sweet! I have mine in its just being held up by all the details. I got power windows to put in, 99 dash to secure (already in place), seats to recover (already assembled) and all the while the high voltage battery in the insight went out so i'm rebuilding the battery while i wait for my new "betterbattery" from ron @ hybrid-battery-repair. Also I'm learning to fly choppers so things are pretty busy. Awesome to hear of another success. Mine came with the 5speed so the iac wiring should already be correct. Yours sounds really great, low growl, do you have a decent muffler/exhaust on there? I'm thinking about doing the seats in military drab olive canvas. You sure that surging isn't the timing belt? I don't really know other than all the hondas/mazdas i've had tend to start doing that around the time the timing belt should be changed. What do you do in the navy? my dad and grandfather were both navy. It'd be cool to see a longer video maybe a short drive?
