hiding s14 relay box....

[StricNyne]

also just realized, since mine not using many of the sensors due to my standalone ecu, mine is simpler but basically any wires that were connected will need to be extended ,t here isny many i THINK like 15 headlight ones, and 3 for sensors i think DEFINATELY under 25 wires will be need to be extended i would get some black zip ties, and some black loom to keep that oem look and use SAME GAUGE wiring !! and shrink wrap all extended wires

looks pretty good, wheres the final location for the relay box?

[StricNyne]

final location is going to be near passengers foot close to stock ecu, and like i said before alll wires that need to goto engine bay will go through hole engine harness goes through, i had to remove where i had it before cuz of some idiocy but the harness goes behind the radio and near heater core, i just found a bunch of beat up wires sincce idiot owner before me wired the fogs with speaker wire so i had to do a lot of wire repair today sigh yoshi let me kno so i can help u if my write up isnt up before u finish

[White Comet]

hmm instead of near the passengers feet, in teh glove box would be nice

[yoshi_hito]

what im going to do is probably attack the three "fuse boxes" like legos and mount them inside the glove compartment and make a photoshoped picture of the new set up with name/amps and stick it in there...

yea im going to rip apart my dash tomorrow.. as for the ps/bmc i didnt even de-tach them... you know from ps/bmc clips how half of the wiring goes to the front to ground/relay and they other half goes into the car? if you try to push the wires threw it wont go unless you de-tach them(because half wants to go in but half wants to stay out)... so what i found where the ground wires where (black wires that were attached to the chassis) and taped around the wires (once or twice) about 3" towards the car after folded the wires and pushed em threw and pulled on the taped side! So when i got done pulling the wires threw all i had to do was finish pulling the rest of wires in front of that ground point in.

also took out my condenser and going to take out the rest of my AC stuff... but hey how do you get a s14 dash off? i guess im going to go look for my fms

[yoshi_hito]

o another thing.. was thinking about using about a size bigger gauge wire to help reduce resistance... any thoughts on that?

[White Comet]

better than going w/ a smaller wire

[yoshi_hito]

mmm yea will probably needing to get some wires.. i ran out... what gauge is stock head lights gauges?

-edit-wow im getting tired hahah

what gauge is stock head light wires?

[StricNyne]

i think its liek 12 or something im tired too LOL but i got my haltech in my glove box thats why i didnt use it but good suggestion

[White Comet]

boy im not sure, ur best bet is to compare the size of the wire ur getting to the stock wire and maybe go a little bigger

[yoshi_hito]

who you callin boy?! haha j/k

but yea... im going to read up on how to pop this mtf dash off so i can wire/ground everything the way i want it... oyea any of you guys can teach me how to tune with calum?

[cmoody2006]

So where is this writeup located or is it even up yet?

[SlidinSideWayzSR]

wheres the write up at if its even up yet

[White Comet]

wheres the write up at if its even up yet

look at page one of this thread, thats all thats been posted so far

[yoshi_hito]

I had to leave to houston for work so this wont be done till after xmas... what i started on shortining the main wiring because it was too long to hide inside of the dash

[White Comet]

yeah thats all this process really is. shortening in some places and lengthening in others

[StricNyne]

i did not forget about you my peoples !!! im am still sorting sme things out and xmas isnt helping, but basically i am attempting to do this with ONLY lengthening the headlight wires and maybe plugs that goto lower harness, i basically snaked the harness inside the car along the firewall ,and ran it behind the car radio and back alone heater core to firewall im gunna hide replay panels close to where stock ecu was at

[yoshi_hito]

i say... we just put this forum on hold till the holidays are over.. were both too busy ahhaha <-- haha hat fell off

[White Comet]

sounds good, my projects have slowed down as well

[StricNyne]

i do have some detailed pics though i can post up possiblely xmas day

[yoshi_hito]

you also said you would post like a week ago haha.. but seriously man just wait till after xmas spend time with fam or other 240 enthusiasts... if anyone wants to buy me some small turbo parts for my call i wouldn't be mad
