      The harness is installed, there are a few problems still.
      Installed it yesterday and gave up when the car wouldnt run.

      Today I went out there with my meter, wire diagram book and a fresh attitude.

      Problems yesterday:
      No start
      coil 0v
      fuel pump relay 0v

      Today:
      repinned coil plug at dash (weird that it needed repinned)
      Hard wired fp relay
      She runs
      Problems:
      No tach
      2-3k idle (fixed, BB hose was off lol)
      need to decide where to get switched power from for fp relay
      I live my life a quarter pounder at a time. And for those 500 calories or more, I'm free. I need FRIES! Two of them. The big ones. Oh, and I need them tonight. You're lucky the double shot of BBQ sauce didn't blow the seam on your nugget box. There she is, 2 pounds of pure beef. My dad ate it in 9.0 seconds flat. Check it out, it's like this. If I lose, winner takes my happy meal. But if I win, I take the burger and the toy. To some people, that's more important.

          So it looks like the tach is grounded to the coil. That makes no sense to me.

            Bump for diagram
            Does it really matter where the tach is grounded?
            I can simply ground it inside the cabin to make life simple.

              the coil "ground" is the signal wire


              sooo. no you cant ground it

              do you have a tachometer/engine diagnostic tester? try hooking to the coil neg and see if you get a tach reading from it (you should if the cars running)
              then try the tach side and and the diagnostic box (which you said you reoved so that wire is probably the root of the issue now that i think of it)
              to see where your not getting a tach signal

                That makes no sense tho. Why would the ground be the signal? Does the ground pulsate everytime the coil sends out a spark?

                  read my edit too


                  the coil is grounded to the neg side of the battery and to get the coil to fire the ECU side of the wire is connected to the rest of the circuit by the ECU. allowing the coil to fire, so yes it does pulse think of it like a light bulb you put the switch on the negative side of the bulb in between it and the battery and turn the switch completes the circuit

                            Pics soon to come:
                            Today I figured out the no power problem. (read ground issue)
                            I made a jumper ground wire for a temporary solution until I have time for a more permanant solution.
                            Need to install the cd player from the protege as I swapped the stock cd player from the 323 to the pro for the miata trade.
                            Also I need to run the tach signal wire, install the infini corners, EDM garnish and get the interior back to a normal condition.
                            Tomorrow will be busy as I'm leaving for the mountains friday.

                              I got the tach working, It was a matter of repinning again. strange why that would be in a different location.
                              Also installed the infini corners finally
