Finally got the chassis harness completed, it was an intimidating task, especially since I had no prior experience with that crap. Time to button up the interior and move onto to getting her fired up for the first time.

Well I thought my chassis harness was done. Mind you the engine harness was not hooked up during testing. I put power to the harness and had every ground hooked up, my lights will turn on my brake lights work starter relay will click if I turn the key over my emergency flashers work.

The things that aren't working is there is no power to my gauge cluster or the clock, my wipers won't turn on, and my blinkers albeit when my emergency flashers are on everything works but when I flick the handle to signal left or right nothing comes on.
Is this because the circuit needs to be completed through the engine harness and the corresponding grounds?

I'm sourcing another chassis harness just in case, and will shorten OUTSIDE OF THE CAR ON A TABLE were I can fucking work instead of monkey shit in my car. I will still fit my dash and everything in until I Resolve my problem.

For the love of god, I need to get a camera, and some wheels lol.



It's a mess but, at least something is getting done. The Wiring Specialties harness for the 1j got pulled and sent back today the plugs to the injectors were to short and the last plug popped off. Got a hold of Yury, and I only wish every company I've dealt with was this awesome. He has great customer service, even tho I had the plug repined with more wire and ready to solder on. He insisted that I return the harness for him to repair because I paid good money for it and it's not suppose to be something I should have to deal with on his products.

There is really nothing to it. If you intend to use the master cylinder that they send you with the kit you need my adapter bracket and the remote reservoir kit from wilwood or make your own it's not difficult and then changing the length of the lines.

no brainer really...

I just hope it doesn't make to much noise like other multi disc clutch setups

A really poor picture, but im going into round two with the chassis harness I will be completley honest that the first one turned out like ABSOLUTE CRAP, totally janky redneck ugly. It functioned but I couldnt stand the craftsmanship of it. So im giving this one a shot I will gut it of everything not needed to slim it down and will see if looping it then loom over will suffice to shorten it up to hide behind the dash. If not cut and solder I just wish my electrical prowess wasnt so.....

Also I did move to the big city and the car is in storage but I am doing my best to keep it alive I got a whole black interior for the car and some other things. Its gunnabe slow as I finish saving up my down payment for my house

Life happened. I missed being able to drive a 240 on the street and this chassis has seen a lot of abuse. After having put a lot of thought into were I was heading in life I changed things up a bit.

Proposed to my girlfriend of almost 5 years and bought her a car
Stay tuned for this build... an I6 will make it's way in here in some time.
