She's Alive........

Yes, my car is back up and running. And I've been joy riding all day.

Here is a vid of her first steps yesterday on the new trans.


And here is a cold start from today before I took it for some fun.


And here is a small clip of the speedo while I was playing around today.


Enjoy!

Hell yah I drive on the street like that. And the SRS light is on because we took out the front seats and put in racing seats.

Dude, since I been driving the Navi all this time it scared me. Normally I would have kept going to 150-160. But I had to let off. And yes the TCU is still in there. New trans has to adapt to my style, I guess. It shifts a lot smoother than the broke one did. Lol. Acid huh? I got you. See you there.
