glad to see you guys got it all together. I'm working on the proper resistor for the temp gauge and hopefully tomorrow, we figure out the starting problem with the auto swas into manual cars.


think:clutch switch

Peter, I dont think its the clutch switch. When I hooked my remote start back up (which bypasses the clutch switch), it would try and start the car but it couldnt.

Oh, and I had major issues trying to remove this driveshaft for you. In the accident some of the body got moved a little bit I am assuming, because when removing the bolts holding the driveshaft up in the middle, I could only get one down about halfway before it hit the car and wouldnt budge any more.

Sorry, I uploaded them all at the same time.

And 3rd was spinning, as soon as full boost hit, rpms shot to redline and i started drifting into the left lane. My passenger nearly **** himself when we had no traction and began sliding into the next lane, especially on the 2nd run when we hit the change in highway materials, it caught and the car shimmied back and forth 2 or 3 times, got a bit hairy, nothing to crazy tho. I tried to tell you guys that if if was at all damp out I was going to spin even at 60. Even if its dry, it doesnt catch until around 60 mph/3rd gear

fwd, open diff and bald 215s dont cut it.
