Hi, on taking this car out for a play the first time, the propshaft failed and it destroyed the wiring loom. I have got a new loom for a zx12. Does anyone know what part of the loom I need to modify or have any advice. Thanks, ste

The prop from engine to gearbox there is a large section of the loom damaged from after the dash to the engine.The generator wires have been ripped off too, but I have a spare.

Try this thread for starters....

Bad luck on the prop failure - I had similar with my last engine (the large nut attaching the propshaft to the engine came undone at top speed!). I was fortunate that my wiring and plumbing was unscathed - it smashed an engine cover instead. Did the prop fail at a universal joint, or did it fail within the tube?

Make sure you install pro-catchers to avoid it happening again in the future!
