Finally, it runs!
After fighting the junk aftermarket security system since I bought my Laser in the summer of 2004 and getting to the point where since ~November I absolutely could not get the system to disengage and allow me to start my car, I spent 5 hours last week ripping the damn thing out. Thankfully, upon getting everything put back together, my car fired right up. Unfortunately, somehow I managed to f*ck up my turn signals and they no longer work so that's next on the list of things to address.

Re: Finally, it runs!
That seems like a lot of crap for an alarm.

Re: Finally, it runs!
Check the relay wires at the relay for the turn signals I know they wire them in to them.

Yes there was a lot of crap. That picture doesn't include the horn/speaker that was under the hood too.

Re: Finally, it runs!
Now I can finally take the time to install the parts I have laying around, some of which I've been meaning to install for over a year:
Stewart Warner gauge pod, boost gauge, & EGT gauge
TRE EGT probe (using the custom Old Man Hill install location)
Elite MBC
2G exhaust manifold
Injen intake (once I get my Amosil/Donaldson Ea filter ordered--> Info )
2G MAS
EPROM ECU (once I have a chance to send it to Steve Piette, http://simon.chi.il.us/ECU/Index.html)
Full exhaust & O2 housing (once JET gets it done)

Re: Finally, it runs!
Sweet, glad to hear that it runs.... that really is one crazy alarm.
Now you need to post up some pics of the car.

Me too minus the EGT anyways. I have all these parts but no time to put them on since the car is in a different city.  Lucky bastards with their garages or even driveways.
BTW, do they make one of those filters for the 2g mas? I didnt see one listed. |

Refil the blinker fluid, it probably drained itself while the car was sitting for so long.  |

It's nothing pretty, plenty of dings and rust, but it's a work in progress.

Same situation as me, my car is 180 miles away. I'm looking forward to moving to my new place in July as it has a garage, yard, and plenty of places to put parts so I can finally bring my car to school.

Not that I know of but I picked up a cone filter adaptor for a 2G MAS from James (slowbubblecar) so I'll be using that. Everything I have seen about these Amsoil/Donaldson filters shows that they put K&Ns to shame.

Trust me, spend the money the first time, it's worth the wait.
