Still need to buy a used AFM to pair with the 173 ECU for proper diagnostics.
My sbodyshop has been bugging me about dropping the car of for the plastic bumper install, but I don't gots the time to even do that right now.

The ECU and AFM fixed the bucking problem!
Now the car drives normally with AC on.
The car is getting the new plastic bumpers next week, then I'll take some pictures.

Plastic bumpers on.
It really makes a huge difference appearance wise. The car looks a lot more modern than the metal bumper.
I got another set of ES100 tires because I can't decide if I want to stick wtih OEM wheels but in 15" or go with BBS' since I have so far kept everything OEM, just with lots of European parts, like the Smiley's, the roller sunblind, the steering wheel, etc.

The only problem is, because the car was running lean, the not very old muffler hanger bracket is broken due to the out os spec heat that the bracket was not designed to handle.
So now I gotta go this get fixes to stop the exhaust rattling.
Othat then that, the car runs great now.
