Z31 Project back on track.

I have finally paid for all of the engine repairs for my dammed Z31, but there are a few issues with it still.

First, occasionally whn i start it, it bogs out, especially when accelerator is pressed. I have to gradually let out the clutch until it gets rolling about 10 KMPH, then i more or less floor it, and it bogs, then runs great.... dunno wtf... perhaps it was sitting too long (3-4 months?) I ordered a new fuel rail and injectors... should be here soon

Idles High at 1400 RPM but i think my Throttle cable needs adjusting.

MAJOR cooling issues. It overheats within 5 - 10 minutes of running. but the rad doesn't boil over. At first i thought Thermostat but thats hard to get to....

Also, the shop i took it to said that there are a craptacular amounts of vaccume lines and open ended wires. good 5 hours work he says.... dont know if i trust him tho.

The only other problem i have is that my dash lights wont turn on with the headlights. possibly bypass everything and just use a switch?

Ill start posting pics n stuff of it, along with plans. I just started a new job, i make about 200 bux a night playing video games, sleeping, or whatever, 4 nights a week, so ill have alot of money to put into it.


EDIT: i know i spelled it Proecy... wont let me fix..... I feel uneducated now
