S1 RB25DET to RB26 Wiring info

Recommended Posts

Sorry about the repost but I figured this title was more accurate. I've searched a bunch but haven't found the info I'm looking for so I'm starting this thread.

Is there a post or diagram showing the wiring changes needed to put a RB26 in a S1 RS4 Stagea? (please provide link or file)

Is there a post or diagram showing how to use a factory S1 260RS engine harness in an S1 RS4 Stagea? (please provide link or file)

Does someone make an ECU adapter harness so go from S1 RB25DET to RB26DET?

Information I can share so far:

Factory 260RS harness is similar to the RSV harness but is missing the Black and White connectors behind the LH headlight and the wiring is different at the connectors near the ECU.

RSV harness lacks the wiring / connections for the following:

Second O2 sensor

Second MAF wiring

Intake decel valve

 

Any help is always appreciated!

When you swap the engine, you swap in the engine looms and ECU as well.  Therefore the things you've listed above won't be an issue.

What you do have to deal with is differences in where the engine loom plugs into the body loom near the ECU, the engine loom to the engine bay loom near the power steering reservoir and probably also the engine sub loom that goes under the plenum.

Sorry, I don't have specifics of the differences, you might need to use the gtr engine loom wiring from the R32 gtr manual and a multimeter on the car to work out the differences

@Duncan thanks for the reply.

That was my original plan, use the 260RS engine harness (I have all 3 pieces) and sort out the interior plugs.

What I ran into that worried me was the 2 plugs behind the LH headlight that aren't on the 260RS harness. They have some heavy gauge wire in them. I noticed the R33 GTR harness has them though?

Do you have a copy of the 33 manual in English?

I have the front end/ fuse box harness from the 260 also if I need to go that far.

    • Thanks for all the replies! I also wanted to ask if wheels that were fitted on Ford Falcons would fit the 350GTs as well? In the area I'm at there aren't that many options for secondhand wheels and new ones here are way out of my budget. From what I've seen, most of the wheels that are available that were fitted on Ford Falcons have an offset of +33 to +36, with a centre bore of 70.5mm whereas the stock 350GT's ones are 66mm, can't seem to find any hubcentric rings that fit that difference though. 
    • 215/45/18 tyres are probably a little on the low side compared to the factory tyre, it should be closer to a 245/45/19, which will get you about an extra 11mm of height, and should make you speedo read a bit closer to reality. 245/45/19s will be a bit too far the other way and you risk a speeding ticket as your speedo might read slower than your actual speed.  245/40/19s would be correct if you are going to 19in rims, they will give you a similar total diameter to the 245/45/18 tyres.  
    • That's something I forgot to put in my list. The aggressive anti-squat in R32 is a f**king menace. I still need to decide if I'm going to drag the subframe out of my car and weld in the GKTech corrector kit. The main reason to dither is the need to switch to spherical joints in the lower arm to account for the twist induced in the rear pivot caused by lowering the front pivot. And yes...we do put better subframes in R32s, and I wish I'd gotten an S14 one instead of an A31 when I did the "take off and nuke it from orbit" HICAS delete all those years ago.
    • I have been looking at some setting on the alarms for the Q60 and what buttons do and so and also been looking for details on the alarm in my V37 which is a standard issue with the car. settings like window roll up and a few others seem to not work at all. i cant seem to find exact info on V37 alarms so Q60 is all i can really go off i have not tried 400Z alarm settings or info yet so that will be next. any one got like a sheet of info on the alarm system in the V37 as all my documents are in japanese but i thought the system would basically be like standard through similar models? 
    • I had a fuel smell coming from the drivers rear and pulled the tank out to inspect where it was coming from, turns out the breather hose from the tank to the filler neck was perished. I’m going to Japan next week and I’ll grab it while I’m there  pulled the oil tank apart and started cleaning this crap out of it, some brake cleaner and rags got it looking new again
