Where To Get My Difi Guages Hooked Up..?


Recommended Posts

what guages have you got?

you'll need to make sure you have:

1 - the actual sensor (eg. oil temp sensor)

2- wire to conect the sensor to the control unit

3 - wire to connect the gauge to the control unit

if the control unit's already wired in then it will be very simple to get the guages happening...

man thats too cheap especially if you know what you are doing.

i am on your side of town will do it for $120 an hour with a minimum charge of 1 hour

:dry:

Just make sure you provide your trade qualifications and prove you are covered by insurance, in case you fark up and fry the electrics.

Hell if you are charging w/shop rates i would want it done professionally at a w/shop. :(

$80?? $120??

At those rates, go see an auto-elec Mark.

I still have the manual in pdf form somewhere.

PM me your email address & I'll find it & send it.

My suggestion is you get a switch put in incase the cops hassle you.

Hope the 34's going well!

Mark,

Here ya go:

I think it was a Link Controller II.

Go to page 27 for the wiring diag for this - lists colour of wires, etc.

If you need connectors, maybe go to Jaycar with the control box & ask them. If they don't sell them, they will know who would.

:0)

Go to an autoelec they charge more than $120 an hour and why do most people with japanese cars or anything difficult like conversions ecu's stay away from auto elecs?

because they charge heaps even if they don't get it running and most of the time its not done right

shut the f**k up if you have no idea because good people don't fry electrics because they don't f**k up. and if they do they don't charge you to fix like most.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
