Link vi-pec expansion

Hi everyone. 

I have done a few searches on here and Google but am unable to find any diagrams that explain how to wire up the expansion cable for air temp sensor map sensor and wideband can lambda. 

I'm fairly handy at doing things on engines and wiring so please no negative reply

Having said that the simplest diagram for idiots is often the best for everyone for anyone else who is trying to do this down the track. 

If anyone has or can put up the information i need it would be much appreciated. 

My ecu is a vi-pec plugin r34gtt and engine is a 25/30 neo in a lc gtr torana. 

I have build thread on here for engine and i think there is some pics of the car in that thread too.

Thank you in advance.

Have you looked on the Link website? As I recall (it was a few years ago) you take the lid off the ecu and there is a terminal to push it on and you need to snip the casing to allow access to the wiring (unless I am confusing it with the cable for the display) - I think the instructions came with the cable - but otherwise you can email or phone  them for tech support. Or skype but probably not on the weekend

Never used a link before but my advice is that if you really aren't sure about wiring, pay a professional to do it. It might cost but at least it will be done right and you won't have a problem with it in future. Chasing wiring troubles is the worst.

Oh good, excuse my scepticism. Assuming you have a link branded exp cable, your yellow wire (PIN7) going to expansion port 1 is an output, not an input. Just going by what the software says.

 

Would hate someone to find incomplete information. Unless of course, the hardware has changed from whatever vipec you have to whatever the current link is.

    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
