a REALLY clean install.
next thing is the line from the FPSS to the fuel rail

ordered OTTP fuel rail fitting, adapter, and hoses with 90's. Trying to decide now how I want to set up purge
UPDATE: here is all of the above assembled, ready to install on the fuel rail, with the Autometer fuel pressure sender

well, it's been SLOOOOOOW going on this project, but as of now all the wiring is in. So far everything tested is working,(car's not back running yet, so not FULLY tested) just need to go back and loom up/detail the wiring, and finish the purge.
so, I thought I'd post the wiring diagram of how I did everything, might make somebody else's job easier later.
