Second GEN Honda J series anyone?

[Kraut_n_Rice]

So..

I've worked with a company to build a somewhat modular harness to run the second gen Honda J series. It will run early and later ones. Even into 3rd gen. Cable or DBW TB. It's set up to run on a FuelTech 550. Has an integrated fuse box for the engine, etc.

I need a guinea pig though. It won't be free, but it will be cheaper than you'll get elsewhere....

Anyone in?

ps. the tile is going away next week...LOL

Hopefully @Gharris18 sees this. Sounds like he’s a great candidate.

I'm kinda surprised this has had basically zero traction.

Nearly every Honda thread is someone asking about 2nd gen, hence me doing this,

What’s a second Gen J series? I have a J35 that is going to need a harness and computer.

I'm interested but ignorant on the different engines and their benefits over the J35...What's the main driver to get this new setup? No aftermarket ECU's available for them today, or?

That harness looks great. I’m sure it’s timing. Wait another month or 2

The second Gen engines have more power. These are the ones with a single exhaust port versus the first gen with individuals. The first gen can run on the factory ECU.

Kinda figured summer is when people are switching there setups or refreshing.

Are engine mounts the same between the two generations? I.E - say someone wanted to go from a J35 to a ? - What's all involved, what are the motors actually called- J45, J? (what years / what car(s) did they come in, etc.

In other words, help educate us on what it would take to go from a J35 to something better / newer.

I don't know about the mounts. They're a few different displacements like the first Gen. The Wki page on the Js is pretty good.
