NOOOOOOOB

the firewall is the wall that seperates the engine bay from the cabin of the car

geez don't have to be rude. :P

I was basically asking which grommet to thread the wiring through.

(Viet boy) has assisted me with the installation.

So all is well.

Gimmi your front bar n I'll wire it for ya :(

there is a section of the 'carpet' on the drivers side behind the brakes you can remove

where there's a circular metal section behind it which you can drill out if your wires isn't long enough

Edited by POLICE

feed the wires from the engine bay through the hole at the back left (driverside) of the engine bay, this will mean the wires will go down into the driverside wheel arch. u will then have to take off the plastic shield around the wheel arch, then pull the wires through.

then u can stick them through the accellerator cable from memory, and thats it, your through.

Thanks for that

I will do that tonight.

Appreciate your answer

Cheers

needlessly harsh

OP, howd it go?

I followed r33cruiser's method and got it done but it was a awful process. I mean if I had a better jack that lifted the car higher i wouldn't have to squeeze my hand and cut my myself trying to poke a coat hanger through the hole. etc etc

was it worth it? not really

    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
    • and it ends up being already priced in as though you're just on 91RON without any ethanol. Car will lose a bit of economy as the short and long term fuel trims bring down the AFR back to stoich or whatever it is for cruise/idle for the engine.  
    • Oh, you are right. But, in Australia E10 is based on 91RON fuel and ends up being 94RON. Hence it being the cheaper option for economy cars. The more performance oriented cars go for the 98RON fuel that has no ethanol mixed in. The only step up we have left then at some petrol stations is E85.
    • There is a warning that "this thread is super old" but they ignore that anyway...
    • With 10% Ethanol, we're talking 2-3% fuel consumption difference. The emissions reductions and octane boost in my opinion far outweigh this almost non existent loss.    My tanks sitting at 80%. Luckily that should go down fast as I'm on vacation again for the next two weeks.
