Hey all,

Im trying to install the steering wheel controls and ive connected the 12v wire for the LEDs. The 3 wires that come out the back of the clock spring i have the following questions.

1. To these wires come out behind the stereo to connect to or should i cut them at the clock spring.

2. The sony control plug has red, white& black wires but the clock spring has red, yellow & green. Does it matter what colours i attach to to allow the steering wheels to fuction properly and does anyone have a match up guide for this.

id say as a mass produced car with many options. one loom was made with many connectors for the many options available. cost/time. will be following as i have steering wheel controls that come to plug behind stereo just cant get them to work with my head unit

Ok so think i have worked it all out

Black - Yellow (earth)

Red - Green (imput 2)

White - Red (input 1) green in picture

That looks right from what I recall, as long as your head unit can handle resistive controls and you can teach it what the buttons do you're all good. If not you'll need an Axxess ASWC-1 or PAC SWI etc.. adaptor. I grabbed an ASWC-1 when i was going to drop a single DIN cheapy in but ended up going a different route.

Cheers mate. I saw that the other day but with mine being a double din i may not need that control box. Once i get a break from the long work hours/daddy duties ill know a little more. Ill take alot of photos throughout the process for a quick writeup with double din (sony) for future installs.

Ok. I have found my error. I cut one of the unit control sensors (white) instead of a led earth (pink) as per commsman's write up as my unit did not have this wire. I have recently added in a wire to earth it out. I have tested once i discoverd and corrected the issue and it works with my sony double din without the control box as per last post. So here are some pictures for reference. (No i will not be leaving the wiring like that.... it was to test. 90dbd6e1ddcffd7acd14b1a2945e2464.jpg7334c43d2567627aecd017003b9cbe07.jpgb2b9f4aff0729dac6edda2f24fba0485.jpg5b10fe5874788de19bdaf8ab64a22762.jpg5a7a603ac8a5d88a964862caca7be883.jpg

Good to see you have it figured out

That might be what i need to do with mine. As soon as i would plug connector in back of stereo it would turn off. I have an earth wire just floating about. I really dont want to be pulling all the car apart again done it 5 times since purchase haha

The plug is there. Mine was taped to the main harness out of the way. The yellow wire is the earth as per previous posts. Turns out my 2 units are not LED but as i have it working im not too fussed.

      A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?

      So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...

      the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
