I was just wondering what it would look like. For those that don't know, a wire tuck is when you move wires, electronics, cables, etc. out of the engine bay into areas like fenders, firewalls, basically anywhere where they wont be seen and clog the engine bay - done on older honduhs all the time.

im gonna do a wire tuck when i do my kswap its much easier cuz your swapping all the **** out ne way.

Hmm... wouldn't a wire-tuck decrease efficiency because you're lengthening the wires so much?

u dont lengthin the wires you just move them as far as they can go

yeah you just move them inside or in the fenders. i think some people lengthen some of them but its a matter of opinion if you want to.

seems like a lot of work but the results are nice

ive seen it alot on older vics but the 7thgen would require a little bit more work. Too much work for nothing

If you lengthen the wires doesn't that mess some of the sensors, since they use such low voltage that any more or less resistance would become a false reading by the ECU. Also don't you need at least a few wires to be seen like the ones that go to the ignition coils?

why would it require more work than older models?

What wires do you guys have running through your engine bay??
Obviously there are the Battery cables, coils, and a few grounds - seems like WAY more work than it's worth

I have several buddies that did this to their vw golfs and corrado's (in the vw scene i believe its called "shaving" the wires)

eh idk shaving the wires lol? you actually tuck them behind other things to make em look like there not there anyway im picking up a wrecked rsx this or next week when i do my swap ima do the wire tuck ill post pics

im thinking of a battery move to my trunk. when I do that I may have to look into this mod and see how well it works. and I can move tuck and hide. thanks i like the idea!
