Hi Guys,

I am trying to get all the bits and pieces together for an rb30det build. The car it is going into is an older skyline, so i am basically starting from nothing.

I bought an Rb25de engine (i THINK it is R33, as it looks to have the VCT hole in the head), which came with a cut up wiring loom and is probably missing a few sensors, and i bought an RB30E from an R31 skyline

I have also bought an RB25DET wiring loom, which i want to fit to the engine so that i can buy a cheap power-fc for tuning

my BIG question is, what sensors would i need to aquire to make the 25T loom work with the RB25DE?

thanks guys, i have spent hours searching the site for tidbits of info, but the only thing i have found so far is that a 2nd knock sensor may be required?

i'm in pretty much the same boat as you - research has led me to the conclusion that you will need either the DE OR DET sensors as they are all the same (water temp, knock sensors, AFM etc) so just grab some from an R33 and you should be right ;)

you will need both of the DET knock sensors (not fully necessary but good to have) and they will screw straight into the RB30 block.

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
