Hi all,

Im glad to find a local group to join :)

I have a vindicator sprint rolling chassis and just put a rx8 6 speed box coupled to a st170 engine.

I am attempting to set it up on standard ecu inlet ect and wondering if there is anyone local that can assist with wiring?

Hi Tobe and welcome to the club. I see you are in Barming. I'm not your man for wiring up ecu's but I'm sure someone will be along in a while who is.

If there is anything else you need that I can help with then Barming isn't far in real terms to me.

Once again welcome.

....... Neil

Welcome, oem ecu's are a pain to wire in with built in immobiliser circuits, etc. I believe it was retro ford magazine or similar who did a two part article a while ago on wiring in a black top using the oem ecu. I've had a quick scan but can't see it online. may be worth checking out some of the retro car type sites as there may be a tech guide knocking about somewhere.

All the best with it, hope it doesn't give you too much of a headache. :)
