Guess what we're doing....
- Thread starter Satan
- Start date
You guys should come out this coming Saturday....
Christian's getting the car over to the driveshaft place and we should have it back and be ready to wire it up on Saturday. Still have to install the IC and fuel pump, it may be driveable then.
Need to coordinate w/him I guess and see if we can get a few ppl in there and finish it up;-)

yo elvis, im running dry on funds... but if u guys want the turbos and pipes meet me half way on shipping and ill get it to you guys for free.
the rear turbo spins kind of sluggish, but i was told it may be due to old oil in it from sitting..... have any other pics of your extended wire loom?

...Yeah, I took a couple of close-ups (with the cellphone tho)... I'll post 'em up when I get home tonight. No problem on that shipping $$.... just Paypal me an invoice... g099521@yahoo.com
I am looking to maybe use the Aristo speedo, so that I can keep the tranny's electronics. We may need to have a conference call to talk about wiring and anything else we can help each other with.
Matter of fact, I can set up a local conf-call bridge, for ~50 ppl.... will be dialing the 972 area code tho.... maybe over the weekend, when everyone gets "free" minutes.

Here's a simple write up I did for someone on SF.... The last pic shows how clean the result is, but it's not a good pic. I'll try and get more this weekend....

Hey,
Here're the links to the pics I was able to get from the cellphone. Basically just shows you what I did... I'll try to get better pics of the finished product later. But this should help you. Get your "kit" together and since the harness is still in the car, bring your kit in there and get comfortable. Took us a few hours from start to finish (Satan's was helping ;-).... including all the prepping and heatshrinking the finished product.
Before you start…. Go to Frye’s and get a couple of rolls of some good wire, solder/flux, soldering gun, heatshrink that fits the size wire you get… I got 2 100ft rolls and cut about 75 20” sections and still had plenty left over.
Once you have everything soldered and done, slide the heatshrink over all the solder points and use a blowdryer or heatgun to shrink it. Hopefully you have not made big-ol' globs and the heatshrink slide over it easily enuff. I promise, by the time you get thru, you will know how to twist 'em and solder professionally!! :1poke:
1. Separate the wires in bundles of 10 or so, where you can distinguish individual wires (no same colors in bundles).
2. Cut and strip the car wires. Use a good stripper tool... costs between $4 - $8, but will save you alot of time and trouble.
3. Measure, cut, and strip the new wires (make sure and slide 2 pieces of heatshrink, before stripping both ends). Get enuff ready for the whole job and make sure and COUNT on having some left over. It's okay to have some left over, but not okay if you don't have enuff. Make sure and cut and place 2 pieces (about 1" long each) of heatshrink on each wire.
4. Splice 'em together and solder 3-5 wires at a time, from a bundle. Splice/solder the remaining ones in the bundle and then repeat the same for the remaining bundles of ~10.
Result (will get more/better pics soon)....
