It Started!!

Well,
Took me a day to troubleshoot (turns out I had a bad main relay), but it STARTED this evening.

Thanks to everyone who answered my questions over the last few months...Now I just need to clean up wiring, buy suspension/wheels, buy seats/steering wheel, install drive shaft/shifter, have exhaust done, get a windshield (doh..turns out they don't like being pried....), etc...man its never gonna end :) Nothing like a running engine to motivate though! Need to resist looking for an s50 now that I know the rest of the setup works...

Sounds like a freakin beast...Video here Yes Im using a screwdriver to start it (dont ask)...Anyone know which wires i need to use to wire in an 'on' toggle and a 'ignition' momentary switch?

Awesome indeed! After a year and a half it was one of the best feeling when mine started up.
