Map Ecu2 is wired and mounted. The shifter plate is done- I just used some nasty scrap that I had laying around, fipg'ed it and bolted it in. I'm kinda putting off doing the shifter's cover plate because it's a little more complicated- lots of flush-mount rivets and junk. 
Do I just cut the wires for the airbag to get the new wheel in? Do I need to resistor anything? I don't really care about an airbag light- just that it's done correctly.

I put a pic up on my FB-me chillin in the tranny tunnel putting in the flywheel bolts. Someone pointed out that I had a problem- look at the pic and see if you can figure out what was f'ed up. 
It set me back a bit. And I took this pic of the tranny as soon as it came off the pallet. I'm soooo excited! I love it!

a ton of work, very painful & good luck
I drove 2 FDs in college was on the rx7club as snook and surgemonster, my roomate a tt supra. both moved to vettes now. Just picked up the sc and cleaning it up in and out perfect before I move on to turbo, but its right around the corner.
I see a lot of people switch to a ijz or 2gte when they want turbo instead of na-t, I guess if its so extreme and you are changing everything around the engine like you did theres no bother switching to a turbo block besides the oil squirters and some other details?
