Hello there, I have a problem.

The wires that connect to the neutral and reverse switch in the gearbox of my R32GTS4 (same and an R32GTR) are missing. This means that my reverse lights don't come on when I am reversing which is an issue fo rego. I can't really see where the wires are meant to go; though I am guessing that they join the engine loom somewhere around the alternator. I need help can anyone

a. confirm where these wires connect to the loom

b. confirm which wires in the loom connect to which wires on the switches

Thanks, Ben 0411 243 284.

Dude i Have the same problem , ever since i got my clutch replaced i have had not reverse lights, Could you please post up a pic so i can see where the wires run from to the switch so i can fix mine, this would be awesome if you could help.

Hi Zardo, I have attached a picture from the R32GTR workshop manual with the reverse switch circled. I am guessing that they have forgotten to plug yours in properly when they put the gearbox back. I can't tell you exactly where the wires are going because that is my question. I think my wires got caught up on my front driveshaft and got pulled out. I have the switches, but don't know where they are going. If you get under your car to check that your switches are plugged in, maybe you could take a look at where the wires are going and what colour wires plug into your reverse switch?

This picture is pretty self explanitory after you have taken a look under your car. Essentially the neutral and reverse switches are located near the top of the driver's side of your gear box. If you get under the car and locate the front drive shift coming from the gearbox you will notice that these are just above there - quite difficult to get your hands to!

Thanks. Also, if its possible while you are down there; can you please tell me what colour wires on the car side of the connectors are plugging into the a. neutral switch and b. revese switch (or a. the switch on the rear side of the car and b. switch on the front side of the car)? It woudl be a massive help as I have nothing at all there!

These are the wires that I have hanging out which I assume are for the neutral and reverse switches. Can anyone confirm that these should be them. Not that this picture is of the driver's side of the engine under the plenum, you can see the alsternator in the back.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
