StuDoc 72 Posted April 30, 2012 Author Share Posted April 30, 2012 Right boys got a few bits at the weekend. Got an HKS actuator and a boost gauge and oil temp gauge. 1st of all is the actuator do-able while the turbo is still on the car cant be bothered with it turning into a mssive job. 2ndly the wiring. Boost gauge has vacuum pipe and 3 wires red black orange. red n black i assume are live and earth. Is orange maybe a remote for a dimmer or sumthing? What vacuum pipe do i break into for the gauge and where do i get the wee splitters that i plug the pipe into? 3rdly the oil temp sensor has 4 wires. Red black blue purple again live earth and 2 that go to the sensor? which i assume i needto buy seperatly and also a sandwhich plate to put it into? Whos gna tell me the missing parts of the puzzle lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

StuDoc 72 Posted May 1, 2012 Author Share Posted May 1, 2012 Aye mate black till it lights up. Just need a live ignition feed just dont know what will be best for it i dont want wires all over the place i want to keep it as tiday as possible and so that i can remove them without much fuss im quite fussy when it comes to electrics seen too many disasters wiring wise. As for the vacuum pipe u need a T section and can cut into the top hose off you DV/BOV and use that or take it from the MAP sensor. I found this it should help you. http://www.toyotagtturbo.com/forums/showthread.php?81-boost-gauge-fitting Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Graep91 Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 thats what i did earlier mate put the boost hose in just havent wired her up yet im the same with wires like hate it looking messey. let me know how u get on with the wires Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Graep91 Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 i a thot the lights would be the best for the dim wire to tap in to craig al give it a wee bash when a get a chance Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stefan_s Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 is it an autugauge boost gauge? if it is then the orange wire is for the dimmer when you put the lights on Quote Link to post Share on other sites
_shaun_ Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 u can also wire the orange cable in to the "illumanation" wire on your headunit if u dont want to cut in to the lighting circuit positive its the orange wire but on my head unit ISO adapter the wire was labed illumanation which was a give away Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StuDoc 72 Posted May 4, 2012 Author Share Posted May 4, 2012 Ive already cut into the lighting circuit when i done my indiglos shaun so its all good i know the exact wire im after lol. The thing im not sure about is the blue and purple wire coming from the oil temp guage. Are these both for a sensor or is one of them for a sensor and 1 for a dimmer also. I keep meaning to check myself over the battery but i forget so do any of you know? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StuDoc 72 Posted May 4, 2012 Author Share Posted May 4, 2012 Autobhan De-cats boys whats the verdict? Might see if this boy will split. http://www.ukstarletclub.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=52793 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
_shaun_ Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Ahh nice and easy then.my oil temp gauge has 4 wires 2 for power red and black then 2 other wires that go to the sensor both are white on mine tho so when u get the sensor hopefully it will be colour coded. What did u want to check about battery? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
_shaun_ Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 When I got my car I had a autobhan decat on it and it snaped in half were the bung for the lamda was lol personaly wouldn't risk it changing decat isn't hard but I'd rather pay a little extra to save the ball ache of changing it again when it cracks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StuDoc 72 Posted May 4, 2012 Author Share Posted May 4, 2012 Nah i was meaning i kept meaning to check the boost guage over the battery to see what the orange wire does and made sure they lit up ok and stuff but i know now. So ill wire them up and just run 2 wires for the temp gauge to the engine bay for future use. Do you know where i can get an oil temp sensor from? I assume i need a sandwich plate for it and to grind the steering pump bracket? I think ill just buy all these parts and wait till im doing my manifold and de-cat n do it all in 1 go.

StuDoc 72 Posted May 4, 2012 Author Share Posted May 4, 2012 Just realised on here that skillamart and Zisco do a nice choice of manifold and de cats. They have a nice mild steel de cat for £110 quid and an Oe replacement manifold for £195 Im gna assume since they are traders on here the parts are of a good quality. Is this the best place to look for these parts brand new? Im going for the cheaper option as yous probly already know i dont wanto go wild and want to keep it as standard looking as possible. Few more questions to annoy yous all with Why is this manifold so cheap and much neater than the rest i assume its due to the pipes from each cylinder not being an equal length which im sure is best for engine performance? And whats the script with external wastgating do i just weld up my internal 1 and stick on a manifold with an external 1 and thats it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StuDoc 72 Posted May 4, 2012 Author Share Posted May 4, 2012 Zisco De-Cat purchased so your review better be good shaun haha. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Graep91 Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 is it an autugauge boost gauge? if it is then the orange wire is for the dimmer when you put the lights onna its a maptun one from my mates saab 93areo haha but the wires are th same colours mate orange is the dimm its sorted now and shaun the cd player idea is good likes wish i had thought of that before i did it.

StuDoc 72 Posted May 4, 2012 Author Share Posted May 4, 2012 I think he meant me mate because i mentioned a orange wire. Aye i think its autogauge. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
_shaun_ Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 zisco stuff is great and keiths realy helpful only prob with the mild steel is the paint will flake of them so they dont look good if u like a perfectly clean bay. some people heatwrap them to keep them looking tidy tho Quote Link to post Share on other sites
