3/25/04 - Finished breaking in the SPEC Stage 3 clutch (500 miles, odometer: 121,967).
3/21/04 - Installed Autometer Phantom boost gauge, adjusted the timing and went for my very 1st ride with the completed swap (odometer: 121,429). Just need to work a few minor bugs like the cooling fans fuse and boost gauge readings.
3/20/04 - 2nd day attempt at starting the SR, after hooking up better cranking battery (OPTIMA Yellow Top) abd several cranks for 10 minutes, the car finally started up. Idle was a little rough, I believe timing needs to be reset. Decided to stop working on the car until I pick up a timing gun.
3/19/04 - After waiting a month, Yury at Heavy Throttle sends back my rewired S13 SR > S14 harness. 1st day attempt at starting the SR, no luck, realized fuel lines were backwards, and then had to stop for the day due to lack of time and dying battery.
