what ive been up to the last few days...

here's just a start of what ive been tackling...

Photobucket

Photobucket

(or NOS, maybe monster...) and some coffee and im good to go again...

i also ended up cutting out a bit of the frame so the wire sit flush since ALL wires are coming out this side of the car and NONE on the other... less chances of rubbing when i do get low someday...

wiring harness... Part 2

i cleaned out ALL the interior wiring that goes from the interior fuse box to the rear of the car... all that i need to finish are the ones that come from the roof to that harness and it's all done...

ahhhh no more wires beside the seat... they are inside the frame

from THIS

to...

all i left out was the one going to the center console, it goes under the seat not very visible, groung point from under the seat moved there... doesn't bother at all and i like it, i don't know i kinda like the view of a view wires still running in the interior all organized...

the rest is hidden inside the fenders and also a few shots of where i put the ground points inside the rear fender... all the rest is where it went stock on top of the tail lights and same thing on the other side, wires inside the fender...

(inside the fender where the seatbelt goes... expanded the hole a bit and everything passed easily...)

starting over again...

i ran into a few electrical problems... so knowing i was just gonna do this sooner or later im taking out ALL of the cars wiring and eliminating anything i can, i finished up the EFI harness today eliminated a bunch of wiring and plugs as always wiring leading to nowhere, look better now... took out the lower engine harness and also plugs and wire leading to nowhere but cleaned that up nicely.

i have to redo the maf wiring but it's been working for years the way it is with no problems (knock on wood) so im gonna hold out on that a little while...

took out all the "alarm" wires that the previous owner just did a hack job, put everything back to stock form =) yay, no more problems...

tomorrow on to the interior harness and some dash wiring, and after that checking my relocation of the fuse box and then relocating the relay box and fixing my mistakes... eliminating anything that i don't use as always and fixing broken wires and stuff...

let's see what comes from this project... i'm thinking another headache...
