Dose anyone know if placeracing is still open? There number dosent work any more and theres no listing for them when I called information, and there web site says that its under constrution. If there still open dose anyone have there new number. They messed up my ecu pigtail and I need them to redo it.

They messed up Steve's harness as well. Shitty Service/Products=Out of business. You might want to ask steve what they messed up on his but PR fixed his so im not sure he can help. Worst case is you will need both wiring diagrams.

Yeah, mine was jacked up but I ended up fixing it myself cause I could never get a tech guy on the phone.

Well, now that the engine is in and runs, the only problems I have now are related to the engine. All of the stuff from PRI has held up fine.

It's good you guys did help. I would have been so lost since it was the first time I'd pulled a motor. I learned a lot from that experience.

Its always a learning experience and I was mad we had to leave you hanging w/o it running but it was good that you took care of the rest. The wiring is by far the worst part because of all the pins you have to do and i was glad Steve G and Juan figured out PRI's mistakes with their cars which made your car a breeze.

there used to be a thread saying it was shut down and where to go for some alternatives but i think it got deleted cause i cant find it

There is no alternative at this point and i believe someone said Hasport will not make them even with PRI's set to copy. So its a all custom job at this point unless someone finds a stash somewhere which is possible but only PRI would have it. I would think they had some on the shelf so they might end up in the market eventually if they had stock.

well I might redo the pig tail my self then. This swap has been a nightmare just becuse of placeracing. There pig tail that they made ,the color code on the wiers dont even match the stock pinout. so I have to trace them from the stock harness. If any one knows any good wiering guys that would know how to fix it let me know.

I wouldnt expect it to be that easy color code wise. If you have the wiring diagrams you just have to trace them out and pin the right locations. A few guys have figured out the pins well but im not sure if they want to share or not. But it can be done fairly easily with both diagrams.

All my wires were the right colors as far as I know. I think they based it off the PR3 wiring diagram. I just snagged one of those, tested the wire that runs from the dizzy to the ECU with an ohmmeter and when resistance was found, I just stuck in the appropriate spot.
