Kobe - Mines is a UK spec car but I am pretty sure that the immobiliser is cut from the ECU but I have afeeling that one of the wires has to be grounded.
Surely the ecu has a ground, or the instructions should mention that one needs to be attached. I've tried search and come up blank

The ECU is a reworked stock ECU like the Mugen - I am hoping the guys in the states can help with this.

I just tried starting the car again but this time pushed the accelerator a tiny bit - the car started for all of 2 seconds and then died.

I did try that but it just wouldn't start - I don't want to kill the battery either.

I'm gonna sit tight and wait for Brian to PM me.

I know Ade but I have vowed to use it a lot more now. It's a bit of a waste sitting in the garage all the time.

You all will see AB out and about a lot more!!!!! Enough is enough now.
