99hjhm Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 There are two lines to the rear and one to each front all off the ABS blcok, so I would redo the whole issue, T it off at the rear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treblet Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 Any more new pictures of it in a million pieces across the inside of the tent? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CasperGTI Posted March 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 Any more new pictures of it in a million pieces across the inside of the tent?Ummmmm got pictures of some wires......So i took out the heater and aircon unit so i could get to he loom, got to trace some more A/C wires back, it think they go to the fan module that im pretty much going to be loosing anyhow and using a simple fan relay setup with motor sport fans (dunno what makes them motor sport ones ) Need to do the front of the engine loom which has all the injector wiring that i don't use, various sensors that i have my own wires to and the lambada sensor. So that should be fairly easy, Going to have a good day on it on thursday. Then ive got to get the steering column out and take the peddle box out, and get to the back of the relay board and fuse box, to remove what i don't need from there (4-5 fuses).

CasperGTI Posted March 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 Cough....This is one trick bit of gear. And its going to be easier to get that to work than my clocks, so the decision has been made, im going digital!!John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcusgrant Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 that will be very cool will it be able to show everything that your current dials display? like fuel level, outside temperature? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CasperGTI Posted March 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 Yeah it will be good, gotta chop the dash about though to make it look right, then obviously have ti all trimmed after. But i think i can pull it off.It really does make sense to do it, the wiring job has become a lot easier now the clocks and ecu are going. Canbus can be totally removed now and i don't need to worry about it, saying that i do need to have a look in to the immobiliser and central locking modules, as they still need power. But ive had them working with the clocks and ecu unplugged before.Just gonna take my time with it.I am setting it up to do:Rpm, speed, gear selection, Oil pressure/temp, water temp, boost pressure, air temperature, AFR, EGT.Thats all i should need in front of me, it has loads more you can connect up. Plus data logging if you want it.John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
