my guess is they went to the Fast Idle Control Valve on the Si - wire colors, blue and black/yellow - not needed on the DOHC ZC

the ringed wire goes on the bolt on the coolant outlet. The other wire i can't tell.

it goes like this, .[img]pic location inthis case, http://pic.piczo.com/img/i165271759_22584.jpg then .[/img]

you have to right click, go to properties, then copy the address.

i had a post before about how the zc plug would not fit the si .I pop the wires of the zc plug so it would fit the si plug. I have two extra wires left over i think they go to the plug on the pic below. The one wire is blue and the other is blue and yellow.
thank you guys for all your help

I'm slightly unclear on what's going on (and a little drunk...) but that do-hickey in the last picture is the Cylinder Position Sensor, which is part of the distibutor on the Si. I did a DX to ZC switch with my swap, so I had to run wires from the ECU to that sensor. Not sure how it works on the Si.

Hell, just try running the wires to that sensor, worst that could happen is the motor running like ***.

Edit: It's actually called the Cam Position Sensor on the ZC and I'm begining to think you should just ignore me.

you're right, match them up to that sensor. That's what I had to do.

I had one plug left after my install, it looked like a secondary coolant temp sensor, but my si harness didnt have one. so far all i've noticed is that my temp sensor doesnt work when i'm driving, only when i'm in idle. no CEL so its something i cant figure out later.
