Well I finally got all my problems fixed and it ran. Stupid me forgot a coolant hose so it kinda went everywhere. Put that back on and its started just fine.

My only question is that there is a very slight vibration and there is a pretty hefty rattle coming from the engine bay. But other than that it was running on its own idling and everything

 

do you have stock intake setup? my afm bounced a little with a cone filter until i wiried it up.

 

Sweet!

 

Completely stock set-up for now. I still need to check the timing and what not.

 

I have that rattle too. Check the aluminum cover on the bottom of your intercooler.

 

I don't have no stinkin intercooler. Although my next RX7 is going to have one.

 

the tension pulleys also have a tendency to rattle when they wear out
