B6E to Bpt wiring harness

[Blinks323]

Hey guys,

First off YES I have done plenty of searching through the forum and have yet to come up with the info that I need.

Ok, I plan on doing the 2nd gen GTX swap into my 323 at the end of the winter, but I 'am getting all the required info that I need now so that I don't run into problems.

I just purchased the Engine from J-spec Auto sports in Quebec, Canada, comes with the Engine, ECU, and the wiring harness.

Last winter I did an auto to manual swap, because of the obvious I don't like automatic. So I still have the automatic ECU and wiring harness and all the electronic goodies that went on an automatic engine (TPS, etc). All I did was jump a few wires.

So now I outgrew the B6E so In goes the BPT. One problem?

J-spec Auto Sports callled me today and said that they are having a problem getting the wiring harness and said that they would give me a $200.00 usd discount if I didn't bother with it.

Is it still possible to use the B6E automatic wiring harness with the GTX ECU?
What about the connectors (Knock sensor, TPS, O2 sensor)?

I checked my stock ECU and it has 3 yellow connectors going into the ECU on the passenger side and my TPS is a 4 wire if this helps with anything

If anyone would be able to help me out it would be greatly appreaciated.

Thanks, Steve

P.S. Anyone have or know where i can get a wiring diagram for the GTX.

i BELIEVE somewhere buried in the forums, we have a gtx diagram on feoa.com. i know we have lots of 323/egt/etc. factory manuals.

i dont know if you can use the b6 harness but i dont know how different those two motors are really...as i understood it, mounting and such they were quite different.

this could be a serious chop up, but you could use an escort GT or even a protege wiring harness. because of the lack of gtx harnesses and ecu's, some kids have gotten clever with splicing to run a stock harness and/or a stock ecu. but then again it may be as much work splicing up a b6 harness as a BP harness. i couldnt tell you, ive personally not done it.

there is some one on the forum that has a gx harness for sale or did awhile ago

post to the "want to buy" forum and see if there anyone with one floating around

i'm with MD323 on this one, if you spent the money and bought the gtx motor and ecu, i wouldnt cheap out with hackin up an n/a BP harness, you'll run into less problems if you swap the gtx harness in.

only thing, make sure you're buying a left hand drive harness, or you'll have to extend all the wires a couple feet, theres a guy on cardomain that had to do that.

good luck!
