hi guys im building a rx8 with a ca18det and haveing a few problems with the wiring up the ca18de ecu any 1 able to give me a bit of advice cheers
Firstly, yor a legend, CA is a true man engine. You only need to connect 4 wires to make it run. These are on the F10 and F8 plug, the big brown and grey one. I cant be arsed to use photo bucket but google S13 F10 connector you will see the one F10 connector the brown one brown wire = 10amp fused power to lambda sensor black/pink = fuel pump switching earth to ECU ( connect to ECU at pin 18 i think) F8 the grey plug big red wire: needs power from the battery. I think its top right as you look at it black and red wire: 12v feed for the ignition coils, i think it's bottom left That's it, and it will run like a badass.
Did you buy this as a complete package from a running car or just parts?. if it is from parts you do have a drop resistor fitted don't you? it's a silver box about the size of a mars bar with a short bit of wiring and a plug,without this the injectors wont fire I don't think. http://thumbs.ebaystatic.com/d/l225/m/m5HWMC57MlCXn8X-HL_cKgg.jpg
