Hi,

Currently one of my mates had a Series 2 RB25DET motor in his car that melted 2 pistons so we have gone out and bought an RB25DET from an R34 GTST to replace it.

We only got the long motor and coil packs, so we swapped the S2 plenum and turbo onto the new motor (along with all the oil pressure switches) and got everything in the car again looking exactly the way it was, and we went to start it and there was no spark...

My mate runs a microtech and when we cranked it over it had no RPM signal which leads me to beleive that the R34 CAS and the R33 CAS are different and we need to re-wire that as you cant swap them over as the R33 CAS has a star that goes into the cam and the R34 has a half mooned that goes into the cam...

Also while doing this the neo coil packs somehow melted themselves (im assuming because the wiring between the R33 and R34 is different) so we are stuck on what do do with the coil packs as the R33 coil packs dont exactly fit the NEO motor...

Now my main questions are:

- What are the EXACT wiring differences between the R33 and R34 CAS in regards to pins?

- What are the EXACT wiring differences between the R33 and R34 coil pack arrangement? And if there is a way to use the R33 coil packs on a R34 motor what is it?

Any help will be GREATLY appreciated and thanks for reading a really long post!

Further to the PM I sent you..

R33 CAS wiring:

x x x x

1 2 3 4

R34CAS wiring:

x x x x

4 3 2 1

Just reverse the CAS wiring and it'll work.

As for the coil packs I'm not 100% sure what's happened.

    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
    • You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
