CDeutsch - Yes, Speedholes and I swapped the tranny(the car comes with the stock tranny too, (if you buy the car) i suggest sending that one into shep to be rebuilt(it needs a new first gear)), but in my incomplete explination, The Problem started before the engine removal and tranny swap began (a fuel rail bolt was broken off in the head and we found another couple bolts broken off in the block, so we took the whole engine into a local shop to have the bolts professionally removed, and have the engine cleaned+checked for leaks) Everything was reinstalled and double-checked, still the car behaved the same

So, in summary, the problem started, then we completely removed the engine, put it back, and it still was randomly acting up.

niterydr - $80.75/hr seams fair, in all reality im willing to pay up to $500 to make the thing work again, so that would be almost 7 hours of your time, i WOULD HOPE you could figuire out just about anything in 7 hours. And one more thing, please excuse my n00b-ness, but where is "bring it here"? Elite? when can i give you guys a call and set up an apointment?

Jakey - No, I was hoping to get at least $3k for my setup, which is fair (the car comes with alot) but there is no way in hell that im gonna be able to sell the car for even half that if the car barely runs.....so, no, i have not been trying to sell it anywhere. I like the car, I want to get it to work, but with 2x jobs and 13 credits of college courses this semister, I just need a working car.

What sold me on the car when i bought it was how FAAAAAAAAST it was, seriously, this baby kicked back when it was "new" to me, and that was with smaller injectors and stock FMIC, now, properly tuned (and with a JETs custom exhaust, which i will reward my car with as soon as its proven worthy) this baby should knock the socks off just about anything (in my class).

PS, the guy who sold me the car claimed, that when launched properly, and with water sprayers on the IC(which i removed when upgrading ICs), the car ran a 12.7, the car also has a ACT2600 w/6 puck racing clutch, we broke an axle off in the 3 bolt recently (ovbiously, when the car was acting properly) so the car has a gently used 3 bolt out of a talon in it now....

The car currently has a 2.5 inch exhaust, which needs replacing, an egt, a 2g exhaust mani, winter tires on the stock rims, and summer tires on the bbs knockoff rims, for the stereo it has a kameleon (ipod adapter+charger unit installed, not the silly tape adapter) deck with kenwood speakers all around, joeP MBC, AF+Boost+EGT gauges

Any more questions, feel free to ask, and im sorry if I have not been clear on something, forgive my lack of being able to think+type at the same time
