Wiring harness/ecu help

Recommended Posts

Im working on swaping a l28 into my 280z and im in need of a wiring harness and ecu. I just want to get it running but im not having the best luck finding a good wiring harness around my area. So my question is is there anywhere online that sells the wiring harness/ecu i would need? Also in the future i want to start making power with this engine and im thinking i will need an aftermarket ecu (around 300 hp). should i just bite the bullet and get an aftermarket ecu? and would i be able to use the same wiring harness?

thanks for the replies guys, next question and I've been kinda up in the air about this, will I really have the need to upgrade my ecu for ~275-300hp? I've been looking at megasquirts stuff and im not a 100% yet on everything I would need to get that system into my car. Im thinking to start and just get the car up i might just go with a stock ecu and harness so its a little more "plug and play".

If you're looking for a simple plug-n-play harness you probably won;'t find one.  You'll have to some digging, at least, to figure out what certain wires do, and some modifying.

 

If you're just looking for a way to more power this thread is good - http://forums.hybridz.org/topic/50208-the-ultimate-l28et-guidewhat-you-need-for-350whp/  The stock harness swap has it's own problems, there are threads out there about ET swaps.

 

FricFrac was recently offering a harness for Megasquirt.  It's the most popular customizable EFI system, on this site.  People seem to like his work.

Stock EFI won't give you 300hp. You'd be lucky to get close to 250 with a stock setup. There is a guy working on a plug n play ecu which will allow more hp than stock and could probably get you to that 300hp goal but as always it has been delayed and currently in a limbo of sorts:
