Default crazy speedo??? weird idle when start

ok well i repainted my car and in the process i removed the engine...after starting about a year ago i finally got it running smooth its not boosted the engine is a d16z6 but after i start it the engine runs at about 800rpm when its warm...right when i start the car the idle bounces a lil for a min then smooths out but when i give it gas the speedo says im going somewhere...the tranny has no axles in it maybe that could be the problem but i was thinking of maybe a bad ground...i check all the vac lines to see if maybe thats why the idle bounced when i started it but their all in the right spot..

put some axles in it and try again.. the open differential might be affecting the spedo... But yea, worying about a spedo not working before you try and dirve the car is lame... Get in it, drive it, then see what problems you got...

well turbo cars are almost never perfect, i know your not boosted but get used to ---- being wrong...

your weird idle at start could be iacv going bad... or being dirty, pull it off and hit it with some carb cleaner... mine did weird ---- for a while, i aventually just put a block off plate eliminating it.. and used the purge selonoide to let extra air in when i was cold starting.....
