The bee-r will break it. When it cuts it throws the spark back in anywhere in the cycle so it's just like getting det. Also when you use it it flags up an

ignition fault code which then puts the ecu back to base timing.

Update for the week:

Got one or 2 bits this week, and got a good start on wiring done

okay first up, ordered some blue 12mm I.D hose, i thought after spending all that time polishing and painting rocker cover it may be a good idea to protect it against any oil spill ect.

next i cut a small peice of copper pipe to put inside the silicone hose

then all it was a case of was screwing the breather filter onto the other end of the pipe

i took the air filter relocation kit off the car for wiring, and just for reference took a photo. quite a few people have asked recently what the relocation kit looks like.. well here it is:

and heres a pic of my Bee*R limiter

ok now for wiring update :D

so to begin with we got all the engine looms, laid them out to see what we had to play with. next we put the GT turbo engine loom into the engine, and compared all the plugs up to see what we had and what we were going to need to look into. obviously most was just plug in, but there were a few that we were unsure were for, whether it be we didnt have what it needs to plug into or just havnt found it yet.

while we were doing this, we also labeled all the plugs to make it easy, and stripped all the plastic casing off so we could see wire colours.

then we pulled all of the plugs/loom through the bulkhead into the interior to see what was going to have to match up.. it wasnt realy a very pretty sight ;) only one of the plugs from the GT matches to the ecu, and the interior one from the NA fits as well. the rest are going to have to be modified to fit. thats going to be next week now though.

also under the engine bay, we have had to add some side repeater wires as your probably aware, the GT and Glanza dont have them. well now mine does :p we basicaly cut them out of the N/A loom and added them to the GT loom.

Photo0010.jpg

we started to look into the relay fuse box but could realy do with the diagram for what the fuses are for. so if anyone has this i would be greatful. i know on the NA it has a little diagram on the fuse box cover to tell you what each fuse is for and what size it is, but the GT cover was just blank when i got it. anyone know if they did this on the gt??

i know the engine turns over now, we were connecting a few wires testing to see what was what, and one of them turned engine over

thats about it for this weekend, will be back on wiring later in the coming week, so should have a more interesting update then :D

all comments welcome! :D
