Plan and wire your car like it actually matters.
Pin87 is a wiring-first ecosystem of tools, videos, and diagrams built for real cars in real garages. No fluff, no gatekeeping— just the stuff you wish existed 10 years ago.
Starting with calculators & reference tools. The full app is on the way. pin87.org will be the home base for all of it.
Tools & mini apps
The Pin87 toolbox starts with calculators and reference tools you can actually use while you’re standing next to the car—no mysterious spreadsheets, no “trust me bro” advice.
Videos & tutorials
The Pin87 YouTube channel will walk through fundamentals, real-car examples, and the “why” behind every recommendation—so you aren’t just copying a harness, you’re actually understanding it.
Downloads & reference
PDF cheatsheets, diagrams, and printable guides that pair with videos and tools. These will live here as they’re created, so this page becomes the archive instead of your Downloads folder chaos.
Calder's Corner
A little space on the site reserved for experiments, side quests, and whatever random tech rabbit holes we fall into while building Pin87. This is where the odd stuff lives.
- Half-baked UI sketches for future Pin87 tools.
- Weird electrical experiments that didn’t fit a full video.
- Book, tool, and flashlight recommendations that actually get used.
- Design behind-the-scenes for how the app and videos are planned.
About Pin87
Pin87 is a long-term wiring project built by a working technician who got tired of watching people struggle with bad diagrams, random advice, and tools that feel like they were designed by a committee instead of someone who actually fixes cars.
The goal isn’t to impress other professionals—it’s to give normal people the tools and understanding to build and repair their own cars without burning them down or getting lost in forum noise.
Contact & updates
If you’re interested in the app, tools, or future wiring content and want to keep an eye on things, this is where you’ll find the official contact routes. As the project grows, this section will become more structured.
For now the plan is to keep communication simple: questions about tools, ideas for future videos, or potential collaborations can all route through a single inbox once it’s live.
As the YouTube channel and app roll out, this site will become:
- Home base for downloads and wiring references.
- Landing page for the Pin87 app and related tools.
- Index of projects like the FC RX-7 build.
- Spot where Calder’s Corner quietly gets weirder.
