Turbo Timer wiring

Recommended Posts

Hi All,

 

Well I just received my new Apexi turbo timer. Well the wiring diagram is not very good. It just says use a harness! Well they do not make a harness for a 77 280Z with a turbo motor. So how do I wire it into the system. I looked at the 77 wiring diagrams and they do not really help. So here is my question.

Where do I wire the following:

 

Blue wire to IG1 ????

Green wire to IG2 ???

 

I hope some on here that has put in a turbo timer can help.

 

Thanks

Hi All,

 

Well I guess no one has ever put a turbo timer on a 77 280Z. That means if it is not to cold tomorrow and it does not snow again I will have to take the column apart and see which wires are active in run and which ones are not active when off. Have a happy holiday season!!

wait........

 

i know they make a harness , i forgot where tho

 

should be an easy install ......

 

the turbo motor / wiring will not affect your starter system in any way .........

 

i forgot the wiring diagram to do it tho , i had an apexi , it was 2 wires , 3 when i hooked up the EGT...

MaxbOOst,

 

I have looked for the harness (Apexi does not show one for the 77 280Z) but remember that they did not have a turbo in the 77 280Z. But if anyone can come up with a harness that would be great, alot less work and I should be able to put it in without freezing!!

The plug in harnesses are made by HKS and Trust/Greddy, the HKS one is made for the 280zxt and the Trust one is listed for the old skylines but works in the 280zx. I have no idea if eith will fit the 77 280z, even if either of these fitted, your Apexi timer may not plug into it, i have the Trust one with a Trust full auto timer.
