you need the

e6k unit

either the terminated (with connectors), unterminated (no connectors), or a harness adaptor that lets you use the stock wiring; harness

you can use either the stock fd sensors or the haltech ones

and a coke



mike
would the terminated be the better choice?



same question with using haltech sensors, would they be better then stock ones in some way? should i get them to be safe?

the terminated harness is too long, ie its not fit to the car.



i trust the mazda sensors over the gm ones, and the gm ones look like crap imo

so would you say go with the harness adaptor and keep stock sensors then?

on a FD that would probably work ok since in stock form it's speed/density. Unless you have to pull the engine, then it sounds like the stock wiring starts having some problems if it gets too mangled in the process of pulling/installing the engine.



Some people just splice into the connectors with the unterminated harness, so you have new wiring for the most part just spliced before the connectors.... other option is to keep the mazda sensors, disassemble the mazda connectors, and put new terminals on the flying lead harness but reuse the mazda connectors for the stock sensors... thats probably the cleanest solution when trying to reuse the stock sensors.

definatly get the flying lead harness.

dont buy the map sensor from a haltech dealer as you will overpay for it by about $40-50

dont reuse the stock harness or get the $400 adapter.

thats my $.02
