Well.. GG RX-7.
It's alive!

Friday when I got home I turned the OMP function on the ecu off and it revved properly. After that I fixed a small oil leak (loose fitting.. Whoops) and bled the brakes. Finished everything at like 11:30 and took it for a few laps around the block and everything seemed to be in check. Then as I was putting it away my faggy neighbour came and bitched cause he's a faggot.

Saturday, loaded the bumper in the car (JUST) fit to take to a friends shop for a slight mod in order to make it fit. Did that and it looks super sweet. (No pics cause I didn't have any time). It's still super dusty though cause it hasn't been washed in 2 years LOL.

Then Sunday morning I woke up to get back to m place in time for Father's Day brunch and on the highway it started to cut out so I pulled over.. Defs out of gas. LOL. In my defence the fuel gauge isn't plugged in. Ah well. So a friends came and rescued me, but not before I had the chance to go check some stuff out and fuck up the fuel pump wiring. So now I am on the side of the highway out of gas and my fuel pump doesn't have power. So I toocm the power wire of my boost controller which I made really long for some reason and used a key to saw off a section and just hot wired the pump directly to the battery. Great! Now everything is working again.

Until I get about a block away from my house, the coolant buzzer goes off so I quickly pull over and kill it. Pop the hood.. Yeah blew off a rad hose. LOLOL. So I just pushed it the rest of the way back and parked it in the garage cause I didn't really feel like doing anything else that day.

But anyways, 2 easy fixes, main point is that the car is on the road! Quick oil change and coolant fill and I guess fuel pump rewire and I'll be good to FSU on Friday night again.
