I also got ambitious and decided to extend my lower control arms. the last event i was having real bad outer shoulder wear so i thought that maybe if i extended my lower control arms i would get more camber so at full lock i would have a better contact patch.But when i extended my lower arms i opened a whole new can of worms, since instantly my greater camber was causing serious rubbing issues on my fender wiring harnesses so i had to take the whole dash out and reroute the fuse boxes into the car. This is actually easy and can be done with out cutting any part of the harness, you can do it with radiator and engine still in the car. start on the passenger side by where the ecu is mounted, and remove the three white plugs that are connected to the harness that comes from the passenger wheel well.you will need to unbolt you ecu and move it to access these plugs, then go outside by the passenger wheel and pull the harness out from inside the car. Then start disconnecting the main fuse box wires, then start pulling that box out and follow the wires removing the headlights, turn signals, light motors, and horn wires if you have them. then unbolt the radiator brackets and pull the radiator back a little and pull the wiring from off of the upper core support. then you get to the drivers side fuse box, you shouldn't have much of anything actually plugged in there. then stop there and go to inside the drivers side of the car and get a 10 mm and unbolt the fuse panel and resistors that are bolted in. then disconnect all the wires attached to you steering column then pull those all out so they just sit on the drivers floor. mind you the dash must be out. then this is the hardest parts cause you need to move around a lot of thick harnesses and you should see the light in the hole in the fender where the harness comes through then have some one go on the outside by the drivers wheel well and pull lightly while you feed it from the inside and it will all fit right through the hole in your fender with out any modifications just be aware that there is some sound deadening that you need to break away to enlarge the hole and the harness will come right out with no cutting. then the rest is obvious just reconnect and you have to extend you headlights, turn signals and brake master cylinder wires since obviously all the plugs are now in the car. you will also need to extend you lower harness and some other wires and from the harness. but just take it slow and do one group of wires at a time. sorry if thats all a little jumbled or miss punctuated.
the other thing i did not realize was i would have to get longer tie rods since i extended the lower arms 35mm so i had to order the max inner tie rods since they are 20mm longer then stock s14 ones.
Tie rod looks a little bent but its only cause of the wide angle lens.
