hey

just purchased 1

it looks pretty easy so far

just wondering how hard it is to get to some wires

now theres the 3 at ignition

red = constant 12v

green = ig1

blue = ig2

green and blue im unsure about

another thing

how hard is it to wire the o2 sensor and ground to the ecu?

and the handbrake release wire

to run the wires to these places is fine its just making sure its all fine is what im worrying about

im a comp techy

good at soldering

and installed about 20+ car stereos before

so i know its prolly not hard but its good to ask anyway

thanks for inputerers

i got myself the harness when i bought my one...an extra 20bucks but i didnt have to hack anything, just plug'n'play. splicing the ground/o2 wires is easy...might be a good idea to use those plastic splicer thingys from dick smith.....i just used the clamps that came with it....no dramas....very easy installation.

      But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?

      Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.

      Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.

      Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
