Is this silky from hondatech by any chance?

 

oh its a pretty simple idea.. using a processor and FET's to switch power on / off.
where something like this is useful is on a project like yours.

the gist of it is having the option to remove relays and useless wiring in place of these devices.

just imagine having one box (or a few) where you feed it a main source of power (say 60amps?) and you then run all your inputs to it (blinker signals, headlight switch, brake switch, etc) and run your outputs to the same box(es).

now the wonderful piece of any cool pdm is the software, where a user is able to program his own logic to enable / disable outputs. just use your imagination to come up with w/e combo you wanted but something i'd like is a push button starter without the mess of the additional wiring with typical relays.. and the off/accs/on/start positions using a single start-button.

these are parts of the logical-state crap i was talking about. so in short, grab some FETS, wire 'em to a micro controller and write some code - tada! a backyard pdm and less wiring in the chassis! :-)

 

It's funny your mentioning this. I was designing a digital circuit for my PB start and then decided to use a PIC controller to simplify the logic and keep the PCB board smaller. I don't like the idea of having the push button start on the car if it isn't going to eliminate the key like the relay method uses. Otherwise, what's the point?

my name on honda-tech is tegdude227 but thats funny that u say that cuz my friends call me silky jonhson lol

 

so ive gotten some more stuff done on the car this weekend

some more wiring stuff me and a buddy labeling the wiring harness







also took out the fuel lines and the rear brake lines





also started on making my power rack into a non power rack thanks to this thread https://www.rx7club.com/3rd-generation-specific-1993-2002-16/how-de-power-your-steering-rack-942543/

starting to tear it apart







rack out of the car



tie rodes off



all holes welded up



all how i left it for the night still have some work to get done one the rack. anyone know wat kind of bushings i sould get for the suspension ?

 

I went with Powerflex, your other option is superpro, not much of a price difference, probably not much of a performance difference either.

 

Comin along!

 

where is the best place u have found to order the powerflex full kit from ?

 

Great project, very interesting so far!

 

Contact Juan on the forum, he's a dealer for powerflex.

 

I got atomic rex pillow ***** at the same time and he gave me a big discount on the powerflex bushings too. I'd get it all from him, I was happy with his service.

 

worked on the rack a little more tonight







took the front brakes off trying to figure out wat color i want them powder coated



started prepping the motor so i can take it to be rebuilt





man this this is so dirty





than i started working on stripping all the paint and factory sealant off and decided that i need to do this outside its going to make to much of a mess in my shop.

 

If you havn't finished with the wiring harness.... Would you be willing to post detailed pictures of each plug close up and exactly what they are? That would be a valuable asset to this forum.. I've been looking for something like that for so long it's ridiculous!!!

pm sent...

 

I'm willing to try for u guys that's for sure. It mite take me a week or 2 as my work schedule is crazy right now. But I'm whiling to help u out as much as I can.

 

I know!! Especially air bags just in case an accident happens Just playing! lol. I got a 95 as well. Ive torn apart and redid engine harnesses a good amount of times but ive yet to commit to the front harness. There is some simplifying you can do to the front harness that ive noticed with the fan relays and the relay box by the radiator. Now if you did remove the abs then you could either mount all your fuseboxes, battery, or whatever you want in that space. Engine harness already looks tucked other than the wires feeding to passenger side but you could easily run them through the tranny tunnel. I planned on doing that to mine with a 25pin deutch connector or however you spell it somewhere on the tranny tunnel then making a pigtail off that so if i ever decided to switch from Power FC to Haltech then wiring should be quick and simple. Def looking forward to what you going to do with the wiring

 

I've got pig plans for the wiring just have to find time to do it lol. Im working 6 12 hour days lol. So Sunday all I wanna do is relax lol. Plus were bout to tear the old shed that we work out of down. And build a new one so that will slow progress down too

 

SEARCH NOOB. The guy posted the same thing on this forum but this is the one i save the link to...

hahah sorry for thread crapping

 

Thats awesome thanks for that find.

 

I dont know if you bought the suspension bushing yet but i bought the ebay delrin kit and installed it went together well. I made my own delrin for the front struts and engine mounts.

 

And a big thanks for that link to the wiring harness breakdown. Now i need to find one forr the engine and emission.

 

intrested also

 

I'm offering free shipping on bushing kits right now. I stock Powerflex bushings as well as AtomicRex pillow ***** (street and race versions) and OEM Mazda pillow *****. I'll be selling some high quality toe links and trailing arms pretty soon in case you want to upgrade them rather than replace bushings on the stock pieces. Send me a private message if you need anything. All orders go out the same day or next business day

I'm subscribed to this thread to see how the wire tuck and the rest of the car comes out

 

Thanx guys sorry for no updates lately works been crazy but ill prob work on the front harness some more this weekend.

 

looking good man. lots of hard work and it will turn in to your dream car.
