hey everyone. I found this wire dangling from under the dash and have yet to figure out where it comes from. Does anyone know what this wire connects to and where the other end might be?

If anything, I drive an R32 GTS-T, '93 model. more info can be supplied if needed, just not sure what will come in handy. Any help will be greatly appreciated! :P

Just because a piece of loom exists doesn't mean it has to be connected to anything. Many models might share the same loom segment, but only some actually connect something to every plug in the loom.

Looks after market.

One of the wires has an inline fuse in it...

Trace the other two wires, see where they lead. I'm wondering if they go upto the ignition (one is likely an earth)

I'm thinking it might be a turbo timer loom...

Thanks for the replies everyone. I'll try and trace it back and see where it comes from. Could it be anything related to the dash, such as the clock or even the tacho? Reason i ask is that ever since discovering this wire, the clock resets itself to 1:00 every time i start the car. The tacho also doesn't function anymore... :) One more thing, although the car is a GTS-T, it's been transplanted with an 25DE engine. Hopefully this extra info comes in handy to someone :thumbsup:

Looks after market.
That was my first impression. But you can't purchase wire with those tracer patterns in them - they are factory.

If the clock resets, then check the fuse hasn't blown.

    • 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
