Looking at re-wiring the car and replacing all the individual looms. Any suggestions of decent auto-electricians or companies that do this? Did have two options but both are unable to do so in the near future.

Cheers,

Dan

A skyline. Dude thats a massive job and wiring will never match up to factory codes

You can buy kits from rocket industrie that cover a large amount of stuff for a basic car or race car

But to do a line ? Why would you unless you had a new oem harness

In short without going through all the details, re-wiring the engine-bay while the car is getting a re-spray and the engine is out. Had a few issues with the way 2-3 workshops have wired it up in the past so deciding to get 'disgusting' wiring done properly. Did have someone lined-up but unfortunately his co-partner is retiring leaving him to run the normal everyday business and not focus on complete cars.

Cheers 4door - can you pm the contact details? (or I'll just find the online/on here)

I know Simon Michelmore does this - not sure if he will do it for a 'non-friend' (ie. he doesn't have a business as such), but you never know .... https://www.facebook.com/simon.michelmore.7?fref=ts

I done this myself for my toyota,

Got a ARC 8000 switch panel and a 4000 switch panel. Wired up a positive to everything that needed power and a switch job done.

Loom for engine on the other hand that was a bit more work.

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
