Hey guys,

I have no headlights, taillights, indicators, interior lights or dash lights. (battery light will come on when I switch the headlight switch - but will remain on until the battery is disconnected)

I do not have the two green ECU relays in currently..but have tested with friends and the same issue persists.

I have checked all under dash fuses...all good. Not sure about engine bay fuses though.

I have taken some photos of some plugs that I cannot find homes for..could you guys take a look at them and tell me what they are for?

THANKYOU FOR UNDERSTANDING I AM YOUNG AND THIS IS ALL PRETTY NEW TO ME HENCE I AM A CAR NOOB.

This splices out from the starter motor / alternator loom. Can't find anywhere to plug it into the alt?

These two plugs are coming out of the fuse box...no where for them to be plugged in?

These two plugs seem to be related to the headlights..but once again nothing to plug into?

These two plugs again seem to be near the headlights..any clue?

I believe one plug is for the power steering reservoir which has been cut on mine, but the other two don't seem to have a place?

Again, not sure what this plug does / where it goes.

This last plug looks important..but again no luck in finding where it goes. Help would be greatly greatly appreciated please :D

Fuark Maaate - good luck. Shoulda kept walking and kept your money.

Grab someone who has a 32 GTS-t and experience to help spend time sorting it. Park side by side

Who ever did that mess should of labelled when pulling plugs n cables etc...

Rusty as.

Good experience tho

Ps. Some plugs don't have a mate

The car was a rolling shell. I haven't touched any of the body loom..but I have put the engine loom and engine in myself.

Oh and as for the rust, that's the only place in the whole shell that has rust, so I'm not worried. Already got a plate to tack in there.

Green cable looks like the one connected to the ignition barrel. The one off it could be for the Ring that lights up the barrel ?

The one near the fuse box is that for consult ?

In Picture 1 and 2 you seem to be missing a resistor which attaches to the body.

Two of those plugs connect to it and a third which splices off it is not used.

Sort of like the Low impedance resistor for the injectors on the RB26

Cheers thanks man. I took two more pics.

First pic is another plug that I have no bloody clue what it is. I somehow missed it before. Any idea?

Second pic is where that resistor is supposed to go. Doesn't look like anything has ever been there on this car, although it could be mounted further back.

PS. Thanks for helping man, I really appreciate it.

I made a quick video that might explain the problem a little bit better.

So basically, no ignition lights or power to anything else in the car. Windows, all lights, indicators.

Car will turn over when key is turned, but fuel pump is not priming and possibly no spark. Is it possible this is being caused by something that isn't earthed? I have tried looking for all earths and grounding them to the chassis / engine.

The silver resister box is the resistor for the air reg. Air reg will close from engine bay heat anyway.

The plugs under the steering column, where you're holding one wire, I'm guessing you've got a turbo timer loom there.

If so I'd chuck the turbo timer and associated plug-in-loom, then things will look much better.

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.

      Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention

      So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34

      From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
