for the main part... although I am curious as to what you did for the sensors.

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by PandaHatch &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">I didn't do it close to that. I didn't want to go through the unibody and have it a bitch to get to.</TD></TR></TABLE>

U said u didnt go through the unibody at all... I guess I took that to mean that you brought all of your wiring inside of the cabin, and made connectors at the firewall to where the sensors get their signals.

I asked you if you relocated all of yer wiring inside the cabin meaning where the helllll did you hide those big *** connectors that used to sit on the firewall, and how did the wires get to the actual sensors?

to my knowldege, your wires come from the cabin, meet a connector. From the connector they go to their respective sensors, right? SO you dont gotta worry about hiding much?

Maybe im drunk or an idiot or somethin, but im having trouble visualizing where ppl hide their harness 'in the unibody'. I would appreciate any pictures at all helping me or any hints.

Im not bringing much inside the cabin, im trying to have as much as possible in the bay (or hidden in the bay)... So I would like to be as simple as possible

Well I didn't use factory plugs to go through the firewall, I used AMP/Tyco plugs to do it, a lot cleaner and much more accessable.

if you have no heater you run all the wires through the heater hose hole, all the lights and stuff run through the door jams and along the inside of the fender frame rails

That would look tacky just throwing wires through that hole. Do it the right way and invest in some nice connectors.

I've seen the car at Import Day and the past SUnday cruise in and I must say it is VERY impressive.

Where did you locate your booster and master cylinder?

Im Ready to drop a B16A1 engine into my 1st gen CRX and i started to do the first preps done.

some pics of the first stuff:


i sandblasted the Intake manifold fuel rail and Vtec head.

Then i cleaned the engine block it self ( painting it this week in a special wrinkle finish paint ).

so the intake / exhaust and head wil look like new. and the engine block it self nice painted and the valve cover looking like this :



shaved the logos and timing belt cover.

the car its going in:

Currently seam welding the chassis and closing all holes etc in the engine bay.

im going to use a 1995 delsol B16a2 obd2 wire harrnass and my current 86 wiring loom and make a nice custom loom asap ill post pictures of the progress. and post the suff i bought to do it and the costs of it

Greetings Erwin.
