Check out the Solenoid/Vacuum Rack that came on the newer FD's
 

This is nothing new, but I have not ran across one of these and I haven't seen a thread about this is quite some time. I was tearing down a later model long block that I picked up from Japan tonight and thought I'd share a picture of a newer solenoid/vacuum rack. It seems to be alot more organized than the 93-95 FD's. It all comes out in no time. Thought it was pretty neat.

What you going to do with it?

Not sure. I'm sure it'd take some fabrication to make it work on our cars. I have too many other projects going on right now to do anything with it anytime soon. I was just tearing this engine down to part out and had never actually seen one in person. I really like the design compared to ours.

ahh the magical black box.... that was run of the 16 bit ecu correct? someone was on rx7club tring to make it work i thought but that was crist 2+ yrs ago if i remember right... hmmm intereting concept if ya wanted to undertake it but at the quick glance how do you replace a broke solenoid???

im gonna stick with single or non-seq till someone starts doing compound turbo setups for fd's.....hmmmmm with methanol injection hehehe

oops dont mind me ramblings
