Actually I'm in the process of consolidating some of it, but with all the crap in there there is just a lot of wires. (Stereo, window switch, relay, purge and WOT switch wiring, FPSS, 3 noids, grounds... - plus the shload of factory wiring).

Thanks for the constructive criticism though, go ahead... I can take it.


The car is shown frequently, hence all the dressup. I ain't as hardcore as some of you racer guys but I still want a nice combination of "show and go".

Happy driving,
Bad30th

Some nice parts.. but that blue tubing makes it look like you're sponsored by Autozone.

Hahah, sponsored by AutoZone, oh, I'm wiping a tear away from my eye from laughing so hard. Maybe I should hit them up for a 5" chrome muffler tip and a Tornado for my bellows.

I suppose the engine should be black, dull and covered in dust - then I'd be a real racer !

...or should I have used black loom ? Or just left the wires flopping in the breeze ?

C'mon guys, it doesn't look that bad... Get past the wiring loom already... Like I said I'm trying to clean it up...

Hmmmmm, You might have missed the point here fella.

I don't think the poster gives a damn who you got the loom from or how much ya paid. He's saying that it looks cheap and lame. Like something you'd get from AutoZone.


Oringinal Poster:
The loom does your engine bay a great disservice. It's hard to focus on any one thing. You even have it on some of your heating/cooling plumbing. That's a little odd.

I will say the blue loom looks bad... The colored convoluted tubing ALWAYS looks "out of place" in my opinion.

I think if you just flat got rid of every bit of blue loom it would look pretty damn good.

Simple is better sometimes. Draw attention to areas that are special. Randomly sprinkling color will just make people wonder what the hell is going on.

Car looks nice. Remember it's YOUR car. Who gives a _____ what anyone else thinks. I make my car the way I want, not the way I think other people will like it. Good luck, Andy.

Well, thanks for the honest opinions, and the few compliments.

I do agree that there is too much blue loom and other distraction. I worked on it last night some, and will work on it over the weekend and post some new pics.

I am also thinking about going back to a polished TB/MAF. The purple Jantzer one was the first one that came out on this board waaay back when !

Thanks,
Bad30th
