Whats up folks? My name is Brett and I have owned and modified a couple of fc rx-7's. I work at a shop in Houston called SGP Racing. We have a couple rx-8's here with Greddy turbo kits and we are trying to work out some electirical bugs. I have a pinout for the A/T ecu but not for the 6 speed. Ive searched the forums and all I can come up with is the sticky for the OBD codes. If anyone can provide a link with the 6 spd. ecu connector pinout I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks ,
Brett

hmmm......

That does me no good if I dont know what pins those are on the connector. To be more specific, the rx8 in question has a misfire on the rear rotor and ive checked to make sure that the plugs are good, the wires are routed properly, the coils are on the right connectors, and so on. The catch is, I only have a pinout for the auto 8, and i know that the auto has 4 injectors where the 6spd has 6. I need something like this example for the 1g dsm, that shows where all the fital signals can be tested at the ecu connector.

EDIT: i should add that i also have the numerical explanation for the pins on the connector for the dsm, and thats what i need for the 8. Perhaps someone with a standalone ems knows where i can pick this up.

i know wha tyour looking for it is just that the above is all i cxould get at the moment. posted it in case it would help. when i havetime tomorrow or the next ill dig deeper.

check the coils for arcing spots on their back side , check the eshaft position sensor. clear the profile from memory.

SGPguy

The sensor is good and weve cleared the memory a couple times with no change. I'll check out the coils for good measure but if anyone could come up with this it would be a great resource to have.

check your pm.

are you guys using the blue emanage or the ultimate? I hope your aware of the issues with the emanage driving the kit. Make sure you visit this thread, alot fo good research has been done.

Hi Brett. Welcome to the 8 forum. I haven't talked to you in quite a while.

SGPguy

Printing out that thread for further study. Its a good thing these cars have such a following otherwise this info would be very hard to come by. Thanks for the help guys. We just got the injectors back from R/C and they tested good so its time for some more diagnosis.

How you doin Fred? You should come by the shop man, got my car running w/ a used engine. And slapped on some rx-8 wheels! haha

EDIT: yes, were using the blue. I thougt the ultimate didnt yet have a way to recognize the e shaft sensor on the 8? But I also heard that rotary performance came up with something.
