Just got back from the victory lap, which consisted of twice around the block where I tossed a 17mm socket and a 1/2" to 3/8" converter and then a trip to 7-11 to buy a double gulp (64 oz), damnit forgot the cherry I was so excited, and a jar of iciing. I left the lights on there and was almost screwed. Got home, very bouncy, damn suspension, haha, but everything is good. The tach quit on my partway through, I think the connection got bumped out from extreme sucky suspension.
Anyway, updated list:
(Wire) VSS
(Wire) Cluster plugs
(Buy) Rear mount, tranny portion
(Buy) Misc. shift linkage bolts
(Buy) New shift linkage pin, from Honda
(Do) Figure out what to do with the transmission cooler stuff
(Wire) Reverse lights
(Fix) Vacuum leak, I guess we unplugged something
(Fix) Riding on the dust covers,
Because of the dust covers I couldn't tell much about the ride, but here's why I almost had a heart attack:
Couldn't get it in gear, it was tough to figure out where to set the clutch cable, ain't perfect, but fine tuning goes after fine working,
Then I forgot and left the e-brake on and couldn't get it going, thought I messed up the clutch install. Then the socket stuff feel out the back. Then left the lights on and watched them dim greatly as the car struggled to life. Then the bouncing on the way home and no tach or vss was scary.
But still,
for the first time in a while.
