<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Stewi)</div><div class='quotemain'>Ok, this problem has totally gone too far. I have decided to take all the mitsu shit electronics out of the equation. I am converting the car over to a push button engine start. This way I dont need to rely on any of the stock components, or continue to troubleshoot this problem that has already cost way more money then it needed to. I will have my push start kit on friday...</div>
what kit are you using?

Ignited Performance. I hear its the best one. Im just using their switch, I am making my own harness and relay setup for it. The way most people wire it makes it easy to steal the car, not mine. I got a few theft deterent tricks up my sleeve.

[Stewi]

I installed the switch, made an ignition harness and intalled an inline fuse and relay, i called it a night for now, i'll give it another shot tomorrow. All I need to do is put everything back that I took apart, the lower half of my dash, center console, battery, tray, and intercooler pipe.

im gonna be the first one to congratulate you on starting her up! post a video up asap!!

[Stewi]

Thats right, she is running ! ! Started up on the first try, no major problems, small vacuum leak and that fuel leak is starting again, except very very slowly, like the motor has to run for 15 mins before you can even tell its leaking. Here is the initialy startup video for now, more to come, i gotta put the hood on, hookup the heads and tail and get wheels on it so i can drive it around this week.

You wont see any "getting on it" or dyno vids until after April 7th, thats the day im Dyno'ing it, and im not going to drive it hard until its tuned and working 100%

[DOHCstunr]

looks fnatastic!

sounds like you have a few little misses.


are you using tape on your flare fittings?
i never teflon tape on those.
i have used just liquid felon tape on the threads of the flare fittings, but very little, and only on the outermost threads. flare/ An fittings are machined so that they will seal without tape, unlike npt.
but i'm sure you knew that.


i;ve got a small coolant leak at my wter pump to water pipe o ring from where i had to dent my pipe to clear my enourmous compressor cover, i need to get on that,

glad to see her running again.

its such an awesome feeling to literally put weeks of actual labor hours into a car cross your fingers, and hope you did everything perfect. Truly undescribable.

[Jet Black]

Stewi, you've just created sex on wheels.

Congrats man.

Those misses are the 2 step rev limiter, the standalone was trying to pull timing because the car wasnt moving and i was at 4k. I need to disable it...

[SkylineG1]

Congrats Stewi!!!! Hopefully I can see it if you attend the next meet.

[GOOSEY2099]

CONGRADS!!! Its about time after all that hard work

[lonestar22]

hawt

[Stewi]

OK, so the fuel leak is figured out. I got a bad AN fitting. Im gonna take it to the hose place tomorrow and get it re-done.

[seth98esT]

Cool man. Installing AN fittings on AN hose isnt bad as long as the hose is at least -6AN or bigger and you have a vice. But doing my -4AN line was a pain, Id rather have a hydrolic shop do those, I always had leaks on my old line.

[Evofreak7]

nice congrats dude.
