I think I have found my coolant leak without taking the LIM off. BUT now I have either a wiring, CPU or factory alarm issue. Everytime I start the car my driver door sensor triggers my horn and flashes my lights. They don't pop up but the do light up. After the engine has been running, if I close the door the lights flash once and the horn blows.

I also seem to have the oil leak taken care of. But I'm using used hoses so I'll be keeping an eye on them.

Gonna pull the CPU off my old vert and see if I can swap them. My concern is that the old vert is an 89, the new one is a 90 with airbag. Hopefully there are no differences in the CPUs. I'll check part numbers soon as I have them both out. But I've also got some reading to do. I remember people having issues with the CPU and OEM alarm and it has to do with having to resolder...I can't remember the rest of it.

I've also been able to tighten up some of the exhaust bolts. I was able to get all the bolts from turbo to manifold. I could get the bottom bolts on the manifold to engine. Could not get to the top bolts on the manifold. My plan all along has been to take the car to an exhaust shop and have them hang the exhaust properly. My RB exhaust has the typical driver side tip being lower than the passenger side. While doing that I"ll ask them to tighten the suspect areas down better.

The engine is not idling as smoothly. But I haven't done anything with the CAS or TPS. I started testing the TPS by memory of the process. It might be bad... if my memory serves me correct.
