I've finally overcome my phobia of wires and feel ready to install my RSM and G-Sensor, mainly because I've realised it splices into the same places as my AVC-R so I should be able to use that as a guide http://www.mkivsupra.co.uk/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif
Anyway the only bit I'm wondering about at this stage is the G-Sensor.
It has a number of wires with a small plug on the end, these go into the bottom of the RSM unit itself, that's not a problem. In addition to these there are 3 short wires coming out of the sensor, a purple one, a white and a black.
My install instructions are in Japanese:

So firstly can anyone read that?
If not can someone confirm my thoughts that these wires need to splice into the same coloured wires on the RSM harness?
The instructions with the RSM are english but only explains the need to put 4 wires into the ECU - Speed (Purple), Ground (Black), RPM (Yellow) and IG Power (Red) - this leaves 4 wires on the RSM harness - pink, white, blue and grey.
So if I wire the G-Sensor up to the purple, white and black as I suspect that still leaves pink, blue and grey - these are indicated to be:
Pink - Speed 1 Output
Blue - Speed 2 Output
Grey - Another Output?
I know you can set the RSM up to output if speed or RPM reaches a certain point (I'm hoping to set up an LED on the dash as a rev warning light with one of these) but that still leaves one unaccounted for.
Can anyone advise on any aspect of what I've just rambled on about or point me to an idiots guide in English?
