ISIS Intelligent Multiplex System

[280~Master]

Has anyone seen or used this product? ISIS

Was watching Two Guys Garage back in May and seen this new system called ISIS Intelligent Multiplex System that is out for cars.

They say it can be made for any car out there.

It looks like this could be a very good if not great substitute for the stock wiring in a Z car.

Neat, but with the kits being 799 and 999 I don't see the savings potential.

Giving this item is new on the market it does seem high but with the options this kit has the options of custom programing

No more head light realays no more blown fuses could all add up to a nice cost.

Plus how much would a NOS harness cost you for a Z?

I installed one in a GTM, what a royal pain the rear. They made it look easy, all the real work was done before the plug and play shown on the show. We spent over 40 hours with two guys wiring the car. It is a cool concept but in my opinion not worth the hassle or the trouble or the time. There are several guys, mostly tech geeks or Electrical engineer types that really really like it or should I say think it is cool. For a newer car with newer and varied options it is not a bad idea but for our simple cars not ideal. The number of circuits are limited and even though they say it is less wiring I disagree, there is the same or more than a painless or other wiring harness I have installed. My biggest complaint is none of the wires are labeled. This is not the industry standard. I have installed just about every brand of harness out there, Painless, AAW, Haywire, Quikwire, Dieted donor harness, and this was by far the most time consuming and the least well thought out. On a Painless or others all the wires are marked, rt turn to light or rt turn to dash for example. This had none of that. Make it up as you go along and make your own diagram etc. Not simpler or easier than a painless, in my opinion.

Again a neat concept but complete overkill for the average guy. I know only one guy who has installed more than one of them. I know a bunch of people who installed one and will never do another. This is JUST MY OPINION, Richard.

Richard,

Thanks for the info on this. The show did look a little to easy to do. I will avoid this idea.
