so i have an ebay turbo timer, and i'm not quite sure how to install it. there is a diy on how to splice directly into the ignition wires. but it wasnt for a s13 obviously, so i need help on which wires do i run it to on the ignition wires. this is what i get for buying ebay, so any help will do great!

heres the diy for my timer :
Sho Nuff!!! - Ebay Turbo Timer (http://www.therob.com/turbo/timer.php)


the diagram for the timer says:
Red: constant positive
yellow: for key switch (electrionics assy.)
blue: for key switch (engine)
black: ground
Brown: Hand brake

please please please, any help with this will help me so much. pics or links would be great, thanks!

i dont think it will fit this turbo timer to be completely honest, im almost done with the wiring. from information from the link above.

RED: constant (white ign wire)
yellow: accesory (blue ign wire)
Blue: ???
Black: Ground
Brown: hand brake cut off

what does the blue wire go to??? it says on the instructions it should hook up to "for key switch second positive (engine)"

according to this
1993 Nissan 240 SX Alarm, Remote Starter, Keyless Entry Wiring Information (http://www.the12volt.com/installbay/alarmdetail/1595.html)


there is only 3 wires left available to splice into, which one goes to the blue turbo timer wire. the starter? ign 1? or ign 2?

someone take the time and help me please, im really frustrated :smash:

bought a pack of quick splices and installed this after talking with the nissan dealer and consulting the manual.

as far as the timer, its a really great product other than the instructions being in japanese. it works flawlessy, for the money i think it was worth it minus the brand name. but i'm very satisfied.

Now was that so hard to do on your own...? There is really NO need to clutter this forums with useless threads.
