whay does a 280zx turbo ignition harness look like?


Recommended Posts

Here's one end of it. The Ignition harness in a 280ZX Turbo runs along the driver fender well from the Coil/Ignitor assembly to the cockpit under the drivers feet. It's probably 4 or 5 feet long - it's been 3 years since I pulled mine out of the donor car. It delivers +12V to the Ignitor and coil plus a signal from the ECU to fire the coil & a Tach signal back to the instrument cluster. IIRC, bundled in there is also the power and signal wires for the boost sensor and the signal wire to the A/C compressor clutch.

 

The FSM tells all about the wiring needed so if you can't find a whole one, you can make your own fairly easily...

(In the picture, only the blue wire and the 2-wire black "T" socket are for the coil/ignitor... The white socket goes to the boost sensor. There's probably a GND wire in there somewhere and the wire for the A/C compressor)

Nothing magical about the turbo swap ingnition harness...one wire form pin#5 (IIR) on the Turbo ECU for the ingnition coil triger and the other is a +12V from the ignition switch. Simple as that, make you own...oh, you will need a "T" connector to plug the two wires onto the ignitor.
