Hey,

So I've gone down the common path of putting a rb25 into my 1990 originally turbo auto R32.

BUT all most every guide on Wiring it in that i find is to suit a Series 1 engine. I have a series 2 and there are differences.

Main one of which being that you don't have to power up the injectors at the main engine wiring plug as you do with a series 1.

My problem is however NOT making it start as i have already sussed that out but rather making my WindScreen wipers work...

I have followed all these Guides about providing a 12V ING to the Blue/red wire, connecting the Orange wire to the orange wire in the 32

dash loom and grounding the Black/white splottched cable at the plug near the plug that plugs into the wiper motor.

But nothing happens... no wipers for me :thumbsup:

Can anyone solve this problem?

Does the power for the computer etc. have to be connected for the wipers to work?

Does the computer have to be pluged in?

Also Can anyone shed light on how to make the VCT work? How to provide power?

Thanks ALOT guys any help will be much appriciated.

Cheers

When I got my 25 I lucked out and it had a plug and play harness w/ it. Im thinking of making a few, if there was any interest.

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
