Galantman03's 8G Build

any wires connected to it? Hmmm I think that it in the Hayes manual right?

[Galantfan88]

The only wires connected is the engine harness, but you can just disconnected that out the ECU. Hmmm I gatta find my book, but its on the passenger side behind the glove compartment and that big black motor for your heater.

[Stewi]

Yeah. You remove the glovebox which takes literally 10 seconds. Then the large black box is the blower motor, its held in by several bolts, im pretty sure they are all 10mm. I think there is 1 wiring connector that attaches to the blower that needs to be disconnected. Once you remove the blower assembly the ECU is right back there.

Looks like you did not install the fender flares. Having same issues about Cali's fender flares don't know how to install them and the rubber molding where to get.

[Galantman03]

^nah haven't yet, I got the gaskets from a member on here who lives in japan, they where 140 shipped. you don't really need them, but IMO you should get them, makes for a cleaner install

[Galantman03]

ok So i was told that the 74TB wiring was the same... so I went out to look at the wiring, and its not the same colors, a couple are, but some are different.
TPS
72TB 74TB
Green/Yellow stripe Green/Yellow Stripe
Brown/White Stripe Brown/Red Stripe
Black Black
Yellow/Red Stripe
IAC
72TB 74tb
Black/Yellow Stripe Black/Yellow Stripe
Brown/White Green/Red Stripe
2 Red Wires 2 Red Wires
Green/Yellow Stripe Green/Black Stripe
Red/Black Stripe Green/White Stripe

So is it safe to say that I can match like colors? But what about the ones that don't match? Also where does the extra wire on the TPS go? anywhere?

[kylecanthurdle]

yeah for a USDM bumper that will work, JDM is much shorter so its a really tight fit

ive got the old style. u havent seen my car in a while but i was able to fit my moster IC with little issues.

[Galantman03]

So I farted around today, and fix the speedo issue, wired up the 3 gauges I have, I have only 2 hooked up though, mounted the catch can, MBC, and figured out exactly how I want the intake piping set up... to bad nobody in town can bend thin walled aluminum piping............ so its going to be cut and welded hopefully tommorrow. As far as the lower intake piping, I'm started to get irritated. If you tell a customer friday that you can do it tuesday, you better damn well do it, and not say "Well, we will try to get at it...." so tommorrow I'm going back down there to see if they did ANYTHING, all they have to do is bend a 90 in it, and weld it to my evo licp........ If they haven't done anything, I'm just going to buy the pipe from them. blah people...

haha on a good note, got my tactrix cable in today lol

[Galantfan88]

Hey you think you can clear up on how to fix the speedo issue? I tried reading over that other persons post on how to fix it but for some reason I am not understanding what he is saying.

[Galantman03]

Yeah^ man. What you do is you take the blue black wire on the speedo, and hook that up to a 12v power source, I tapped into the big fat red wire on c-17. then you take the yellow/black wire and hook that to pin 3 on c-17(that wire is also black/yellow, its next to a gray wire) And then connect the ground somewhere on the tranny.. thats what I did, works like a champ. bummer part is the mileage is going on the g again lol

[Galantman03]

does anybody here have the diamante FSM? because I have search near and far high and low, and cannot find the wiring for the 6g74 iac to compare what wire goes to what... I found the TPS one club 3g but nothing on the iac

[Galantfan88]

Yeah^ man. What you do is you take the blue black wire on the speedo, and hook that up to a 12v power source, I tapped into the big fat red wire on c-17. then you take the yellow/black wire and hook that to pin 3 on c-17(that wire is also black/yellow, its next to a gray wire) And then connect the ground somewhere on the tranny.. thats what I did, works like a champ. bummer part is the mileage is going on the g again lol

Woow thank you so much, I understand alot better now. Thanks for your time bro...Imma try it out and hopefully get it working. I know that some of the speedo wires have diff colors from what I have so starting over the week end Imma take a look at the colors and see what I can do. Thanks so much for your time bro.

[Galantman03]

yeah I know some wires are different colors. I found a pinout somewhere hold on let me find it

Dont be so sure about that.


Its hard to tell which way the connector is facing in the pic so I will explain it like this. If you remove the connector and look straight into the end of it with the little notch facing up, from left to right it should look like this

power, ground, signal.

this is according to the diagrams I have which have always been accurate for me.

[Galantman03]

So I FINALLY got the exhuast done today... now it doesn't sound like a lawn mower any more lol

Is this the hole that I can thread the knock sensor into?

better angle

[Galantman03]

alright guys, need some help, I finished installing the outlander intake mani, and the evo fuel with the subaru wrx injectors. now at about 3000 rpm, its like i'm flooding the engine, doesn't wanna go anymore. now I haven't installed the evo ecu yet, as I'm not boosting the manifold yet. I just have the ICP disconnect, and I am using the aem intake hooked up to the tb. Now I was told that the wrx injectors, are plug and play, BUT could it be that the stock ecu can't understand them?

[Stewi]

They are plug and play, but they are sending too much fuel to the engine. Did you install a FPR? You should be fine once the FPR is hooked up and the ECU is tuned. Its just too rich and thats why its happening.

[Galantman03]

The FPR on the stock evo fuel rail is hooked up. But that was with my stock ECU, now I hooked up the evo ecu, it will turn over, but will not start. The map that I flashed to it was supposed to have the immoblizer off. but now I'm thinking its on. and for some reason ECU FLASH ISN't doing what I want it to do lol

edit: I forgot to mention, that I got my speedo to work, and now that I swapped to the outlander manifold, it doesn't work now..... ugh...

[Galantman03]

does anybody know how to save new data to the xml file. I need need to add a blobbit, but it won't let me save it in the base file... and if I don't save it in the base file then ECU flash won't bring up the new tables that I need for the immobilizer removal..

[Galantman03]

still no turbo.... having problems with starting the g with the evo ecu, if I could get it started! I could do the rest.............................................. ................... blah so I like this bumper now lol

[Exhaust power]

wow looks like a beast!
