Most are tucked away for the winter. Just have the 370Z on the road right now but I'll be transfering the insurance over the 280ZXT soon. I think I'll wire up the MS3 properly before I transfer the insurance.

Some would call it a mess - I call it progress!
No AFM or Vacuum Control Modulator and brackets. I'll bet I lost 10lbs just removing this junk.
...and my new get-the-harness-done inspiration. Thanks Yasin! We're busy working each other into an S130 modding frenzy

Ohhh my Christmas present finally showed up 
Go Fast Bits Turbo Fuse (use your BOV as a Pop Off valve - why don't we see these on every turbo car?)
.... and my fully adjustable Recirc/BOV again from GFB. I plan on running a recirc to keep the turbo spooled and partial BOV to run in conjunction with the Turbo Fuse. I really like the GFB as it's the only fully adjustable Recirc/BOV I could find not to mention great fit and finish.

Wow..very nice and great idea, I need to add that same piece of mind. I did not even think that this existed.
I am not going to admit as to how much time I spent on DIY Autotune's website in the past 2 days! Laughing..
Looking forward to it..VERY Jazzed (understatement)

I'm just working on the cabling for the dizzy and I found some nice shielded cables to keep the signal clean. I'm hoping to get that fabbed up as well as the thermostat temp sensors and injectors.
Are you using a stock coil (eg stock coil plugs?)

Wow I've put a ton of work into a little bundle of wires over the last two weeks but I've had some really great sucess with it all. The MS3 is running great! Went out for another test and tune today. Told my buddy that the car was running better than I've ever had it run but it felt like I needed new engine mounts as the engine was shaking a lot at idle. He kept saying it was like it had a dead miss. Anyhow we had stopped for coffee and were going to continue our run when we decided to pull the injector plugs one at a time. Pulled injector plug 6 - worse, injector 5 - worse, injector 4 - no change! Put it back on half way and it was smooooth.... arg corrosion on the injector - new injector plugs on the harness doesn't matter if the plugs on the injectors are corroded Wow the car is a new beast and I've only put on a cone filter, removed the AFM with a piece of pipe and a crush bent 3" exhaust all held together with the MS3. Pretty impressed how smooth and how much more power I've got by the butt dyno and no dyno tune either.
Here are some pictures - it's a pretty close to final product running prototype for the harness.

You mean for the six LSX coil packs sitting on the shelf beside me? You bet! I just have to get the diyautotune optical wheel for the L28 they just came out with for the distributorless ignition/sequential injection setup.

We have to get yours up and running bro. I'm sure it's something simple. Maybe I'll get you to ship yours over and I can run it up on the stimulator... You still not getting anything with the dizzy? Have you been able to track an '82-83 dizzy down?

Yeah I'm gonna start playing with mine again soon. The bug is itching bad. Summer is coming. I have a simulator that says the ecu works but it's gotta be something simple. I await extra power with this swap. Part of me wants to get it running from the msd box using the reluctor dizzy and fuel only. Then just do Edis and cop. I have a pick a part nearby with cheap parts. Then just machine the pulley down and install

MS3 needs the MS3X daughter card to run sequential fuel and distributorless ignition.
