- Utilising sensors to obtain maximum data for your drag car is beneficial when it comes to making changes at the track. Wiring Pressure, Temperature and position sensors can be daunting and time consuming so we got some help from the crew at Whiteys Wiring to show us how a Motorsport grade wiring loom is made and what the key differences are between Club level and Pro level wiring. The boys knock out the engine and transmission wiring in teflon coated TXL wire leading to a pair of Deutsch bulkhead connectors ready for us to finish the job inside the car.
Once the boys are don we then fit up the remaining sensors required for Kevin's track data in preparation for the rest of the @haltech Nexus R5 wiring to be done.

I think if Alex has a shave and rocks a mo, he'll look like Farva from Super Troopers
Hey Al, go for a drive in the Crown.
"Busy night?!" 😂😂😅
Always, ALWAYS watch to the end. Hidden gold there be hidin' arrr
Got him *GOOD!*
The wristy joke was gold! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Another great episode 💪
That key pad scene was fire 🔥 thanks AL 😂
Al, you are the closest thing I’ve ever had to a “hero”. I just got one of my fleet back on the road, your favorite; MKII MR2 Turbo, and I’ve learned so much from you since I wired that thing that I’m just going to rewire the entire thing again because I know you would have it so much more simple than this. Especially a non-A/C, non-P/S car like this?
Thank you, to you and Woodrigo, for what y’all do. Cheers from Texas!
It’s mint that you guys are always learning, I think the day we close our minds to learning a better, faster, safer, whatever way of doing things we might as well give up…
That's a mantra for life brotha. Never stop learning. ❤
Every day is a school day.
I'm self taught at mostly everything so I always appreciate getting experience with professionals. Thanks for sharing this guys, it's given me some good pointers as well as a chuckle or three along the way!
So many brackets Al, the boys from Bad Obsession would be proud.
“Busy night” my goodness that was hilarious 😂 😂
I've been an aircraft A&P and Tech for 25 years. All this wiring stuff has migrated from aero space. We've been using it for decades. Good to see you guys using it!
I love this, coming from an industrial power electronics and servo motor field this is awsome to see materials and tools we use for industry. Woody and al this loom looks killer and it's clear these guys know how to make something robust. That tefsel wire is the BOMB and I have seen it hold up to some pretty impressive temps in electrical fault conditions.
I remember watching all of your vids years ago on wiring and using that knowledge to relocate my fuse box and install thermo fans in my 180. Finding all of the appropriate materials was a nightmare but it al came together and has operated flawlessly for years.
Self taught and sharing knowledge is a really fun way to learn but its always great to see the pro's (HP Academy are super duper pro). Very interesting to see those heat shrink solder sleeves being used also.
Thanks for all the years of knowledge.
OK. Stop the internet for today. Al just played "Funky Town" on a Haltech keypad. Towelie from South Park enters the conversation :D Thank you for the Kevin vid, he's a sicko and you guys are legends.
You got a like for the 'thanks faaarrrr watching' 😆
As you'd know Al, there's always 3 ways to do things - the right way, the wrong way or your way. Always do your way!
Well, this was a timely vid! I am just now starting to wire in all the modern conveniences I've added to my 1959 Jaguar! Sadly, I'll be replacing all those awesome Lucas push connections with official Deutsch connections. I wish you would have shown the proper technique of crimping a Deutsch barrel onto a crusty 64 year old cloth sheathed wire... but that's ok... I'll self-learn that. Keep up the good work!
Ahhh Lucas the lord of darkness.
My suggestion would be to replace the cloth wire Jim.
Not gonna lie boys this episode was perfect, Like most of us we all want to learn wiring but its a lot of information and points to take on that it just sounds like a whole different langauge in the end but this was awesome and to the point and on top of that some how this episode may have the best rumour yet 🤣 10/10 on this one boys
I like how all the snacks in the garage are just things that make you wince, like overly salted dried meat or a bag of sliced chilis. Next you'll be biting into a raw lemon 😂
That's it! Thats the melody to funky town!
underrated show
what's special about kapton tape(Polyimide Tape) is it's resistant to heat unlike electrical tape that will just melt and or lose it's adhesion when things get hot.
Problem is that Kapton can break down over time. Its been used in the Aerospace industries since the sixties. The most tragic example of the failure of Kapton insulated wires was the Swissair MD 11 crash in Nova Scotia. The crash was attributed to aged kapton insulated wiring which broke down and shorted. Needless to say Kapton is banned in aviation these days.
@@gregorythompson5826 Interesting is there a better heat resistent tape available today?
One really nice feature I keep thinking of whenever you put in a full Haltech system is the ability to reign things in, especially for a streetable car. Have a dial that goes "Sunday Drive" - "Cruise" - "Fun" - "Hoon". Like an automotive Mean Machine Angel.
"its a club spec wiring job."
Dang this is pretty involved for a club spec. Excellent work! Great video! very interesting!
Wid plum bay would pop in this car .
Great work
I never imagined that watching a wiring montage would be the greatest thing i've ever seen on tv.
Good work getting a Full Metal Jacket era Vincent D'Onofrio to work on the car.
We in the US Navy call those big multi-pin firewall plugs cannon plugs. The avionics techs I worked with had to rebuild them every now and then, when they developed a short.
Al coming strong with the Sesame Street reference
Thanks for the correction of my memory. I thought it was a different show. I also didn't know that Sesame Street made it to Australia!
love the message on the Crowns number plate , "The Nine is a N"
I watch this video every night now before I go to sleep. Something about wiring with The Skid Factory that keeps me calm and puts me to sleep🙃
Well, that keypad sequence is the best 14 seconds I’ve ever seen on RUclips.
I love watching the shows to see what you guys build and to learn as you learn, but the sound effects that you've been adding lately have me rollin' every time you push a button or play a car part as an instrument. Keep up the great work!
I was starting to believe TSF weren't uploading today but now my Wednesday is complete!
Killer soundtrack to go with my morning coffee.
i could nerd out with these guys over wiring all day, great video guys much love from the uk!
Alan, you wrapped my loom in Tessa tape. It is painful to unwrap now. Thanks!
Ooooooh, the cable clamps on the table is pure effing Genius. Gonna have to remember that.
Funny, Lots of informative knowledge spread around that garage, I enjoyed the episode a lot!!
If you're stepping it up from Al's amazing wiring it is next level, good stuff lads!
I work for a company that builds satellites and Kapton tape is the only tape we use. It's space rated because it doesn't outgas in space. Good stuff
Best comedy duo on the tube. Built ok automobiles too.
Brilliant, informative and bloody funny 👏
I've got a terrible idea - Woody do the coyote with twin turbskis in the hot V configuration. Sure it's heinously complicated and probably doesn't work very well but imagine the thumbnails with worlds first ....coyote ....in them and the clicks!
Brilliant episode boys really enjoyed watching the pros at work
Seat wise get yourself some Racetech, Sparco or similar Fixed back seats, can still get them braced to the cage like a Kirkey but you can comfortably sit and drive in them all day long too.
Cracked me up the little nod to sesame street when you were counting the injectors 😂😂
Thank FARRRRRRR watching... gets me every time
Geez I'm looking forward to seeing Kevin the Savage on the strip. Once it's sorted it's gunna be a very capable vehicle I reckon. Cheers.
Hey there Al, and Woody. You guys are proper legends. Your workmanship is constantly evolving from awesome to freaking awesome. This Kevin project is one awesome looking piece of kit.
I have a similar problem to you guys. Every time I wear a favourite merch shirt in my shed I burn holes in it.
Would it be possibe to get a TSF Welding Jacket or work shirt that's a little more shed proof? Hell I'd definitely buy one!
Keep up the freaking awesome builds. The Barra Crown Wagon, Big Block Crown, V12 Cruiser, The Hako everything you lads are doing is amazing
Could use your 2 extra thermocouples to monitor pre and post intercooler temperatures or water temp entering the engine after the radiator vs exiting the engine.
Yes you certainly can but we already have a Syltech high temp air temp sensor post turbo.
Gold. Great video,
Great informative video as always Al and Woody. Really like what you guys do and explain why you are doing things a certain way
IME, Those heatshrink solder joints don't have enough solder to fully penetrate the wire, you need to tin the wire first.
Drive the crown, Al!
Love the Simpsons Intro!
Kapton tape is good stuff, been using it on iPad repairs and protecting components from heat during SMD rework for years.
I cracked up at the radial tuned suspension reference 😂
Nice rendition of Funky Town!
I still remember the sesame street count from 1 to 12, incredible.
I'm 47
Milspec is a whole different ballgame… aviation is like wise. Until you have soldered in a 60 wire cannon plug your just playing house. The new methods and tools are making it easy. Having wires with stuff printed on them on demand makes life so much simpler. Granted there are so many more wires on a car today with all the sensors for traction control and such. My ‘66 Chevelle or ‘68 Super Beetle had maybe 20 wires total. Today a car will have 20 microprocessors - at least. Seen a headlight unit for a Tesla 3? It’s got one or two. In a headlight!
Could u share an image/link of Tesla headlight unit ?
Thanks for the reminder that I made the right decision not to wire up my nexus myself. The Soarer would still be immobile and probably burn to the ground before it got back on the road 😂😂😂
Takes me back to my QANTAS days. Those were avionics plugs, sockets and crimpers yeh?
Nice to see the pumpkin made an appearance. They're normally quite prolific this time of year, so its no surprise that it showed itself.
1 2 3 4 5, 6 7 8 9 10, 11, 12
Hearing that unlocked a core memory.
My right eye started twitching as my brain archive was being accessed
Such good advice at the end. If you're not enjoying working on your car, then don't
combination gauge and box cutter should market them :-)
It already exists, as seen on the skid factory.
I have a box of random brackets also! So handy
Huge insight boys. Good work on this!!!
It's the melody of the funky towel 😂
whiteys a champion!
thank goodness im just doing a patch harness
Wiring looks like one of those fiddly jobs that requires a lot of patience. I'd have to meditate for a couple of days before attempting to wire anything
Great video fellas, can’t wait for next 👍
And that's why you always watch til the end. All the really silly stuff. 😂❤
That's the melody to funky town. Well hiiid'y ho
Talking about weld proof some one needs to make some weld proof pants as merch i would by them in a heart beat.
"That's it! The tune to funky town!"
"Damnit towlie"
What a great crew, would have loved to have learned from them.
Looks deutsch fellas! Well done!
How many people were triggered by opening packages with precision measuring equipment
A matching to the color of the engine bay hand pinstriping at least a speed stripe. And accents on the interior in the purple
👍
I like how you gave it a guys name we all know how commodore owners like being in other blokes
For a second I was like what! Weed is legal in Australia.? It was jalapenos. 😂🤣🤘
You should paint that fridge magnet into the clear if you clear coat it 👌🏼👌🏼😂
Turbo-Yoda, is that you?!
Killer ep
Drive the crown!
Possibly a good idea to remote mount the coolant pressure sensor or whatever it is that's hanging out of the top rad tank.
Like there is no Fanny guard on the grinder 😂😂😂
Any updates on Kevin it's been awhile?
Is there an E09 available?? Keen to aee the "whole of car" wiring detail 👌
Not sure what was funnier: Al trying to count to 12 with this pirate's talk or playing funkytown on the Nexus keypad.
I would be keen to get these guys to rewire my RE Capella, but crikey it would need a LOT of work lol!
The skid factory logo looks a lot like the pink floyd album cover Animals very fitting cause the stuff you guys build does fly. 🐖
Do you reckon Pink Floyd ripped off The Skid Factory? Sneaky pommy bastards.
Kevo is funky
Drive the bloody crown Al! Hakauna Matata.
Random pumpkin just chilling in the background
649 th sub to Whitey’s Wiring 😉
Bout time you mob started making content again
When are you fleeting an Arcdroid to help with fab work?
milspec to civilians is fancy sounding... milspec to people who eat crayons is made to meet a standard by the lowest bidder.
