Oh hell no don't say that. He is going to slow down, he is not quitting. Rwd cb7 will still happen, I'm rooting for it!

Bump diddly bump bump bump.

still haven't worked on it, because of the weather, my DD doesn't have winter/all season tires, and that's the reason I haven't worked on it, but now that the weather is starting to warm up, I will start working on it again, so I should have some updates within the next month

Sweet!

Tomorrow-Sunday is wiring time, I will try to get most of the wiring finished, or at least traced out and marked, then come Monday I am going down to work on the car, I will be cleaning up the rear for a day or so then I will start on the engine compartment hehe, this time I am going to try and get lots of photos for you all.

Looking forward to it!

uh oh here we go again



RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!!!, the wires are attacking again LOL

Right now I am going through and labeling all the connectors, then I will trace out what wires I need to connect to the accords chassis harness, I will grab a few connectors from work so I can unhook the engine and chassis harnesses at will., I will probably wait to bring the harness with me until the next time I am down working on it.

[Shadow1]

Dag that's a lot of wiring. Have fun. Lol

[almostJDM]

haha no joke, I have about 3/4 of the connectors labeled, right now it's getting a little tough, because the ones I have left are ones that the wires don't match whats on the schematic but I am trying to match them up best I can, once I get done with the ones I think I have matched I will look online again for other diagrams.

[almostJDM]

hmmm, ok I am highly debating on if I should just say screw it for the wiring and order a chase bays harness, since they now make a custom/race harness section that has all the wires right there ready to be wired, no hunting for them....yeah I think I will lol, the price isn't bad at all either, $690 shipped for it. Yeah screw the wiring headaches lol, and its and all brand new wires so its pretty much win win win. So now all I have to do is fine the wires in the accords harness that I will need and label them, then that will be that with the wiring

If its in the budget, I would, I've spent countless hours on some of the dumbest wiring gremlins ever in my cb, its dreadfull.

[almostJDM]

Really with a swap like this, their really isn't a budget until its running and driving, then who knows, I will have to add up the cost of the build parts and go from there, But I really don't want to spend a boat load on stuff I don't really have to, but with the wiring it's probably better that I get the new harness then to reuse the used and battered 16 year old stuff, but stuff like LCA's axles, and performance parts are not needed until the car is fully road worthy, that's when I get to try and make her fly, because in all reality this thing will only be as fast an an H22 swap or around there, maybe a tiny bit faster until I build it, because I will be adding 2-4 hundred lbs to it.

[almostJDM]

Actually I decided to just go ahead make the harness right now, then once the car is running and driving I will buy the harness, that way I can spend the $700 on something else like fuel tank, drive shaft, axles, radiator etc, so on with the wiring.

[toycar]

Fuck the engine harness either way. Go mega squirt, delete 99% of the bullshit and call it a day.

$690 for a harness, seriously? What are you having problems with? If you go with something like megasquirt it'll be 10x easier to wire up and way cheaper if you are seriously considering $690 for harness and then more $$$ for engine management.
