I just bought an R32 and it came with no head unit, the guy pulled it out just before he put it up for sale. I bought a head unit today and started reading up on installing it myself (helped with my previous VL install), but I seem to have different coloured wires to the wiring guide .

I dunno if it has been re wired, but I seem to be missing green and pink wires with the addition of a few other colours. Is there any way other then tracing them to the speakers to work out what is what? There seems to be a few of the same coloured blue ones too :S

If worst comes to worst I dont mind paying someone to do it, but id rather learn myself. Any ideas?

Thanks for the input guys.

I think it must have been rewired at some stage, because all the colours are different to standard. I worked out what the 12+ battery and 12+ ignition were, so I have power to my head unit (it looks sick:P ) but now i need to figure out which speakers are which.

The wiring harness, although it is the same as the oem, wasnt rewired the same way, which i learnt when working out the power cables. I trialed quite a few combinations but couldnt get any sound to come out of my speakers (it was trying 2 cables in with all the different other cables).

Im not sure if the factory amplifier needs to be connected, and if it does i have no idea which cable it is (or what it goes to on my head unit), is there any way to work this out? Also is there any way to work out the speaker cable pairs?

hey mate, i have the same problem for my r34 and it looks like we have the same coloured wires,

do you mind telling me which wires stand for what exactly please?

thanks in advance,

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.   EDIT:  Not my channel but i saw this and i know that is what i want (and i have exactly this)  
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
