Hey Everyone,

Just wanted to introduce myself, name is Marlon and I hail from sunny Los Angeles. I am here because I've decided to jump off the deep end and build my first Club/Motorsports level harness for my 1975 Mazda Rotary Pick up. You can see some pictures of the project on my Instagram feed @SiRMarlon. Anyway I've just completed the PDM course and I am looking forward to completing the Wiring courses and the tuning courses as well. I am not new to wiring, but I am no expert. I actually pulled all the wires out of my truck a few years ago and built a basic harness from scratch with a new fuse box and a handful of relays. 😁 as I said this time around I wanted to REALLY challenge myself and step up my wiring game and do it right!

I have a Hardwire Electronics PDM25 that I am mating with an MSEL Battery Isolator, a Greyhill 15 Button CAN bus Keypad, and an Adaptronic M2000. The engine for the truck is being built by my really good friend @Turbo_Dave. It is a 13B-RE Semi P Bridgeport, balanced rotating assembly, pinned, doweled, and studded which is mated to a Borgwarner EFR 9180, Dual 45mm Turbosmart Wastegates, a Pro-Jay Typhoon Intake with a 90mm Throttle Body, 2 x ID1050x Primary Injectors, and 4 x ID1750x Secondary Injectors and a slue of other bits and goodies! 😊

Anyway I still have a TON of questions in regards to some wiring that I am hoping you guys might be able to help me out or point me in the right direction!

Here are few shots of my truck when it was running before I decided to rebuild it again for the 3rd time! πŸ˜„

The Rotary Truck

""

You can see I did a somewhat decent job with the wiring. I actually ended up selling the motor, transmissiong, and full engine/body harness to my buddy as a turnkey system. We pulled everything out of his truck and put everything from mine into his over one weekend and had it fired right up the first time. I was pretty proud about that! πŸ˜ƒ

The setup in the picture is a S4 13B Bridgeport with a 51.5 Ported Weber Down Draft, and a MSD Waste spark setup using 3 coils, 2 x leading, 1 x Trailing running through the distributor like the stock setup.

Hello and welcome i have just had one of these utes on the dyno in my shop last week not in the same condition as yours but the owner is just getting started on the project, such cool trucks too
