I changed the A13 ECU power wire from the B/Y to the B/W wire on the ignition switch, and swapped the two wires back to where they were, with the ignition switch powering the ECU and the EGI relay wire powering the water injection again, and it worked! Car starts, and turns off too. However, the idl...

I installed the AEM pressure sensors and rewired the harness. I discovered the newer fuel pressure subharness I made was also wired incorrectly, with the power and ground wires swapped. I tried starting the car with no luck still. Joe noticed the ECU was shutting off during cranking. Apparently I ta...

I ran the permanent wiring for the fuel pump relay in the rear and put a switch on the wiring so I can provide power to the pump for priming the system. I added five gallons of fresh fuel to the tank. I still wasn't getting power to the CAN devices, turns out the fuse in the relay box was blown. I t...

My last relay box rewire failed lol. Joe told me what I needed to do and it seems to be working. The ECU only comes on when turning the key to on, but I haven't checked CAN yet to see if those devices are being powered. And my fuel wiring in the stock harness must be messed up because the pump still...

I got a map from Joe on Sunday and installed it on the ECU, I connected the large connector on the combo switch, and I turned the key forward. Boy howdy, do I have some issues lol. The left blinker and wipers were going crazy, but that was because I had only the large connector connected, so once I ...

I finished bleeding the brakes today, which was a chore. I had an issue with not being able to bleed the rear brakes and the pedal was stiff not even halfway down. I believe it was due to not topping off the master cylinder and running out of fluid when I was bleeding the clutch, possibly in conjunc...

I've gotten the engine harness finished and installed, I got the HVAC boxes all installed (it was kinda tough getting the blower box installed over the ECU for some reason), I repaired any of the interior plastics that needed it and got all the hatch plastics installed (although I forgot the panel f...

I think the brake line is good to go now. It hasn't leaked or seeped any the last two days. I ended up buying another tool from Amazon that had great reviews, but ultimately didn't help. I bought another coil of line just in case too. I also tried using the old style flare tool, which was awful. I f...

I heard from three people that the connector on the harness doesn't plug into anything, so I finished installing the front harness. I had to unwrap the harness and lengthen the wiring for the relay in the front as much as possible because it's contacting the core support. I ran into an issue with th...

I bought a 12v fuel pressure sensor on Amazon because that's pretty much the only place I could find one. And the only proof I have that it's 12v is that it's burned into the metal along with '100psi', and that's what the description said. I'm thinking maybe I should just change the engine harness t...

I finished the wiring harness aside from the one speedo wire still, and I have to add the connectors for the relay box once the dash is back in. The coil connectors were the worst, because they were the only ones that assembled reverse of the others, so you have to run the wires through first, then ...

I have the wiring harness almost all the way finished. I need to add the injector connectors, there are a couple other connectors that I keep breaking the terminals so I have some of those on the way, the turbo speed sensor connector was broken before I even put it on so that replacement is on the w...

I've been doing a lot of work on the engine harness, it's almost finished. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52815223032_487c6a83ed_k.jpg 20230411_230253 by Eric Jausel , on Flickr I got the new front harness today, so once I move some wires and remove some others, and swap a couple connectors, I'...

I got all the splices on the engine harness crimped, soldered, and covered with heat shrink. Now I just need to add heat shrink to the whole harness, add the labels, and terminate.

I'm still not sure what I'm going to do about the brake lines.

This brake line is kicking my ass! I bought a new die set from Eastwood for the brake line flare tool in the hopes that was the issue. Apparently not. I'm at wit's end. I made three more lines tonight and they all leak. I even made one that was just a straight shot because I thought maybe the compli...
