Added a fuel pump failsafe that bypasses the ECU and fuel pump relay. If for any reason the fuel relay fails to turn on (like my car likes to do for various reasons), I can disconnect the relay and turn this big boy 250 amp switch on and limp it home. The two circuits are wired in parallel.
Next on the list is to upgrade the 40 amp relay currently in there to a 75 amp relay.
Well yesterday I washed and cleaned up the car while we had one day of no rain, drove it around and enjoyed the fruits of my labor. Went to a bonfire and left to head home and got to drive the entire way back with every bug and moth aimed at my windshield!!! All that work, gone!
Managed to fit 150 bucks worth of grocery in the trunk...feels weird using the car every day!

Washed for the first time in months (she's garaged so no need to wash her regularly)

So far I put the last fender back on, brake booster, SMIC's, put in my STM ABS Delete kit, and will be adding more as the day dies away, I'm very motivated now
