Thanks!

easy as pie. Just have to trim down the blue connector for the X-14 connector, and repin it accordingly. THere are a bunch of threads just search for JDM harness.

Here's my problem: I have a fucked up harness (RX-7 1992 JDM RHD Manual Transmission)




So I went to a local JDM shop to buy this ****:



It seems to be an auto harness, 240 $ final sale later.

Now I'd like a nice single turbo harness.

What should I do? I don't want to buy an USDM harness with a PITA job to do to have it fitted on my JDM.

What's the tag on your original and replacement harness? There's a myriad of ones in the early cars, have some info up to about 94 on both auto and manual.

Can see the id tag on your second harness from here - near the firewall bung, if it's legible.

Auto harnesses begin N3A8, manual N3A7. 05ZG on the end might even go all the way to the end of S6, as I see it's on the RHDjapan site as a replacement harness...and supercedes earlier stuff on the info I have up to 94.

Just saw I have a third harness: I think it's automatic too. Thanks for your help, I'll look at the tag ASAP.

OK I confirm I got two N3A8 and 1 N3A7! I currently am finishing my single turbo build, do you think I should buy a 4th harness or I can make a nice single turbo harness with what I have now?

My manual harness is in pretty bad condition... but the small blue plug that goes near the PFC is OK.

I searched but I didn't find anyone with the same problem:

Got a nice auto harness, I simply want to put it in my new single turbo setup. My car has always been manual.

Can't offer any advice, no autos originally sold down here, so Mazda never had diagrams available. Do know the dash harness is different which would involve more stuffing around.

Crispy connectors....can get replacements for some new - or possibly splice in "good" stuff from your auto ones. If the insulation on the wires has gone hard, can only reiterate what my sparky says....get a new harness, as you'll more than likely have endless gremlins.
