Hasport, Hybrid racing, and R Crew are the only ones i have heard of at this point, yet i know nothing about any of them.

What are the differences?

Are any of them really fully PnP?

Which one would you choose?

I'm not sure about R Crew, but i can tell you that hasport wanted me to send them the harness from the k-motor and the indash harness from my car and they would modifiy them for $350, and two weeks later you'll have a harness. For me, i'm still driving my car so the I couldn't take my car off the road for two weeks to wait for them to finish.

Hybrid Racing on the other hand, I called them told them what i had and a week later i had a harness with full instructions. Instructions seem very very simple, and if i have any questions they said don't hesitate to call. Oh and that was $350 and i didn't have to send them anything.

I have chosen Hybrid-Racing to make me a one-off harness for my application. The reason for this custom harness is so I can run a RSX-S cluster in my 2000 hatch. In order to do this I need to supply harnesses out of my 2000 hatch. I (like you) are in the same boat - i need to drive my car until the install - so I bought duplicates of all the ek's harnesses I needed.

EK Harnesses
engine/firewall harness - (also known as cabin harness)
floor harness -
instrument cluster - (dash/radio/etc) harness
front harness - (headlights, a/c - also known as engine room harness) - which may not be needed but I got anyways

RSX Harnesses & Parts
engine harness
charging harness
interior harness
multiplexor (built into under-the-dash fuse box)
gauge cluster

NOTE TO HYBRID RACING - the last harness I needed to get is in the mail won't be long till I ship out to you.

Thanks.

Any additional wiring needed when using the hybrid harness? If so, can you clue us in to what it may be?

Are all the warning lights such as the CEL, alternator, brakefluid, etc... still functional?

How is the fuel pump operated? Ignition or by the ECU?

TIA

well i paid only 200 for mine, from r crew. and from what ive heard, its the same as all the others. there are like 5 wires that needed to be put into place. and my car is running cherry.

Same as in? I'll pose these same questions about the Rcrew harness also:

I'm just trying to get some info on how the different harnesses compare to one another here. Kinda give people a good idea of what they can expect from each one.

Hopefully the Hasport guys can chime in at some point too.

Just curious does Hybrid-racing have the PnP harness in stock or is there a wait for them? Do they need a core also?

thanks

 

[hybrid racing]

All functions of the gauge cluster are kept such as: coolant temp, mil, charging system indicator, and brake indicator. There is additional wiring with the harness. The harness does not require a core but there is an incentive if you send them in.

A PNP harness is available for those who do not wish to do the wiring on there own.

The Harness takes 2-3 days to ship out and can be customized for your specific ECU/Setup.

there are 5 loose wires which instructions will tell you where they go. yes all the warning lights are fully functional.

Are the harnesses any different if I chose to use a stock RSX-S ECU vs. K-Pro?

I'd assume that the connectors are the same seeing that many RSX-S owners are just swapping in K-Pro's for tuning.

Please advise....thanks.

KPro is just an ECU replacement. All of the wiring is the same regardless

 

[EK20A]

I am also running the R Crew harness and it has been almost a year without any problems. No CELs when using the K Pro.

 

[hybrid racing]

We offer both a harness for the Kpro and the DC5 ecu.

There are less wires involved in the Kpro ecu.

The ECU also mounts in the factory civic location.

 

[jNYCe5]

There are less wires involved in the Kpro ecu.

Why are there less wires involved in the KPro ecu? Isn't it essentially the same thing?

KPro is just an ECU replacement. All of the wiring is the same regardless

 

[hybrid racing]

If you are running the Kpro you do not need the secondary O2 wires as having the kpro allows you to disable this sensor all together.

There are a few other minor changes such as the ELD and immobilizer wiring.

well, some people might want to keep those things even on a Kpro.

although like you said: they can be customized per the buyer's request

 

[Matador]

Is there any write ups on how to take the harness off of a DC5R and modifying them yourself to work? I plan to run K pro also.

 

[hybrid racing]

The Hybrid Racing harness also maintains the factory DLC or includes a new DLC if your car does not come equipped.
