Further along but I've got a few issues to work out. The coolant thermo switch connector is a bear to find, and I doubt anyone's will be in any kind of fair shape for reuse since the two stock harnesses here have crispy thermo connectors. I've heard that FD owners have used the FC thermo switch. It looks like it takes a simple spade connector as well. If they fit in the same threads without modification I'll include one of those switches in the package. Let me know if that is a viable option.
Also since my cars are modified beyond belief I don't know where the original ground points are for the harness. If anyone has some pictures with the ground points for the engine harness I'll be much obliged.

Here you go maybe this will help. It's the last harness I reconstructed and modified. It started out cut, but it's back home now . BTW it wasn't finished in this pic.

Ok guys I've been having a ton of drama in my life and I just found out I may get screwed out of 4,000 dollars. I'm not asking for your pitty, just a bit of understanding.

I've had this harness almost done for quite some time. Tomorrow I plan on finishing and if things go right I'm going to install it in my car. Once installed and I find that everything is working I will start building more harnesses and start to take orders.

The harness is done, I thought I would have it in my car by today but its been frakking hot and I don't have a fan. Hopefully I can put it in tomorrow morning before it gets too bad.
I didn't like some of my break out points. I'm going to change that on the next one. I'd also like to use braided sleeving next time. I think it looks more classy.

I think when you say thermo switch you are talking about the coolant temp. The thermo switch uses the black round connector and the coolant temp uses the green connector that was also impossible for me to find.

I am referring to the black round connector when I say thermo switch. I am going to be replacing that with the FC switch since it only requires a spade connector.
The "green" coolant temp connectors I have. But I can only get them in gray.


This one is very bare bones since my engine doesn't require much

The above pictured has:
Injectors (1600 secondary, 550 primary) I'll be pinning an FJO driver in line for this one.
Fuel temp (I actually am not going to use this)
Air temp
fuel purge control
knock
water temp for ECU
thermo switch for last fan speed
TPS
IAC
Water level buzzer
Crank sensor plugs
all 4 trans plugs

Things that can be added:
Air pump
oil gauge pass through wire for factory oil pressure (i really don't know why Mazda did it this way)
OMP
EGR
stock 02
im sure I'm forgetting a couple

Things that can be omitted from the pictured harness above for an extra bare bones setup:
IAC
Fuel Temp
Fuel Purge Control


It looks like I'll be offering a "build your own" setup. I'll offer the least amount possible for the engine to run and you can a la carte extra connectors.
If I start selling these, once your harness is "done" I will need an old harness for a core, there are 3 connectors I cannot get new, The blue connector on the ECU side, the white IAC, and the two pin shroud with yellow plastic insert on the trans connector. The reason why I'll ask for your harness when it is almost done is because I'll imagine many of you have driving cars that you don't want to have down for a couple of weeks.

Harness in and working. I had to work out a few snags, made some notes, but everything is working as it should. I'm going to order a few things that I should have had when making the first one and I'll start to make the first one for sale soon here, I'll let you guys know price real soon.

I need to make a correction on the above list. It is the coolant level that has the "pass through wire," it will be included in a basic setup.

...... in order to do that, you'll have to either sign on as a forum vendor, or (better choice IMO) is to run an intro Group Buy, which is very cost effective (75$ one-time fee).

I certainly want to support you in this endeavor, so if you have any questions about the process please shoot me a PM

yeah i figured that would be coming up. I'd like to do a group buy, but I don't have that kind of time to get something going like that, it would be a one at a time thing.
I'll contact you when I'm ready to sell.

if you were to post up a ballpark price or at least PM me one, I would consider having you do mine as this is something I NEED done.
