well, ran the car down the road today. it was ok, really needs to be tuned. solved the problem with it starting on the ground. seems commanda was right, a voltage problem. somehow when the car was in the air the engine was grounded, but when the car was on the ground whatever it was that was grounding the engine came off or whatnot. went and bought a grounding strap and the car started right up like a champ, 2 new problems. my oil cooler leaks like its paid to do so, and my radiator cap on the 2nd gen water pump leaks as well.



besides that the car runs, i'm very pleased.



ok, anyone know where i can find a GSL-SE oil-cooler for like $10? and a 2nd gen radiator cap...

what radiator are you running? If you have a FB rad, you can block off the water pump cap. You don't need 2 caps.
