Hey fellow Skylineians. Recently getting my RB20DET engine from my R32 converted to a R33 RB25DE engine, everything is going well but had my excitement flushed away as i have come up with a wiring issue. Apparently there is a white plug/adaptor thing near the ECU of the R32 that is different from the plug from the newer R33 loom. Attatched is a picture of the white plug/adaptor from the R33 loom that doesn't fit to the R32 plug. How did you guys resolve this problem? Or is there anyone is VIC (preferably SE Melbourne) that can fix this? Thanks in advanced.

the r33 plug has to be cut off your new loom and mated to the plug from the r32 old loom. Ive had to do this a few times now. Its easier to do before the engine loom goes into the car.

i can help out with this if u like.

REALLY? Awesome, do you work at RE Customs or are you separate?

hey mate im currntly working on my R33 had some wiring issues but had ova come it

Bets advice is to get the Right Looms for Your ECU. :P

if You need help PM ur Number and might help u outt

Thanks for the replies guys, i'm thinking of sending the looms to BH_SLO32 for plug n play. Hopefully i can get it back and slowly try rewire. PM you guys later if it's too much to handle lol :P

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
