hi guys im just seeing if any ne can help me. i have a 200sx with an rb26dett and it is currently running an ems stinger which is designed for a four cylinder not a six. so ive bought an rb26dett standard computer, afms and a engine harness. im a little lost on how i power up the computer as the ems was powered by a relay. im guessing at the end of the standard harness there are 6 plugs do i have to power these wires up to make this car run????

ive also got an engine harness diagram and an ecu pin out diagram, it states that pin58 is battery power (unswitched) is this just battery positive??? and pin 59 is power supply via eccs relay, dose this mean i need to fit a realy and run it off ign on???

so basically i need to know how to power up the standard ecu and earth it out.

any help would be great thanks guys

done lots of RB26's into S series cars. Cause yours is a 200sx you are best of using a r33 gtr loom. If you have an R32 one you will need to strip the power wires out of the std 200sx loom and wire them into the r32 one if you want it neat and plug and play.

I reckon if your not confident in auto electrics and circuits then maybe pay someone to do it, the std ecu remapped will be good for whatever upgrades you do in the future.

so i mounted the harness today plugged every thing in except the coil pack harness as i have to wire new plugs onto it, turned the key and i have reds but no fuel pump noise. done some searching and found the earth output of the fuel pump on the sr20det computer is black yellow trace so with a test light i earthed it out and the fuel pump came alive :banana:

i just want to know what wire i use off the standard rb26dett harness to wire this fuel pump wire too???

and then i need to work out how im going to power this standard rb26 computer to run the car ie what wires need power for it to light up.

STATUS i rang around were i live to get someone to wire it one guy wanted 1400 which i thought was a joke and two other places didnt want a bar of it. so im given it a go myself ill keep you all updated on how i go.

by the way to clarafy yes im running two computers the sr20 one runs the car ac lights ect and the rb26 one runs the engine only. i know this is stupid but this is how it was when i bought it but had the ems instead.

why the hell do you need 2x ECUs?

I wired up a RB20DET to a CA18DET harness, go look at my link. Also don't be stupid enough to earth your fuel pump, in the event of a crash and your motor stalls the fuel pump is going to be pumping continuously, very dangerous if a line is severed.

Do it properly, if you can't do it pay someone to do it.

    • 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
