Hi guys,

Just had my manual conversion done on the r33.

It works fine however when converting from r33 auto gearbox loom to manual one, few of the plugs are different and need to be re-wired because otherwise my oil pressure sensor, speedo, hicas/power steering and reverse lights dont work.

Has anyone on here done the conversion successfully and is able to show me what they've done with the wiring loom or if i can come past and have a look?

Kind of want to get this fixed up asap so i can drive the damn thing properly :bunny:

who did ya coversion for u??

Turbo Tune on South Rd. They've been more than helpful throughout the whole thing, did great work, just that Nissan plugs and looms don't match up as much as I was hoping and they're quite busy with other customers cars which is understandable.

Lol you offer that advice everytime someone has an issue with their car man,

Sometimes its about saving a bit of coin via a fellow SAU member offering some advice, sometimes its an easy fix and workshops DO rip people off with telling you they fixed something that wasn't the issue making it sound like a massive job because your non the wiser basically signing a blank cheque...

+1 but only worth doing it yourself if yu know what youre doing :wub:

I've got quite a good understanding with auto electrics so wiring isnt a problem.

Anyways ive been probing the automatic loom and found out that the plugs on the auto have different components connected to em compared to the same plugs in the manual loom. I think the best thing to do is to use the automatic loom and auto trans plugs but re wire them to work with the manual, that is isolate all the wires except reverse lights, inhibitor and speedo, and make a new loom that joins them together.

Dammit nissan... theres never an easy way out :P

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
