Does anyone here have a connector so that I can just plug my V-AFC into my 2001 Type-R without having to cut wires, etc? The connector would just go between the ECU and the wireharness and would hook up to the V-AFC.

I need one ASAP, so please if you have available either post pricing information or e-mail me at onyx00@asu.edu

 

Almost $200

 

Try Kenji Plennert

 

THat's ******* ridiculous btw.

 

Try making one yourself.....it's not a can of beans

 

20 mins and about a nickel's worth of solder versus $200, go figure.

 

But he doesn't want to cut his harness.....sucks to be him

 

wouldn't you have to have the female receptacle from the ecu and a male plug to do this? i dunnno i dont have one

yeah you would need essentially a fake jumper harness made from those two pieces.

 

How much would you charge to make it? Not a flame, but we're talking about 100+ wires, all hand crimped and then tested to make sure it's right. The materials aren't cheap either, you have to use a different color wire for every lead and preferably have them matched to the cars original wire colors.

I used to work in a factory that made custom wiring harnesses (we made them for the Camry too), and trust me it's a fair amount of work to make one.

 

That's why we're implying that this fellow just splice into his existing harness....

 

That's what I did, and would do again. You can splice them back together if you need to.

I was more commenting on why it's a $200 part. It probably costs about 150 to make it. We used to make a high speed SCSI cable that was oly 2 feet long and cost $1000! It was hand welded under a microscope and could carry frequencies in excess of a gigahertz.

 

if you splice into the existing harness, than you can forget about ANY warranty service!!!!! dont let 200$ keep you from getting the harness.

IMHO i dont think it 200$ is worth it. just in case something goes really wrong with your ride. i thought about splicing inot the oem wires too but decided not to.

get it from kenji. here is his email: Kenji211@gte.net

 

If you, or anybody else, needs a VAFC harness for their Honda/Acura please email me at kenji211@gte.net.

I also make the following harnesses:

'00-'01 ITR to OBD1
'00-'01 ITR to '96-'98 OBD2 (great for Mugen ECU)

'99-'00 Si to OBD1
'99-'00 Si to '96-'98 OBD2 (great for Mugen ECU)

OBD2 to OBD1

'88-'91 CR-X/Civic to OBD1
'88-'91 CR-X/Civic to '96-'98 OBD2

OBD1 to '96-'98 OBD2

For more info email me at kenji211@gte.net

email kenji. Many on this board (including myself) are very pleased with his harness. $200 is small change to keep your warranty intact.
