[ELI]

Depends on you.....its your car. I think it's O.K. but to the point where it is overkill and shaved and the disappearing brake lines it just a waste of time.
IMO...

[06civicsi]

get on chasebaysonline.com to look at pics and stuff

[rotoriousrx7]

oooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ill take one when i get the haltech installed

[Deentwon]

hmm.. whats the difference in that and shave and tuck?..
i just need to do all i can without takin the motor out right now cuz i will do the rest when i swap it due to time difficulties

[ELI]

Just plan what you want to do..... in the mean time, best to have the motor out and all when you do this .....look around and check out chasebays do some home work. I am planning to do a full engine and motor bay only. :thumbup:

[Deentwon]

i dont wanna go into the full on wire tuck like brake lines and all .. just make it pretty:) lol
like.. any wires that can be hid. and what should i do about the fuse box under the hood?..
also i dont have power steerin or ac.. are there any lines that pertain to those 2 that i can eliminate right now..
ill try to get a pic of what i got so far

[ELI]

My battery and fusebox will stay where they are, other than that everything else are going to be hid.
So maybe mine will not be a full bay..... :hammer:

[Mitch Detailed]

any help or advice?..

dont CUT THE BLUE WIRE!

lol it's simple. just reroute wires. the only thing i hate about it is it's very time consuming..

[Deentwon]

ahh.
well i just would like it better if they werent there.. guess ill just have to extend the wires and put the fusebox in the glove compartment and the battery in the back..

everyone that i say how im doing my tuck gives me shit, but i'm relocating the ecu behind the center console and placing the where the ecu used to be.

i had to extend every ecu wire 18 inches to do this,
most people think i'm wasting my time, but i dont want my fusebox in my glovebox.

[ELI]

Uh oh......

Any way we should be helping this guy about his wire tuck.....not my damn personal life, and I dont have to be there till 2pm now

[Bonb]

wire tucking isnt as hard as people think.It jus takes alot of patience.Cut all the wires out from the stock loom and run it the way u want it to go.simply put

[Deentwon]

yea thats not too bad for me..
i work with wires everyday doin stuff like that

[ELI]

Yea this guy has it all figured out FTW!!!
:lol:

[Deentwon]

lol but i just need to get my engine out whenever i out the new one in and then shave and tuck everything

[Bonb]

yes it'll b easier with the motor out..but do a little bit of research before you hack up that harness.lol

[Deentwon]

well its a d16 harness so theres a few pin connectors that arent connected so i cut em.. nothin to be connected to.. ill do this when i relocate my battery so therell be no power to the wires so theres no short or anything.. is there anything i should no?.

[Bonb]

Find a good place to run your harness into the car.there are some good locations but I prefer under your srs tray.theres a thin sheet of metal there.Cut a good size whole there n run your harness through.Label your connectors.As far as cutting your loom,thats all advice I can give.

[Deentwon]

right.. ive heard some people say to run the wires through the middle behind the ashtray console.. would this be better than the spot u described?

[Bonb]

yea,pretty much.you'll see what Im talking about when you take your dash out.

[Deentwon]

eh.. i really dont have a reason to take my dash out.. is there no way i can do it with it in?...

[capone]

why would you tuck the d15 dude. whyyyyyy lol. unless you just want practice or somethin.

[daegg]

why would you tuck the d15 dude. whyyyyyy lol. unless you just want practice or somethin.

ok...looks like your going to have to do some research.I dont know what kind of tuck your doing but let me know if you need some help.Or just ask Eli

[Deentwon]

lol i pretty much am tuckin this one for practice so when i get around to gettin done with the b16 ill be able to do it.. but as for now im just snippin extra wires i dont need everyonce and a while.. ive already takin a the ps and ac lines out i dont need and got rid of a few wires that ran to my head lights.. i didnt need em so i didnt care.. but the next thing is relocatin my battery and fusebox

very good info right there i looked at that thread alot while i was tucking mine. :thumbup: :thumbup:

[Deentwon]

i like the way those look .. but for me most of that is unrealistic.. too expensive.. i think i saw one b16 but they were clean
