Just wondering if someone can help me out. I bought an L28E which someone had transplanted into an R30 skyline. Im currently fitting the engine to my 260z and am currently trying to wire the thing up. Thing is, from everything I've seen, the loom doesnt appear to be a std L28E item (from what I have seen of others anyway). Maybe its the L24E item? here is a pic of some of the wiring http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/attachm...tachmentid=7153

I do have more pics if this one does not suffice. Does anyone have any L24E wiring schematics/ECU pinouts?

Cheers

Ray

I've got one, but only in paper form (I could fax it tomorrow). From memory Oz spec R30 and 280ZX wiring is very similar.

Problem with relying on US sites for info like this is that some of the wiring for their cars can be different to ours (ours is usually simpler...)

Just did some searching and came across some schematics for the L24E...

Does it seem like I am looking at an L24E loom though ?

ECU connector looks like L24E type....but then L28E type looks the same....

I have an L24E loom in the garage (as well as a US spec L28E ECU....and a local L24E ECU....I think)

Interesting...there are actually a few different evolutions in the L28 items (especially the US as they had them over a 8 odd year period) so afaik you cant just go switching and swapping ECUs.

EDIT: Yes the ECU connectors look the same, Im more interested in the wires coming from the loom before the firewall. I havent found an L28 loom that looks just like that as of yet.

i would guess that any wires exiting the main loom INSIDE the firewall..ie in the car not the engine bay.....are probably nothing to worry about......could be things like switching the aircon compressor off if the car stalls or something like that...ide worry more about the ones IN the engine bay.

The ones in the engine bay are no worries thus far.

After checking over the diagram some of the ones inside were pretty important. i.e fuel pump relays, EFI relays etc. I think I have most of it sussed out.

Am still not 100% sure what ECU/loom I have. It seems to be almost the same as the R30 from looking at the R30 wiring diagrams, but there are differences which make me wonder.

Hmm.....odd...my r30 computer wiring harness had NOTHING exiting the loom in side the cabin....only reason the loom came in at all was to keep the computer out of the rain....Hence my previous comments

    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
    • On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next
