Update: First Drive! Took the car to the exhaust shop today, and it ran perfectly! Idled well, great power, chassis feels good (needs alignment, but everything is tight). Love those Corsas, nice and quiet at cruise but wicked on acceleration.

I did get a Service Ride Control light, with lots of codes thrown, guess I have some work ahead of me in that regard. The actuators work, and the shocks are all good, so I guess I've got some electrical troubleshooting to do.

Also, the rear differential is still leaking from the pinion seal, even though I put a new seal in. I've ordered a sleeve kit and another seal to see if perhaps there's some wear of the pinion shaft causing the leak.
