sort story-------gettin my car tuned, meet tony at rotary performanace , switch injectors out, didnt bring a resistor box with me . luckily ari had some resistors wired them in real fast get tuned. all happy . after i got home i made the lil plate, tapped some holes, rewired the injectors(need more wire ) and this is what it looks like . lmk what you think

 

doesn't look that bad.. but why not just shove the box down out of the way, and then no wiring exposed.

But not a bad way of doing it. Very clean.

 

cool,
looks like a little stereo or something, haha.

 

i was worried about the solder joints, the weight of the resistors flopping around after awhile could maybe break the wire so i just did it this way ,,, i guess i could extend some wires and mount it under the i/m.. whixh i may when i pull the motor to do the build

 

Looks nice... but looks expensive...

How much did the resistors cost you?

yeah where did you get them?

 

acutally i got the resistors for 14 a piece, so all in all cheaper for new pieces than the resitor box

 

i got the from ari at rotary performance,(where we tuned at), if somone is intrested in them i can prolly get some from him

 

nice, i like it alot. very clean

 

thanks

 

I would hide it under the IM. I'm about to spend time to HIDE the injector wiring on my car.

Ouch! I got my resistor box for $10. Although I think your method looks cooler.

 

yeah ,, it sucked but my house is liek 1 hour aways from the shop ,, ( i ahve like 5 or 6 olskool resitor boxs),, but had to have them then so i could tune, in the end i think they look cool anyway

 

that actually looks pretty sick!

 

It's nice to see something different. We all see thousands of modified honda/acuras and they all look the same. It's like you can tell what most engine bays will look like without popping the hood because it's like there is some sort of rule that says you have to conform to a certain look. Heck, even people in this thread are telling you to hide the wires. It's good to be different.

 

wtf...did you shove one end of a "t" into the autometer fitting for you boost gauge?? haha, does it work?


btw, resistor's look cool....... and not because you're different, that's just a stupid way to describe it. they jst look "industrial"

 

i think it looks kinda tite!

kinda like a

"coil on injector" set up instead of a coil on plug! haha

Damn thats $56.....clean install though, looks nice

 

I think they look wicked

yeah that was also a quick fix i actually tapped the autometer t with a corse thread tap and screwed it in with some gasket maker,, works fine,, i just ordered a vac manifold so i can clean the vac lines up a lil

 

thanks for the comments

Hey he said he was think of mounting it under the IM, i was just edging him on .

Being different sucks when it costs 6x as much and has unknown reliability IMO. I build lots of parts for myself that fall into this 'different' catogory so i know from experiance. Either way he did a good job with what he had so for that.

Yeah I definately like it but $56 is WAAAAAAY too exspensive when a huge clunky resistor box is free - $15. Good job though

 

Well, when the only local shop who had one in stock wanted $80 for a used honda resistor box, this was the cheaper alternative! lol Looks good Mike, need a job?

 

Hello,
Question i got a resistor pack off of a 1st gen talon and there are five wires... 4 black and 1 white.... do you know which ones go were?
