Hello guys

Just last week I wrecked my ECR33 drifting at the track.......... fast forward a few days and I have a new HR33 with my old engine set.

the only difference I see is the small junction box above the ecu location on the HR33 only has one spot for the big plug and that's it. The small clip next to it reminds me of the body wiring loom for the s13.. this was blank as well when removing the HR33 engine harness.. I cut the small clip that fits into that location on the HR33 off of the ECR33.... If its similar to the s13/14... that is just for your gauge cluster.

basically my injectors which worked before the swap are not clicking when cranking or turning CAS by hand. I have not check spark yet as it was getting late and had to go to work in 3 hours. I am getting plenty fuel. Ill try another CAS after work.

anyone done this swap and if so what were any issues if any?

ps

running PFC not issues at all after the crash.

there was nothing to patch. swapped the entire engine with harness over and every plug was plugged up. engine ran fine before the swap. the only thing disconnected are the grounds and power source amongst the obvious things to remove the engine.

no spark at all.

I used 3 CAS, 1 set of coil packs and 3 ignitors today.

been reading up on possible relay issues.... I directly powered and grounded the relay still nothing. Ill figure something out... events are coming up fast.

So your engine and loom is from a series 1 but is the donor a series 1 or 2? The power feed for the injectors is different and the series 2 doesn't have relay to switch the coils on like the series 1. The power feed to the switching side of the relay is missing in the series 2 loom.

no sir my engine is a S1. I fixed the issue about 2 hours ago

I had to power the injectors and cut the thick white wire on the relay next to the ecu and hook power up to the other wire not connected to the relay.

    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
