Hope you have big pockets its not a cheap excersise even just the engine bay would be 2500+

Edit - Forgot the important bit lol

Just about any Auto Electrical place could do it, so grab the yellow pages out and "let your fingers do the walking" or whatever the slogan used to be

I would have a crack but don't really have the time at the moment, there's a guy Dave that works in the shop next to me (Gibbs Auto Electrical) he's been in the trade for a long time and has done a fair few wiring jobs. Zebra is right, its a very costly exercise, unless you're turning into a show car or stripping it for track duties and wanting everything hidden, id just fix whatevers faulty.

But if you've got the coin then go for it! PM me for a quote :happy:

What about just finding out what connectors are broken and compiling a list, then take it to a nissan dealership or wrecker or donor car.

replacing connectors is hell cheaper than the whole loom

also is there a specific loom section that is really bad? many ecu manufacturers can supply a 'raw' loom for around the $400 mark, you just need all the connectors and lots of protective tubes/heatshrink/lekkie tape

Ive built about 10 wiring looms in the last few years, very time consuming. If you can narrow it down to a certain area on teh car I may be able to help moar?

Id ask nissan for a cost reference (make sure you research the exact part #s before you ask otehrwise they wont take you seriously) for the engine harness, engine bay loom, dash harness, and the remaining interior harnesses.

I wouldnt expect that you'd get much change out of 10k for the lot as new genuine parts which would then be a case of strip ther interior etc and remove every harness to replace with the new ones...

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • 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 🍻
