You dont need to splice into cluster signal, way too much f**king around if u ask me. This is what i did with my greddy fatt. Remove kick panel in passengers side to reveal ecu, splice into vehicle speed sensor wire for rpm signal for the timer. Ive uploaded an image so you can see which pin it is to trace the wire. Good luck.

I have a similar problem but in reverse.

I need to run a wire from pin #53 to the back of the cluster as my computer is not getting a speed signal.

Dont spose anyone could point this out for me ?

Thanks

Have you opened the cluster and checked the speed sensor is actually in there and not broken? Someone posted a couple good threads ages back about it all, you could try a search on my name and on speed sensor to see if you can find the post.

The wiring loom usually isn't the problem here....

Found your thread and it sorta helped.

My problem is actually because of my old alarm.

The old one had a built in turbo timer and was hooked into the speed sensor wire at the back of the dash.

When i got the new alarm installed obviously this was left out, hence my problem.

So now i assume i just have to re connect this wire with the wire from the ecu.

So would i be right in assuming the wire coming from pin #53 on the ecu (the speed sensor wire) which is yellow / green,

would be the same yellow / green wire which connects to one of the pins in the back of the dash ?

Also if i were to say cut this wire at both ends and re connect them with a new wire would this be ok ?

Cheers.

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
