Message	After dropping a JDM motor and new clutch in the Z, I just about hit the 500 break-in mark for the clutch. Motor felt great those first 500 miles. So I decide to feel out the car a little more and launch it for the first time. Everything went well and the car felt amazing and drove it home around the corner. Next day car wont start and I dont hear the fuel pump whine when I turn the key to on. Figured its my pump and I experimented testing different ways. Finally decided to take apart the fuel pump controller (FPC) and look inside. Looks like it fried itself somehow. Any ideas why?
