If I can put a few hundred more miles on it, I'll be happy. But so far so good.

Still enjoying this setup 
Also big storm rolling in, going for more test drive miles if back alows.
White trash is running good for 300 miles. I'ma call this fixed.
Not gonna lie - every time I saw this thread pop to the top of "latest topics" I was worried that the problem was back! That's a pretty weird way for an ECU to die, but at least you've freshened up everything else along the way!

That is true, I have been sorta dreading driving it. Last 300 miles has been watching wideband and gauges and torque pro like a hawk.
Honestly fustrated the ECU took a dump, but guess I can now take it to the Dyno for Dyno tune action.
Getting close to being happy with the engine bay. Little more cleaning up to do . Car sounds amazing. 
Cleaned up more wiring and out terminal end on neg clamp. Changed oil, need to pcv sustem and put in and charge ac bits and engine bay is done 
Confession: I've sat here and replayed that exhaust sound clip a bunch of times and it hasn't gotten any less enjoyable :)
PO replaced everything, except the wheel cylinders and parking brake cables
Brakes done, other side of brakes has a new wheel cylinder, and a quick bleed fixed it.
Front end re assembled with new lights and bulbs.
Test drove around 30 miles over the weekend.
Mounted the vaccum block up nice and also cleaned up vac hoses some more. Also verified overboost protection works.
Rebuilt all the window regulators, that's the most time consuming and fustrating job I have ever done.
Junk junk junk junk junk
Thankfully the other light iris car has a home.
Which light iris car? The restored, or the new?

New
5 oil changes done last night, 5 oil samples sent out.
Working the ol iris car today. 
Spent the evening with the omni since it decided it wanted to start loading up on fuel at idle.
Not sure what's going on, but it's fustrating. I does the same thing no matter the logic module. Fuel pressure was within spec. No vaccum leaks we can find
Replaced a dead summit brand electric fuel pump for a ford unit. Charged the battery, replaced all 3 fuel filters and took it on a 30 mile drive . as much as I like it, it's coming up on time for this car to move to it's next home.
Super charger for the win. Top 5 favorite tools
Dizzy locked up, broke Intermediate shaft. Replaced the shaft cover bearing and dizzy. Car ran like a champ. Made boost nice and then pickup took a E36 M3.
Took a absolutely filthy white trash to run some errands and get dinner. Running good, loosing a little coolant somewhere, but just need to do some testing.
Went to pickup the only new pickup for the omni and opened the box and it was used and damage..... 2nd used part from the part store this week.
Timing is 100% correct, still loading up, bench tested every sensor that can be, known good of the ones that can't be tested.
So ohmed out and ran power through every wire to make sure we had zero broken wires and still loading up and miss firing.
Plugs fresh, good fuel pressure, compression and leakdown are perfect, cooling system has been pressurized and let set for days with no leak.
I ordered a new power module and have a logic module out of a known good driving car on the way.
Oil changes and checking coolant and lights today. Brake light switch and headlight was out of white trash.
.found black rt had a almost ruptured brake hose
