like most of us here, i like the look of a cleaner engine bay, so ive decided that im going to tuck every last wire possible. for starters, ive already disconnected the entire harness, and since im going to be needing only certain parts of it, a majority of it will be discarded. as far as tucking in the drivers side, it seems fairly straight forward since im going to be ditching that entire side as i dont need any stock ECU control as im going megasquirt. the only problem i ran into when attempting to tuck that side was that my door couldnt swing far enough to actually get at that bolt, so that fender stays on for now, unlike the passenger side that came out after scratching my new paint a little:Owned:.
anyways, ive already gotten rid of the infamous black box of lines, and im going to just leave the plugs inside the fender or something for the time being. as far as the engine harness goes, HONDA IS GAY. its been a while since i last touched it, but i forgot that the harness stretches from one side of the bay, to the other freaken side and into the fuse box. anyways, ive already got it off the car, so now the fun begins of disecting the harness and shortening it to whatever length i need.
anyways, asides from the alternator plugs, and the coolant temperature gauge plug, tach plug, oil pressure plug, and the starter ground, is there really any other wire that i may be needing?
as far as my memory serves me, im ridding myself of the IAT, engine temp sensor, O2 sensors, IACV, injectors, TPS and probably a few other ones im forgetting about. as you can see, im getting rid of quite a few plugs, so ill be clearing out alot of room.
now, does anyone know how to get rid of the fuse box? thats the one that im having troubles with right now since that is the only real suitable location for it
