hi all,

like most of us at some stage we fit piggyback style devices or add on units to your car.

they usually involve wires and cutting and splicing into the loom. most of you know this is very annoying, risky, painful and usually awkward.

theres always been inline loom harness kits and patch kits, but none really cover a good range.

boomslang is a company who make patch kits or harness kits for most piggyback style devices.

so you simply order the suitable harness kit for your device, plug it into your cars loom and then ECU

and you are provided with sub harness plugs for your specific device, no cuts, no soldering, no hacks, messy tape etc

this makes all of the piggyback style units, truly plug and play. so when you remove the device or sell it, its plug and play

and your harness isn't hacked to bits. you should see the state of my loom, its pretty bad and dodgy etc.

supported products;

- apexi afc neo

- apexi vafc2

- apexi safc2

- apexi vafc

- apexi safc

- emanage

- emanage ultimate

the skyline rb26 loom kit should be the same as the rb20/rb25 so you just choose this item for rb20/rb25

they even do custom work, i was going to use these guys to supply an RB26 to RB25/RB20 loom for the powerfc

its just as shame theres a few other gotchas when using the 26 FC on the 20/25, otherwise I would have gotten this done

anyhoo - just a shameless plug, i wish i had of known about this product before i started hacking up my loom ages ago

For those that wish to DIY...

I just bought a loom extension from grid.jp to suit my GTR for a similar purpose...

I was putting off the idea of hacking the loom, I was glad when I found this: http://www.grid.co.jp/en/prod/prod582.htm

Extension loom cost under $150 inc. postage and took less than a week.

that is cool. im about to install my safc2 and sitc this could be very helpful.

do you think they will do a custom harness for the safc2 + sitc combo?

might email them and ask.

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
