Adaptronic 440 Install - Wires, heat shrink, cutting, splicing, crimping....
Working to 1am every night this week, plus two weekends.
The end result...I am very impressed but still a few things to do. It is far from perfect.
But it is clean, functional and it's alive.
Fuel system is holding, no leaks. Tune is running well, just a few issues with false knock.
From injectors to pump, filter, hard wiring relays, switches, ecu, O2 sensor. There has been a significant change to the car.
- I need to fix the temp sensor, I need a 28mm thermostat adapter (wire direct to ECU)
- two stage LED indicators - one to show relay is armed (e.g. fuel pump) another to show it's running.
- cleaner dash switch cluster (out of ally?)
- extend stereo deck loom, just going to keep it simple - deck + 2 speakers
- install Defi Link + gauges + custom warning lights
- finally fit the bigger brake kit
- fix up guards
list goes on......
My soldering iron I bought 8 years ago? and the one I bought for my mate
I swear it costs more now ($160) compared to when I got mine
Using what I could find at the local electronics shop.
The gauge wiring loom.
Just some of the mess.
Some of the tools.
Too many wires to make it look clean @_@
