Try making a custom mount where your storage/lighter area above your shifter is.

yeah, I had a lot of the same issues. Got the wiring diagram. Some people have done it, but like I said, it is a tough install. Much easier to install on an RX7. Finally, just got something else.

I don’t have diagrams or anything else, everything is in Japanese, and I’m a little rusty in Jap. Some one has to know were to get the signal from com on guys help a brother out.

For the rpm wire look at the Greddy harness. The dongle with 2 yellow wires 1 black and 1 brown wire is the rpm extractor. You will need to cut this off from the harness or else order another one. You can get them from Greddy, ebay, or other internet distributors.
Black wire goes to ground. Brown wire will provide your rpm wire. The two yellow wires go to the 2 rpm wires at the ecu harness.
Just match up the ecu pins by looking at the Greddy harness. It'll be the second connector counting from the passenger side, 2nd wire over, again counting from the passenger side, middle row is 1 of the ignition wires, bottom row directly underneath the first wire is the other.
There is no easily accesible speedometer wire on the 6mt rx8. I'm going to try to tap into the abs wheel speed sensors for vehicle speed, but it will likely require some signal conversion.

do you guys include AEM tru-boost? i have it in my car now, it's preety easy to use, and it works, and it's simple, so you don't have to end up with too many gauges.
it works as controller, adn you will see it as boost gauge and vacuum. so i have 3 gauges on my ash tray: tru-boost, AFR, and oil temp. i think you guys should think
about it.......
