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.

http://www.boomslang.us/

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.

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.

      BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
