1967 C10 Pickup at 2012 SEMA Show

Here is another great customer vehicle at the 2012 SEMA show wired with our ISIS Intelligent Multiplex System.  It is a slick 1967 Chevy C10 truck called "Shameless".  Maurie H and his partner Don built a great looking truck with very clean lines.  It includes a one-piece body with a 2" chop on the top.  The doors are suicide with radiused corners.  They are running a Chevy LS engine with a Hilborn stack through a Chevy 4L60E transmission.  They integrated a 1959 Impala dash into the truck and spliced a set of Camaro bumpers on to the ends. 

We first met Maurie H at a SEMA show a few years ago.  He had heard about our ISIS Power products and was looking to add some unique features to his latest project truck.  He wired this truck with our ISIS 3-Cell Kit, our inMOTION controller, our inVIRONMENT and our inTOUCH MAX screen. 

The 3-Cell Kit got him an easy way to wire all of the basic functions in the truck including the lighting, engine management, cooling fans, fuel pumps and horns.  inMOTION got him simple control of his windows and doors.  inVIRONMENT lets him control his heating and A/C through the Vintage Air Gen-IV.  inTOUCH MAX gave him streamlined control of everything from a touch screen in the dash.  The finished product is a clean looking truck with streamlined wiring. 

If you want to see Maurie's truck in person, you can see it in the HRIA booth at the 2012 SEMA Show.  You can learn more about our ISIS Power products at www.isispower.com or you can stop by booth 24959 to learn more. 

More Details on the Fuller Hot Rods Thundertaker

Our friends at V8TV stopped by our booth at the 2012 SEMA Show to check out the Thundertaker.  This is the 1960 Cadillac hearse turned limousine that Bryan Fuller and his team built for one of their customers.  Everything about this car is extreme... its length, the chassis, the engine, the sunroof, the fins and the wiring system. 

Kelle had a chance to sit down with Bryan Fuller to talk through the details of the car.  Check out the video below. 



We'll be blogging more about all of the details of the wiring system in the car and how our ISIS Power system made wiring a complicated job like this very easy for the Fuller team. 

If you want to see the Thundertaker up-close and personal, stop by the ISIS Power booth at the 2012 SEMA Show.  We're in booth 24959.  You can't miss it. 

Come and See the Thundertaker at ISIS Power Booth

The entire ISIS Power team is proud to have the Thundertaker in our booth at the 2012 SEMA Show.  This is an amazing creation built by Bryan Fuller and his team at Fuller Hot Rods. 

The Thundertaker started its life as a 1960 Superior Royale Landaulet.  Their end customer wanted something different so he brought this car to the Fuller team to build a limousine out of it. 

First off, this thing is huge.  It sits on the largest chassis that Art Morrison ever built.  It also has a sunroof that is in the running for the largest in the Guinness Book of World Records.  This short video gives you a feel for how huge this thing really is.  It just keeps going and going. 

Bryan's team wired the Thundertaker with our 3-Cell Kit as a starter.  They then added 3 of our inMOTION cells to control all of the windows, the sunroof and the limousine partition.  You can only imagine the amount of wiring and the number of relays that were eliminated by wiring this beast with ISIS. 

Here are a few pictures of the car in the booth.  We'll be posting more over the course of the week to show off what ISIS did to make this car stand out. 

You can see the Thundertaker, built by Fuller Hot Rods in the ISIS Power booth, 24959, at the 2012 SEMA Show.  Stay tuned for more blog posts from SEMA 2012.

Finished GTM Wired with ISIS Power

We've blogged about this specific GTM before. Brian P just sent us some awesome pictures of the finished product, including an interior to die for. Brian P has been working on this car for some time. He has had some help from Shane Vacek of VRaptor Speedworks. The interior was done by Rick at Creative Audio Werks in Arizona.  The finished product is stunning. 

Brian has a very complete ISIS Power install in this car.  He started with a 3-Cell Kit to wire all of the basic lighting and engine functions.  We have a specific 3-Cell Kit configuration that we created for the Factory Five GTM.  You can see that configuration here.  This gave Brian a very easy way to wire the lighting, turn signals, fans, ECU power, starter solenoid, horn and other switched functions in the car. 

He also added our inMOTION Motor Controller for his windows.  This seamlessly integrates with the 3-Cell Kit to control things that move up and down.  In addition to wiring his windows, he is using inMOTION to control an electronic parking brake and a very unique gauge pod that raises from the dash on a set of motors.  It is a very cool look. 

From there, he added our inTOUCH MAX.  He wanted a central control point in the car that would eliminate all of the clutter of switches on the dash.  This gives him easy control of starting the car, lighting, windows and locks, all from a stylish touch screen. 

Lastly, he added our inTOUCH Mobile so that he can control the car from his iPhone.  His gives him the flexibility to enable and disable security, control his locks and turn on lighting from his phone. 

Thanks to Brian for sharing these pictures.  We're proud to be a part of this build.

ISIS Power- Where do I start to rewire my car?

Since we started the ISIS Power business in 2007, we have expanded our product offering significantly.  We often get the question about where you should start to wire your car with ISIS.  This post will help you start from the beginning.  Regardless of the car and its ultimate complexity, most builds start with our 3-Cell Kit. 

This link will take you to the details of the 3-Cell Kit. 

The 3-Cell Kit is a universal system that gets you everything that you would need to wire 20-circuit in the car. It includes one MASTERCELL to connect to your switches and 2 POWERCELLs. You typically place one POWERCELL up front to power things like headlights, turn signals, parking lights, ECU, starter solenoid, horn, dash illumination, etc. The second POWERCELL goes in the rear and powers the tail lights, turn-signals, fuel pump, amps, etc. The kit also includes all of the harnesses for the inputs and outputs plus the fuses to protect the power lines going to the POWERCELLs. The basic programming covers all of the basic car functions including our one-button start.

This link takes you to the manual for the 3-cell kit.

This link takes you to the standard front-engine configuration for the system, which is what you would need for most vehicles.

This details all of the input wire colors and output wire colors for the different functions in the car. This includes the fuel pump, fans and all of the other powered accessories.  If you'd like to watch a video that gives you more information on how to read our configuration sheet, click on this link. 

The 3-Cell Kit gets you everything to get power from the battery up to the individual accessories in the car. We give you the 4-gauge to go from the battery to the included primary fuse block. We give you all of the power harnesses for the POWERCELLs, the input harnesses to the MASTERCELL, the POWERCELL output harnesses plus the CAN cable that connects everything together. All of the harnesses are terminated on one end with the ISIS mating connector. The other is a length of wire. You run the harness to length, dress it and crimp on your terminal to connect to your accessory.

Most of our customers add inLINK. This gets you wireless control of the car through a 16-function key fob for things like lights, door poppers and panic functions. It also gets you a powerful security system. When the system is locked from the key fob, the outputs for ignition, starter and fuel pump are completely blocked out from within the MASTERCELL. Trying to activate the switch does nothing until the system is unlocked from the key fob. The best thing about inLINK is that is part of ISIS. You don’t need to connect in a separate alarm or radio control module. You can get more details here.

From here, you can get as extreme with the electrical and wiring system in your car.  If you'd like to learn more check us out at www.isispower.com or give our guys a call at (847) 232-1991. 

Red Bull Promotional Truck Wired With ISIS

We occasionally get customers who bring their vehicles by our office to show them off.  Last week, Adam Buck of Red Bull brought their International MXT truck by to show it off.  Adam hooked has been working with the guys at Agile Vehicle Modifications to create the ultimate party vehicle to promote the Red Bull brand. 

The Agile guys, now part of Midwest Truck Designs, are the experts on the MXT.  They turned to ISIS Power when they had to find a way to wire all of the switched accessories in their trucks.  From the dash, Adam needs to control scene lighting, fog lamps, interior lights, plus power to their gaming consoles, TV's and audio.  Instead of wiring all of these things point-to-point back to a central fuse and relay box, they installed our ISIS 3-Cell Kit with an extra POWERCELL.  This let them mount the MASTERCELL behind the center console to keep their switch wiring short.  They then could place the POWERCELLs in the truck where they needed them.  They have two of the POWERCELLs in a storage compartment above the driver's head and one in the rear of the truck. 

They also added inTOUCH Mobile so that Adam can control the lighting functions from the iPad that he has in the truck. 

This truck is a great example of the versatility of our ISIS Intelligent Multiplex System.  They were able to easily wire a complicated vehicle with a lot of electrical demands.  It took less time and less wire to wire it plus they have a more flexible system.  As they need to add additional switched loads to the truck, they can simply add those outputs to their existing system. 

If you'd like to learn more about how ISIS can help you wire your car, truck or specialty vehicle, call our technical support team at (847) 232-1991. 

Updates on Factory Five GTM with ISIS Install

We got a few updates from one of our customers building a Factory Five GTM with a full ISIS Intelligent Multiplex System install.  He is using our 3-Cell Kit with our inTOUCH MAX touch screen in the dash and our inTOUCH Mobile so that he can control the car through his iPhone. 

Here is a good picture of his finished dash.  As you can see, the build quality is tremendous.  The focal point of the center console is our inTOUCH MAX touch screen.  This is his command center to control the car.  From the touch screen, he can start the car, control his lights and control the other ISIS powered functions. 

He also just posted a video of him popping his doors through his iPhone.  Our ISIS inTOUCH Mobile gives you unique capabilities to control your car through the iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.  Check this out.
