$300? wow. The cheapest legit z6 swap I can ever find is maybe $500. Even a z6 head and intake manifold go for over $150. It's ridiculous over here.

I have 3 things that I know I have to do yet.
1. CEL #6 Coolant temp sensor.
-I'm going to test if it's the sensor or the wiring.
-I'm also hoping that it's the only reason it starts hard as w/o the sensor the pulse width of the fuel injectors will be off and it will run very rich.

2. Bleed the Clutch.
-Somehow fluid disappeared. I hope I didn't cut the line...

3. Swap ECU's back to a stock p28



Here's a fun video of the bed of the truck that I've been borrowing. It's almost completely independent from the frame...

The Y8 trans is pending today, but we'll see if he actually buys it.
