A couple of things that i have noticed about your harnesses. This is not to bash or hate just pointing out things that i have noticed.
These connectors are no where near Mil-Spec quality (this really bothered me) , they look like speaker connectors that are used in clubs and bars, a poor imitation/rip off to the Chase Bays / Rywire harnesses. There is nothing sealing these plugs off from elements like water dirt ect, this will cause premature wear and corrosion There are a couple of different types of nylon engine loom that you can get, the weave on your loom is not very tight and you can see right through to the bare wires? The junctions where you have multiple splices coming together looks horrible. The heat shrink looks over stretched and its not even the correct way to make that type of junction.

Before I venture into the rest of your post and I'm sure Jeff will have a hearty reply himself if you're going to say something about not bashing or hating please don't "preface" it with I don't mean for you to take this offensively when I'm comparing your budget harness to a top dollar high end harness. You quoted a harness Jeff made before he started doing this as a business for his own personal car. His work looks worlds better than that and those connectors he used on his personal car were some budget camera equipment connectors used in television, and were recommended by Eric Castro. They got the job done, and they were budget minded.

These connectors are no where near Mil-Spec quality (this really bothered me) , they look like speaker connectors that are used in clubs and bars, a poor imitation/rip off to the Chase Bays / Rywire harnesses.

I think before you call anyones work a rip off of anything then you should at least know the origins of the people you're comparing him to. LOL!!! Rywire was getting so busy he brought someone in under him (chase bays) who after some time together chase decided he knew all he needed to know to run off and start his own business and take some clients with him and Ryan has received tons of work cleaning up chases fuck-ups. I personally have no problem with Chase and I think the quality of his work has improved but he still has a stained reputation and nobody has nothing nice to say about the guy I've spoken to.

As far as the OG'ness of their harness style, race cars, helicopters, jets etc have been using this style of engine harness with raychem covering on them way before anyone was casually spending money on this shit...

There is nothing sealing these plugs off from elements like water dirt ect, this will cause premature wear and corrosion There are a couple of different types of nylon engine loom that you can get, the weave on your loom is not very tight and you can see right through to the bare wires? The junctions where you have multiple splices coming together looks horrible. The heat shrink looks over stretched and its not even the correct way to make that type of junction.

He very well could've purchased some boots for the tech flex but again this was a personal inexpensive harness for himself. There are only a few people that have actually ponied up the cash for a raychem setup




Things done changed since. I would actually like to see someone pony up the money to get some "rywire quality" work out of Jeff and actually pay for it but it's the nissan community we're talking about here. Honda people will pay 1000 bucks for a front lip, you couldn't get anyone on this site to buy a set of wheels for more than 1000 bucks.

This is completely false. I had the name Chase Bays before I even thought about moving to California. An attempt at collaboration didn't work out. Whatever was told to people, true or false, was out of my hands. Do you know that we have fixed said competitors work too? We have, a lot. Engine Harnesses, Brake Lines, Fuel Lines, Brake Booster Delete Kits, Power Steering Kits. These items are all ideas that, in the purpose and market they serve, noone else offered when Chase Bays released them. That is a fact.

Here is a thread from 2007 displaying my wiring months before I made the move to California.

Custom Stealth K20 tuck harness i made... - K20A.org .:. The K Series Source . Honda / Acura K20a k24a Engine Forum

We are product creators and/or innovators, I hope that our original product line proves that. This is why we are still here today always considering and creating a better and easier way. No intellectual property has been taken to build our products. Just on Zilvia alone we have hundreds and hundreds of satisfied customers.

Thats all, just have to let the facts be known

Yeah I know what Ryans background in wiring is too that's why I'm neutral, don't really buy into everything I hear I just think it's funny that as a business you guys have everyone of your customers talking shit about each others work. Weather it's willingly or unwillingly.

You let me know when someone needs to go fix something Jeff did that wasn't a "hey can you repair my shit wiring job in hopes another problem I didn't forsee or want to pay you for to replace everything may pop up elsewhere." and I'll question having him touch my car.

But being my father comes from a similar background as him with electronics I think I know where my money will be going. I think all of your other products and collaborations are innovative and cool, I just don't have a desire to put anything manufactured by either of you "higher quality" guys on my car given both of your reputations and attitudes.

I didn't take many pics of Matt's car because I haven't done his upper engine harness yet... here's what his dash/chassis harness looked like before lol.


After with relay/circuit breaker panel, big bundle of white wires runs to his switches/gauges just how he wanted it:
