gday all, I just put a RB20 box into the 31 and used the 20 electric speedo drive since the R31 one was rooted. Now the 20 drive has a 2 pin plug that does not match the 3 pin plug of the 31 drive so i cut them of and soldered the wires together.

However the RB20 drive has two wires, a Black and a Green while the 31 loom has 3 wires, black, red and a yellow (with a blue wire further up tapped into the red wire) So i wired the Black to black and Red to the green on thge loom to the RB20 drive.. and just taped up the yellow wire.

Now the speedo does not work until about 40 kph, where the needle suddenly works and reads very inaccuratally (at 60 kph it says 140 kph)

any idea's what i need to do to make it work, or should i just get a 31 speedo drive.

Cheers

Simon

if i were u, id take off the gearbox connection, hook a multimeter up to the wires and spin the little nob in the gearbox connector by hand to see what output the wires have...

u mite see that the red/black combo puts out current in one "spinning" range and the black/yellow in another... i.e. u may need to connect both the red/yellow onto the green...

BUT this is just my thoughts...

    • Dredgggggeeee time; I have recently finally started driving the car. It sat for so long that the fuel tank gave birth to rust sludge and blocked my lift pump sock and one of my walbro 460's and left grime, rust chunks and muck all through the surge tank and system. I decided to commit and pull the trigger on an oem r32 gtr fuel tank and Frenchys twin 460 / sender / surge tank hanger combo and all new larger lines and fittings etc, also boost doc heater hose kit / new heater core and a heap of other bits and shits like wideband sensor installed in the dump and Syltech iacv + lines and all wired and added to current tune. now having lightly driven it a couple times without issue, I can happily report on the hta3076 in its current tune. still no boost control switched on, 20psi gate springs, car makes 22psi at 3200rpm in 6th gear with 30-50% TPS from cruise at 100kmh. Going by the old graph, this means it should be making 300-325whp at the same numbers above. Very very responsive setup under true road driving loads. all that's left for the build is body loom + PDM, finish the remote aircon setup, install carbon fibre parts and go for full tune and 30psi. the 315 rear tyres are now performing like they're 195's, wheel spin in any gear at almost any rpm, whereas my previous setup hooked up in 3rd no issue, albeit Nt01's back then / RB25 5spd vs (new) old date r888r's Z34 6spd now, + obviously all the support upgrades I listed in the quoted post above. car sits at 1-3psi on cruise at 100kmh, expectations totally exceeded and I'm beyond stoked with all this so far.

    • I've also been eyeing their rear axles for my car. I purchased seat mounts from them about 7 years ago and they were hot garbage so I've been a little wary about purchasing them. With that being said, please buy them and get back to us haha. 
    • Can a moderator please move this into the right category.. I've accidently put this into racing build thread 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Being a manual, we very quickly ordered new R34 gearbox (From Nissan) and remaining parts from Kudos motorsports. Would highly recommend the team there. Ultra helpful and quick to share advice and upgrades. We are in the middle of taking the Auto out (Genuine 94,000/kms) and putting the Manual in this weekend. Part 2 of the build will include likely a Plazaman Intercooler and Plenium, Hks Exhaust with Tomei Dump (ordered).
