The lump is tiny in comparision, might be able to get two in there

Wiring up the ECU.



First I had to make up the 35 pin block connector. Wiring diagram nice and clear.





Making up the block pins.



Slowly, slowly.



Buffalo solder, dreadlock wiring...



Wires pulled through a waterproof seal, the fat wire is the shielded wire carrying the inducted mA signal from the crank.



Getting there.



All done.



Now I need to make the loom for all the boring stuff like lights, horn, clocks etc...

Great job sorting out the spaghetti...

I think I would have put the wires thru the seal as I was wiring the connector... Looks like it was a bit of a PITA.  Can't wait to see the video of it running.

Boooost gauge where the ignition used to be.

[JPaganel]

Where did the throttle bodies come from?

[Havoc]

Evening man. They are 2009 XJR1300 with secondary butterflies removed, air-to-exhaust port emissions rubbish removed, injectors replaced with 680cc DEKA items. I may replace them with something with a larger bore or go Meth/water injection to in the future if I have to run too higher boost to force mixture through and inducing detonation.

What do you have left to do?

[Havoc]

I have to machine up an outrigger bearing/clutch slave housing, an engine cover to house the 36-1 trigger wheel and pickup (going to take some work to make it look less ugly, first one I made was very agricultural), finish the wiring, rebuild the clocks so they will read over 200mph (just in case) then set the old girl up on the DYNO. Unfortunately I'm getting very little time to work on it at the moment, it's exam time at work so I'm in 12 hours a day and to tired to get up the shed in the evening. Back on it in a few weeks, hopefully ready in 6-8 weeks...

If not, I get 6 weeks off over the summer so it'll come together quickly then, already at least 2 years passed the original deadline 

[Havoc]

Didn't like the lines of the head cooler feed line. Cut through too many other lines and looked 'tight'



I struggled to get the feed to follow the frame lines so I made a longer one. Looks better I think.



Should finish the majority of the wiring this weekend.

If she suddenly goes missing, and all that's left is a plastic katana model, your bikes in my shed  ,, not that I like kats or anything mate 

[fintip]

I can't wait until you get this thing on a dyno.

[JMR]

The new line looks much better

[GhostMerc]

New line looks better.  I think it's one of those things that nobody notices until you point it out though. Now that I've seen it, it can't be unseen.

Keep up the good work.
