I recently bought the blitz dual TT for the rst, but ive been having a lot of problems with it. When i went to summit racing (down the street from me, i know, im lucky ) the guy sold me the 'wire harness' that was simply 'plug and play'. What a load of crap. I get back n start wiring everything, everything hooks up except one problem--the wire harness has nothing to connect to. I called up my friend who also has an RST and said that he had the same prob and that the wire harnesses dont work for the RS models, and told me to cut the module off the end of the red green and blue wire and just splice them into existing wires above the steering wheel. So i do that, i take the red wire and put it into the thick red wire (aparantly the ignition wire), the blue wire into a blue wire with greyish white stripes, and a green wire into a green wire located next to the igntion wire. Car starts fine, turbo timer doesnt turn on. I take the red wire off and splice it itno a smaller red wire (also told to do by my friend) and the timer gets power when the car starts, but after driving and removing the key the car shuts off and doesnt idle like its supposed to. I cant seem to get it working, all the wires except the red blue and green and connected properly and the vaccuum line is connected as well. Please help me if you know where these 3 particular wires connect to! Thanks!!

please tell me you plugged that harness in between the ignition plugs. you unplug the ignition harness from up under the steering column and plug that harness in between them. you might want to take any +12 wires off that harness too or you might develop a "parasitic drain" as my guages killed my battery...

I did, it doesnt fit, theres no harness out there that will fit into the 2nd gen non turbo eclipse for the blitz turbo timer. I know i need to splice the wires but im not sure which wires, if anyone knows please help.

ok the turbo models use the same harness as the non turbo. All u had to do is plug it into the igintion harness under the steering column and then run the wire to the e brake. So when u put up the e brake u can just shut it off and get out and the turbo timer will work. I dont have the same one as u but i have a apexi TT with a gready harness for a turbo model and mine works great ^^Work in progress pic www.fastfabrications.com

im sorry to say this but yes, it is true, all TT harnesses are the same. greddy fits apexi and apexi fits etc etc etc.... i guess maybe in a way you are right, there isnt a blitz harness, but there is a greddy.

I'll try the greddy harness, my friend was the one that told me that there wasnt one that would fit and that he tried every harness out there but aparantly not if you guys have one that works.
