I currentyly have a series 1 rb25det in a 32 at the moment and i am doing an engine change on this and thinking of putting a rb25det series 2 engine from a 97 skyline.

I have mixed respones and mixed reactions from people on the forums and mechanics. Some say that you can put a Series 2 engine onto a Series 1 wiring loom/harness.

Can anyone confirm that this can be done otherwise i will need to source out a series 2 wiring loom/harness.

Is there any difference in the word wiring loom and wiring harness, different people use different words.

Can i series 1 wiring loom support a series 2 engine?

(Thinking the problem will be the coil packs since the wires on the series 1 go into the back of the engine where on series 2 there is a wire for each injectorm, is this correct?)

Any comments or help on this would be benefitical.

Cheers

harness is different as the series 1 has the little black box up the back... cant remember the name of it. ITs a sprak amplifier or something

Series 2 motor has the amplifier thingy on the actual coil packs themselves

which is totally different

yeah i realised that was the difference, i have heard that instead of connecting the plug to that little box up the back, you can run the 6 wires directly into the coil packs themselves?

Anyone tried this?

the coil pack wiring from the s1 unplugs and just plug in the s2 coil loom.

hrmm interesting....

I have a s1 motor and loom and recently purchased splitfire s2 coils.

The coil plugs on the s1 loom dont fit onto the s2 coils so i need to use s2 plugs instead. I also need to remove the ignitor (black box at the back) and wire the wires into the coil loom.

    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, i will do abit more digging. I am missing a blue relay near the ECU connector... so i will chase that up in the next few days as well  
    • https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
