There is a harness on the driver side feinder liner,Do you still have the fender liner on ?
Mine is rubbing also because my tyres are kind of big.

Yeah I still have the fender liner on, So i guess that I will need to remove this and relocate the wire harness somewhere so that the tires dont chew threw them and have a whole bunch of other issues on my hand.

Hey Gary, got your PM and then read your thread. On the traction control issue, what we've found is that cars with both traction control AND ABS you have that problem (because the traction control on the JDM engine is different and won't work), but the cars with ABS only are fine. I would recommend trying to swap over to an ABS-only ABS ECU, but I don't know if anyone has actually tried that yet.
I'm glad the harness worked out well for you! Did that MSD tach adapter end up working? People seem to be reporting mixed results with them.
-Doc

Thanks Doc,
Yeah I actually just got the ABS only unit and will try to install over the weekend and see if that solves the problem. I will let everyone know if this actually solves the problem.
The harness works great, absolutely no problems at all, everything runs like it was stock right down to my cold A/C. The MSD tach adapter worked just like you said after we spoke about switching the two wires around.
I know when I do another swap guess who is getting the harness sent their way!!!!
-GP
