So as you know, the car wouldn't start after I re-did the wiring.

I was pretty sure it was the cps so I ordered a new one and installed it today with high hopes. Needless to say I was let down. After that disappointment I thought the only other logical thing to do was to see if the fuel pump even worked. Hot wired the fuel pump and it started right up. Now I knew it was the relay so I ran to autozone and grabbed a temporary relay. Installed it and she ran perfect.

At that point it was to test out this new air suspension and drive the crap out of it. And that I did.

Took a couple photos along the way with plenty more to come.

Well, I finished the car in time for sowo exactly 5 hours before we had to leave. I was pretty nervous driving down without having any time to break her on but she ran fine and I made it there and back without any problems.

I had to wet sand and buff the hood, finish my trunk set up, paint the fog light delete covers and brake ducts, install rear window lock strip, and get my fan working. I ordered the sensor that goes on the radiator for the fan over a week before I left and for some reason it never came in so I had to wire a manual switch for the fan. No big deal but it was quite frustrating when parts are over 5 days late.

Don't really have any "build" pictures but here is the finished product for now.

Wow that is stunning

Sorry for the lack of updates. I honestly haven't done anything else to the car I've just been driving around and enjoying it. I've also been working on something really big that I will give you guys an update about later this week.

In the meantime, here is another pic.
