Can we use a NT harness ? I hear the only diff is a knock sensor wire ?

Dave99gst

@80D50SPORT - Those are no longer on there :)

@Cheaptalon :)

Not a ton to update - I drive the shit out of this thing in the summer.
I did fry my diff just with normal driving and upgraged the trans.

I forgot to add to this thread.. with the aid of the above info I got the logger hooked up and working great.

Dave99gst

i hear ya - but alot of people toss it up there on liquid cooled rails. Both of those things have entered my mind tho'

Dave99gst

Bill : i can unbolt the radiator and move it so the filler neck is pointing up. That was the main reason i went with rubber hoses instead of hard lines to the radiator.

Addict: hehe - im laid off, so ive got alot of time on my hands :D

I didnt no ANYTHING as far as upgrades to the motor. Ive got ...

Dave99gst

thank u very much my friend...hopfully I can get it wired up on monday

Dave99gst

this is the correct plug right ? Ive got like 4 wires in mine.

Dave99gst

You will need to connect pin 1 and 2 on the ecu harness (white and yellow wires) to the corresponding wires on the diag plug. There will be a black plug on the diag plug that needs to be grounded as well. Three wires total will need to be connected at the plug. I will look at the plug on my d50 to ...

Dave99gst

Dave, just go to the yards and pics up the diagnostic plug and wire that up to the ecu, it only takes three wires, and it would be plug and play then.

That plug is on another harness isnt it? - I still need to know what wires go were. ( i think i may have the plug, i need to hunt thru the ...

Dave99gst

There Cutting brakes. ( turning brakes ) they allow you to brake 1 or the other rear wheel to aid in turning.

Dave99gst

i also am not sure if you need to ground somthing to make the ECU go into datalog mode?

Dave99gst

Ok guys - whos using a data logger of there "custom" engine harness?

If this is the only harness you have, then you dont have the factory Data Port. Anyone know what wires go were on the logger cable? ( i want to hard wire one ) I have the Self-Diagnosis Output Wire and Diagnosis/Data Transfer wire ...

Are you running Stage 2 or Stage 3 on the Pressure Plate and Clutch Disc? Cable or Hydro?

Stage3 & Hydro.

Dave99gst

na -- ill just be carefull

Dave99gst

I just took a look at the harness i got. One wire i got is in fact black with a white stripe, the other is solid white and a heavyer gauge then the black&white one.

Dave99gst

Thank you ! That deifnly help me understand whats involved a ton.

2 questions... Do you see any reason that i cant omit the dash light? ( no need for it on a sand rail )

and.. how do i determin what wire is "L" and what one is "S" on the alternator??

Dave99gst

Thank you sir ! Any idea as to what one is ground and what one is Hot ?

Dave99gst

in stead of the cam gear 95-96 sensor type you can also go the 97-99 cam sensor witch goes in the the same place as the 1g cas but it is much smaller and there is no adjustmend to it. the onlything you have to do is drill and tap the end of the cam. they are also smaller so no need to adjust the ...

Dave99gst

What do i need to make a 1g alternator work in my sandrail project?
I have a plug i can cut out of a harness. I know i need the large wire that goes from the post to the battery but what other wires?

Any thoughts ?

thanks all ~!

Dave99gst

Electricly speaking it should run now -
Im still missing a fuel pump/AN lines/coolant lines/exhaust/knock sensor,maft isnt hooked up yet,o2 sensor so i cant start it yet.

Its slow going latley, ive have sub Zero temps.
I have been playing with the dash and working on the floor.

The hole is were the boost gauge will go.

Ok , i tested my ECU in a friends car and it fired up no problem.

wtf am i missing ?

Dave99gst

Welp - ive got no voltage out of the CEL circut. Prob a sign of a fryed ECU ? Ive got a friend with a 1g that im hopping to test the ECU/ in his car.

Dave99gst

hmmm.. im not sure what else to say.
With the ECU and MPI both plugged into the harness. If i apply +12v to pin 10 the only way to get the MPI to function is to ground pin8

Dave99gst

Does it make sence that the only way i can get the MPI to "click" and see any power back out of it is by Grounding Pin 8 ?

Dave99gst

I think they were ok.

Dave99gst

well both MPI's were messed with while trying to figure out wiring so something prob got shorted out.

Dave99gst

sux - ive got 2 MPI relays and i think there both fryed -
I dont get any voltage back out of it when applying juice to the +12V pins. (both constant and switched)

Ive got access to a few more i can test.

Dave99gst

Yup Kennedy is exactly were you get the plate from. (also were my clutch,PP&flywheel came from)

Dave99gst

Shattering the trans is my only fear ( well that and not being able to keep the front tires on the ground ) There are other VW trans options i can go with if this one explodes on me.

Ive always wanted to put a 4g63 into a dune buggy for the hell of it.
After the 2008 shootout i decided to go for it. My buggy is already street legal and is a berian frame with a 7piece fiberglass body. To date i have totaly stripped the frame down and repainted it. Replaced the tierods,upr/lwr ...

Dave99gst

He simply needs to know what wires on the harness ne constant 12v/switch 12v, starter signals, grounds, etc.
Correct But , i truly do appreciate everyone taking the time to chime in with there thoughts/opinions.!

I started a project thread for ya all :

I could think you at least need the proper conntectors for your Injestors,CAS,what ever air meter you use,what ever throttle body you use,Spark solution. If all that adds up to all stock 1g parts then it would seem like the easyest would be to start with a stock engine harness.

Thats kind of what i was thinking !

Dave99gst

do you see the differance between my plugs and the ones you posted? I dont have the same number of pins so the pin #'s are useless. Thats why i figured wire colors may match up.

Dave99gst

Thank you very much sir - Take a look at these pic's if you would.
Pin 103 is my main prob i think. I know i can just splice into it @ the ECU but i would rather get it from the plug if i can.

I think this is what is refered to as the C-58 plug on

Greetings all - i am in the middle of putting a 4g63T into a sandrail -
Ive got the entire engine harness,ECU and MPI. Ive got 3 basic questions. (well basic to you all, not so basic to me)
1) what pins need to be energized constanntly
2)what pins needs to be energized only while cranking
3)what ...
