That flange is for the isc (idle speed control) not the cold start injector normally the 7m ffim do not use cold star injectors. You can do without the csi I have for who knows how long and never had any issues.

Thanks. We figured that out and ditched the cold start. The car has been started since.
Still a lot mechanically to do. Top of the list are:
Coolant lines
Brake lines
Exhaust
Rear
Alternator wiring
O2 sensor wiring
Will update with pics soon.

Its looking very good. What is the cars purpose street strip or strictly strip? Where do you get the loom for the harness? Not to put more on your plate but you also may want to consider running 1nzfe coil packs it will clean up the top of the motor. Although there is nothing wrong with the stock ones its just for cleaning purposes only.

The purpose is mostly street and the occasional strip. I will definitely consider the 1NFZE coil packs and look into how its wired. The loom I got from ebay. Do a search for "nylon braided flexible sleeving." They come in a variety of sizes and also get "heat shrink tubing" in a variety pack.
Great! Hope you do soon.BOBLOOK wrote:Very nice update bro inspire me to start one day working on my car again
