Oh Ray Crowe, where for art thou?
I need a main engine harness. . . . he's out of the office till monday, and every other mazda stealership has quoted me anywhere from $1200.00 - $3500.00 . . . . . I talked to Ray a week ago and he told me $750.00. I **** my pants when he told me $750.00. In a good way

Sweet. Overnight shipped, and still got the $750.00 price. I thought it was a forum thing Ray did for us. John helped me out. Another thumbs up for the crew at mallow mazda.
Wicked awesome. Thanks impactwrench.

Actually, often when I call and he is not available, everyone else refuses to speak with me when I tell them I need rx7 parts. They are like "Ray is the one you need to talk to, he handles all the rx7 stuff". I am like "so you can't help me, you can't take my order so it can ship today?". "No, Ray will be back next week."

The other people that work there arent familiar at all with rx-7 parts, when I order from them I typically get the wrong part, so it's really not worth bothering.
I know he's going to be gone for until at least monday or tuesday, looks like he took a long weekend.

I would think that if Ray ever left, Malloy would continue with the pricing that he has been giving to us. Think about it, how many people on the forum use that 1 dealership for all of their OEM parts. I bet they sell a thousand percent more rx7 parts than any other dealer in the world.

Oh man. . . . . I really hope John knows his stuff. bc all the other places quoted me over a grand for it, with the most expensive being almost $3k . . . .
I called a few places around the US, and they were hovering around 1500. . . . So i hope there isn't more than one main engine harness. . . . It is being next day aired, so i'll have it tomorrow. . . . . but now you guys have me gritting my nails over the possibility of getting a wrong part.

speaking of which, this may have been covered RHD japan has engine harness for 580 shipped
https://www.rhdjapan.com/jdm-low/Maz...-13B-REW-50375
thats 16bit though, can you run this with 16bit PFC? does it matter? just wondering. I have the original harness and a PFC in my car and i'm wondering if i can use a 16bit harness when the time comes.

i'm just concerned that at some point there might not be any more 8bit harnesses where the 16bit was in production for much longer. The price of 8bit harnesses continues to climb but the 16bit harness is around the price i remember the 8bit being a few years ago.

8bit harness is listed for 725 shipped, but i guess we have our answer anyway. some day when an 8bit harness is really 1000+ or even 3000 maybe we'll have to improvise 16bit harnesses or something.

yeah i think they just added it to the catalog , edited my post lol
edit: i looked at my 8bit harness vs the pictures of the 16 bit. it doesn't look all that different, does anyone have both harnesses to make a side by side comparison?

im trying to get a few details about re-wrapping from some of the forum members that have done it(i think). doesn't seem like it would be all that much work. insulator break-down is basically the main reason harnesses need to be replaced, so some diy might be able to rescue them.
