Rb20det Conversion Into Hr30 Coupe

[r30kansai]

Hey people, just finished my conversion and am starting to work out the little bugs and also make it look standard for engineer blue slip etc.

Any idea on how to get the tacho to work with the RB20 (previous motor L20ET)?

And my speedo isn't reading correctly plus it seems to have developed a wobble, any ideas?

[r30kansai]

Also I forgot to ask how to get the speed to my ecu?

[r30kansai]

R30 BUMP!!!

what gear box did you use?? the speed sensor is in that and if you used the matching box for the rb20 then it should already get the speed signal to the ECU?

the was also a work shop in SA Jaustech that did this conversion years ago they might have the info you are after.

Used the RB20 gearbox, not sure if the ECU is getting speed or not, any idea on how to get the tacho going?

there would be a resistor required to get the signal, i ended up getting a monster tacho in the end.

have a look in the r31skyline forum in a few days (website down for a few days at the moment) as they have info on getting the tacho working with rb20/25 conversions

Did you go with the monstor tacho due to hooking up the standard was to hard?

[rsx84]

seemed like the simplest fix at the time, i did the rb20det silver top conversion 4 years ago now and at that time it was hard enough to find someone to wire up the engine let alone the tacho.

[r30kansai]

Yeah I can sympathise with you there, I did all the work except the wiring, I had to get my mechanic to do that and even then I had to help him.

i sent my wiring off to castlemain auto elecs, i think its near rod hadfield, or maybe the same mob. they will make any wiring loom into a universal one so you can easily wire it into your car. i found them real good and helpful, they are a bit

expensive but they do good work.

Did you get the standard tacho to work though?

[skybt1]

yep! without any hassle. Just wired in the one wire to the tacho.

What they do is modify the loom off the new motor to suit your car.

They give you wiring diagrams and everything.

You wouldn't still have the wiring diagram would you?

I'll give you a few bucks for a copy.
