OK! So tomorrow is the big day, hopefully if things go well I can finish off the wiring and we can finish plumbing everything in. Sort the handbrake and get the clutch working properly.

Fingers crossed the ECU turns up, so might be able to turn the key for the first time!

Need to order some resistors soon to get the coolant gauge working properly and to delete all the stuff we've taken off.

:)

:cry:

Not this time. Starter motor turned on ignition but didn't seem to engage, then began to smoke after say 5 seconds of cranking. Took the starter motor off to check it worked using the same terminals and connections off the car wiring and it worked fine. So not sure what's up. 99% sure the flywheel and clutch are fitted correctly. Arghhhh!
