VVTuner... not sure if I want to do that. Looked up the installation instructions, and it says to splice into a bunch of wires. I have no idea where to find those wires and it doesn't say. I'll eventually get it, I'm just not sure how I'd install it.
Have an email out to DIY, I'll probably have more of an answer when they get back.

It's not that expensive. I got a 32k mile VVT engine with accessories, alternator, exhaust, intake, downpipe, wiring harness, front subframe, another set of fuel rail with injectors and a steering rack for 700$.
Of course by the time you're done all of this is irrelivant... since I will in no way want to play with wires again. -.-
Plus side, getting used to wires gets me ready for a rotary swap later...

At one point I had an FC and a Miata shell both sitting there and waiting for this... stuff came up. FC harness + stripped out shell would have been easy enough, but to keep heat/ac worried me.

Honestly? I wouldn't do either. But I'm a bit better than most with wiring.
What I planned on doing was stripping both looms, and take relevant connectors, then proceed to build a new loom with the old connectors plus new ones. If I had access to what you did, I'd have been able to get the harness done in a single weekend at most.
But I also planned to use a 13BRE, and not a Fail Chariot's powerplant
. (Edit) Don't get me wrong, I have two FC's. But the 13B in the second gens were (at least IMO) the worst rotaries made from the 12A to the Renesis.

You don't like the six port or the four port? I was planning to just pop in a six port to get going, then eventually get a hybrid housing setup with cosmo or rew parts, big street port and shoot for 230whp NA...
