Hi everyone

i have a r33 rolling shell missing engine, gearbox and harness. I have just purchased a r34 crashed with the neo mtor. Now i have been doing research but i am wanting to use the R34 harness in the 33. Can someone please give me some guidance as alot of the threads are bit all over the place.

also can and aftermarket plenum from the older 25 go onto a neo head, they have the same intake manifold gasket, any help in regarding this conversion will be greatly appreciated.

Have a look at my thread, mine is running but with all S2 R33 wiring. There's a bit of work needed to splice the 34 engine loom into the 33 body loom. 33 wiring was the easiest option.

Yeah, can run aftermarket inlet manifold for non-Neo RB25's on the Neo.

cheers for the reply

i was keen on using the 34 loom but yeh i think will be harder, gotta link for that thread? couldnt find it

Um....you have no loom in the R33. The only sensible option is to use the R34 loom. With the engine out you can make the various changes more easily. You might want to buy an R33 loom to be able to obtain some of the plugs.

i got no problem buying another loom im just curious to which is the easiest way as a few guys have different opinions i just wanna know whats involved for both

I did Neo into R32. The Neo loom went in, having had all the mods done on the bench beforehand. Sure, I got a guy who knows what needs to be done to make all the mods, but you could do the same.

yes im thinking of doing myself just not 100% on the wiring

Here's my thread. Was easier for me since I already had the engine loom. Didn't consider splicing the looms because I couldn't find any info regarding wiring so just stuck the with R33 engine loom.

    • 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?
