    Okay okay. Those 2 I do remember.

    So if those 2 are switched the car will turn over but won't start?

      You wont get spark if they are switched since the crank position sensor will not send a signal to the ECU and the ECU will not know to discharge the ignition coil.

              What was the issue? were the connectors mixed up?

                  Yup, there are 3 connectors, 2 are black, one is grey, I figured the grey one went to the thing that plugs into the intake, but it doesn't, so that was why it didn't fire up. But it fired up yesterday, doing a vinegar clense on the motor with water to get all the build up out, flushing the system a few times, then gunna get it filled with coolant!

                                  I can't wait to devote a good week to sanding, wet sanding and polishing to fixing the fuck ups in these wheels. #yay

                                    It may take the whole weekend to strip the clearcoat off of one wheel:P lol That is some gnarly clearcoat that they used.

                                        well, half the clear coat is gone/chipped so it shouldn't take THAT long.
