Talking Started my car today!!

I finished connecting everything from my engine swap today. I turned it on with only the header connected and man was is loud!! Reminded me of the 787b car I saw at sevenstock hehe. I revved the engine up a bit (to like 3k) and it was really loud! That made my day haha. I still have a grin on my face and that was like 10 minutes ago. Neighbors were looking out their windows too.

I just had to share this with everyone! Im really excited that everything works so far. This was my first engine swap ever! I have very little experience with cars but Im not scared to pick up a wrench. Feels good when you do something yourself.

The engine is stock. I crashed my SE (the one in my sig) and I bought a GXL for $250. I figured that putting my engine into it will be cheaper than fixing my car, upgrading the brakes and getting lsd for it. The damage to the SE isnt that bad, but I felt that the GXL was a better way to go. The SE is for sale.

Thats a photoshoped version of me in the avatar.
