got my coupe running...well sort of(update)

well here's an update,

the new motor is in and fired up today with the first turn of the key. no smoke or leaks . now on to the bad news as we all know things dont go according to plan, when installing the driveshaft bracket the nut thats welded to the car broke loose so all the bolt would do is spin so we are fixing it by just welding the damn bracket in. also the clutch pedal had no pressure so we went to bleed the clutch lines and broke off the bleeder so i went and bought a new slave and put it in and went to bleeding the lines and still nothing. so as of right now the car has a running motor but cant drive it.

That's lame. Hope everything gets sorted out soon.

ha, ive owned my car since sep. of 2007 and have never driven it unless my buddies were pushing me

after doing some thinking im wondering if i should just buy a one pice driveshaft so i dont have to worry about that little carrage bracket thing, whats you guys take on that? anyone have a one piece and can say if they feel like there is any power gain from the lighter weight and less rotational mass.

i vouch for 1 piece bro...i used one in the past couple of s14's i owned and it really seemed to help the tires turn over. I had a driveshaft shop make one for 80 bucks.
