I don't know - I not so sure you can crank and fire a m30 ecu if it thinks it's a auto in a gear(Maybe you can if it thinks its in park or neutral). I know we had endless problems with(an auto engine harness) that until we said "f-this" and used my old m20(5-speed) harness on the motor. With that said, we also had a bad crank position sensor - so I can't confirm that.

What I can confirm is the PO of this engine had a auto to 5spd swap and the necessary measures where put into place in order that the ecu/wire harness was to recognize it as a manual transmission car. (There's a 12v constant jump that needed to be done, this was done previously)
The abundance of C101 plugs is disconcerting, as with a few "extra" wires/plugs that are complicating this.
I don't have the option of getting a m20 b25 harness or m30 b35 unless one pops up in the pnp...and that's rare

I've got a lead on a m20 harness. From my research fits nicer than b35 and with only marginal mods (lengthen 2 wires)
Plus...this happened all female plugs

I don't know about the bike itself, but that kickstand is a classic piece. Those and my Gramma's toaster, they made the same sound. And you have more perfect lawn in the picture than I have on my entire lot.
Now, ahem, E30-ville and your pictures: Just because I'm paranoid, I always sling a wheel or two under a car on jackstands so that if it falls off the stands it has something to land on other than my breathing apparatus. I generally use the spare to lighten the load, and I have somebody check on me periodically too.
May the shift linkage treat you kindly,

That's how my verts looked for the last year and a half. Today I finally got it back on all four tires today. Nothing like a big six vert on a warm summer night.Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. -Mark TwainComment
