Decided to have a look at my ECU and it's wiring since I was unsure if anything had been done to it by previous owners. I have noticed that there are a couple wires been spliced into. One main one that has 2 wires spliced into it is YELLOW with GREEN stripe. Now I have found the R34 ECU pinouts from this site and from what I can figure out is that it is the Vehicle Speed Sensor Signal at terminal 29. If this is in fact correct, could I use the wire that isn't connected (Photo - Blue wire) and connect it to my Greddy Ful Auto Timer to get the full functions from it? The manual for that say's that it needs to be connected to the Speed wire, which I assume is what this is. The other thing that has me interested is the big Brown Plug in the photo. It has a cover on it which seems to bridge the pins when it is on. Could this be for a piggyback unit of some kind form a previous owner? If so, anyone know what it fits? Also, one other thing that I noticed is that with my Aerial's for my radio (These are hard strips running either side of my front window), the one on my drivers side also seems to be wired into the same wire that I was talking about first up. The Yellow/Green wire. Any ideas on this one?

Anyone in the wide bay area that has a series 2 that would be willing to have a look to compare? Or could someone post up pics of their ECU Wiring?

Thanks

Dave

did you buy the car from a private sale or was it imported in

if it was a private sale - give the guy a call and ask (no harm in that), If he did have a piggyback on it then your halfway there (as in you have the connections for it already) but i would check and make sure the connections where they are spliced are good

It was a private sale. I just got off the phone to the guy that I bought it off and he has no idea if it did or didn't. He knows it didn't have one when he first bought it but that's not to say it didn't have one in Japan. He was the first Aussie owner.

if that is the "vehicle speed sensor" it is the rpm signal, very common to splice into it. no way to tell what it was for though.

the brown plug is just the "common earth" just provides a stable earth for all of those wires.

    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
