im not making any promises but im thinking we will get it running tonight now that im done with the carny life
This fast yet?
Who cares if it’s fast or not, the faster it is the less traction and more torque steer lol.
Hmm…Well if those are your thoughts, then why pick an inferior platform?
Because in 2 years I’m buying another brand new car so why not work with what I have.
with that thought process, why waste money on a civic if you plan to get an st anyway?
Solid points
Why is everyone bitching?
He likes working on cars and modding them as a hobby.
JT’s car sat in the garage most of the year because it never ran right and now its up for sale…
Because it was on 7 cylinders lol… my own mistake. First time i built a car from the ground up, shit happens. And everything is always for sale.
Carry on.
Regardless people make all kinds of cars fast at least this isn’t some VW.
Sanded down the grounds and no go on firing, now I’m not getting spark. Changed out the igniter on the coil and still no spark. Tried the main relay still no priming of the pump. Traced to the floor wiring harness and the ground for the fuel pump was shot made a new one still nothing, I’m shooting blanks every time. Anyone is welcome to help me or point me in the right direction I’d appreciate it.

I was thinking about it to be honest, I was wondering what you kno about the car like who did the gsr swap etc and stuff like that. It’s like a never ending battle lol
I really need all the help I can get, I have researched the piss out of this and the treads suck and just randomly end. If anyone can help it would be appreciated, a real big thanks to nick, and deni and Steve for the most help and really putting the effort into this car.
The swap was done by carnut (don) a long time ago. That really would have nothing to do with this set up, as it’s a completely different drivetrain
That car was quick and really reliable when beast had it
I understand that the setup is different, just curious if there was anything that he changed other then in the bay.
I’m basically lost on how the fuel pump won’t prime, if I can get it to prime then I’m in the home stretch of it to be running.
Have you checked for power at the pump?

I rather have a nice VW for a dd over this or his new ford pos he bought any day. You can’t compare the interiors nor quality of car.
are you still trying everything you can WITHOUT trying a different ECU??? I still see no mention of borrowing/trying a different ecu.
has the ECU that’s in the car been messed with/modified at all?
no offense but this is the absolute worst “build thread” I’ve ever seen. 3 pages and absolutely nothing has been accomplished since you aquired the car.
