Anybody here done the swap in a Canadian car ???

I am currently finalizing my Hybrid Racing wire harness and they say in their manual :
"24 . If you are running a Canadian model EG/DC cut C101 pin 14"

If I'm right C101 is the big grey connector near the ECU on the right side of the dash coming from my K engine harness, which is plugged to a connector that goes to the driver side. And at pin 14 there are 2 YEL/BLK wires.

I just wanna make sure I really need to cut those 2 wires in my canadian body, and that I got the correct connector and wires.

I don't remember having to do this on my EG. My suggestion would be to contact Will from HR with this question.

He'll sort this out for you. :up:

I was afraid to cut those since I've seen Qfactor tell this to a similar case :

your other problem is cutting pin 14 @C-101 YEL/BLK this is power for injectors,ECU,IAC valve,cmp,ckp and main relay#2.

so it contradicts what's in the instructions... and it's 2 big YEL/BLK wires
I'm confused...

 

[Zaknafein]

anybody knows ?? I ain't cut anything yet, waiting to see if it starts as it is

I'm telling you man, Call Will @ Hybrid Racing, he can answer any harness questions you have.

Sent a email to Will, David and Russ at HR, waiting for news...

Tried to crank it tonight, pump is priming right, but if I turn the key to start, nothing more happens, except my radio gets black until I release the key. Nothing seems to go farther.

I got the car started a little later by leaving the key to ON (pos II) and plugging the starter straight to the battery for cranking. Engine is running great, adjusted fuel pressure, everything looks fine. But cannot start from key nothing happens when I turn it

I end up cutting the wire on the hybrid harness that plugs in on the driver side.in there detractions the seem to be calling that plug c. Haven't started my car yet so some one let me know if this is right.

 

[Zaknafein]

just to let you know, I didn't cut anything, they said to cut C101 pin 14
I leaved everything intact, and my car is running for a month now, and everything is fine :up:

 

[eg6k20a2]

Dang and you got a Canadian version to. So what you just skip that part then?

 

[Zaknafein]

Yeah I'm from Quebec, Canada, and my car too

It may depends on your swap and harness, I used a 2004 RSX-S engine + tranny + wiring, and I got Hybrid Racing harness

In the instructions they tell to cut C101 pin 14, which I found was 2 big YEL/BLK wires. I've seen on a forum it was the power for injectors, main relay, fuel piump, etc... So not really knowing, I asked Will @ HR a few times, the best answer I got was that it was related to DRL (Daytime Running Lights), which I deactivated few years ago (removed the fuse)

So finally I was not willing to cut, I left it as if my car was US, and everything is fine, no problem, car feeling great

no you don't want to cut the injector, main relay or any other major component wire. You got on the dyno so that means its getting tuned now or is already tuned?

 

[Zaknafein]

no nothing tuned yet, only adjusted a few things fast for it to run correctly at low speed city driving, ajusted tps too, was way off

I'll get to serious dyno session when I'll financially can, quite an expensive swap when done the way it should....

 

[Zaknafein]

hope it can help you eg6k20a2, btw my car is a 92 civic 4 doors, CDM

 

[eg6k20a2]

Thanks sick, thats what i was first going to do cuse i have a 92 four door but had no interior. I found the comp stock 94 vx hatch for 500 so end up going that way. But back to that thing look like im going to get under my dash and wire that back together. That part of the hybrid directions confused me forever. thanks

Well if you want an inexpensive full tune without the need for a dyno, just shoot me an email. [email protected]

[eg6k20a2]
