Simply reduce the voltage going to it or make a little bypass valve to spit some of the fluid back into the reservoir to release pressure.

Unfortunately, this is not true on all 99-00 NBs. Some still have the clutch and neutral switch on 1 wire.

And you have made the proclamation of it.

Huh, that sucks. Is this a Euro-specific thing? (I only have the wiring diagrams for the Canada / US models.)

Joe Perez

Ah, well there you go. Looks like you've got a fine setup, then.

Reverant

I can verify that the Euro (and actual JDM) have a single wire.

I have also seen at least one USDM card with 1 wire.

Your settings look correct, except for the seconds issue of course.

Btw the "Seconds" variable is how long the MS is powered, not how long the engine has been running.

I've asked the devs to add a "running time" variable but they didn't like it.

Awesome thread. I wish you could do this with a/c as well :(. I think you'd need a 300amp alternator though...hah... anyway good work sir!

It's a shame that the ASE timer isn't accessible here- that would provide a usable workaround.

Well the ac is clutch activated so it doesnt matter.

Leafy

More along the lines of. I wanna put a no compromise turbo manifold in and still have AC, so the ac compressor needs to go somewhere else.

Run top mount and cut the frame like fae

First thought: Seriously? In a Miata?

Second thought: For real?

Third thought: Just buy a household window-style air conditioner and strip it down to the bare compressor. Install a suitably sized 120v inverter in the car, and use it to drive the compressor.

Fourth thought: Since you are clearly of baller-status what with your air-conditioned convertible and all, you can probably afford to plunk down the cash for a marine-grade DC powered aircon system: http://www.dometic.com/enus/Americas...ctdataid=80905

Since I did not have the time to take pics during the install, I felt like I need to explain how I actually mounted the pump.

So, here we go.. (Hardware in pics is not actual stuff, it's all for illustrative purposes)

Here is the clamp I was talking about. The MDF board I cut and drilled is the car's chassis in this case.

Godless Commie

The bolt is installed from the bottom of the sheetmetal/chassis, and two nuts are used to secure the bolt to the chassis, and then the clamp on it.

Then, it's a matter of substituting long enough 6mm bolts (or allthread in my case) to reinforce the installed clamp against torsional loads. Nuts are used at all contact points to lock the whole thing up.

This makes for an incredibly solid mount. I used three of these, and I am content.

For real...

I too am planning on installing AC in my car. There are days in summer when the sun just fries you, and the car feels like an oven if the top is up, in stop and go traffic. It's no picnic sitting in traffic covered in sweat.

Damn...
Oh well, I'll just plug in 20 seconds in there then.. That'll give me plenty time, I hope.

Rev, please spoonfeed me.. What terminal is the #1 output on please?

Yes, but you live in Turkey, where it actually gets hot from time to time.

Leafy lives in Massachusetts, where the average summertime peak temperatures are in the upper 70s (F) / mid 20s (C).
