You could try double clutching on top of rpm matching too. This would totally negate the need for synchronizers.

Check the primary and secondary resistance on the coil. Check the fuses. Check the resistance of the crankshaft position sensor if you have one.

Does the check engine light illuminate with all the other warning lights when the key is turned to the ON/RUN position?

Wish the front springs were different though. The rears appear to be dual rate but the front sportlines are normally wound, so the front tends to bottom out easy

Im running KYB 2GRs and Sportline springs. If your going to drop it you need a proper strut, the oem wasnt designed for it.

Unplug the efi fuse or disconnect the battery for 30-60 seconds. This will reset the ecu to factory settings so it can 'relearn' the engine.

100ma is still too much, you dont want more than 10-15ma.
There are fuses under the dash to pull too, just realize if you leave the door ajar while testing, it will use some amperage.

On top of that a capful of oil in each cylinder and bump the engine over for ~20 seconds with the ignitor or coil unplugged, that way the oil system is primed before you actually fire it up.
