Keen to know what the resistance valves for the dash gauge are for the rb25 are. Ive put a 25 into my 32 and i cant get the dash gauge to work... its all hooked up to the right wire. Have had the motor running for quite some time and the temp gauge just wont move.

So the single pin blue/black wire that goes to the dash.. what reading does it out out at cold temps and at operating temps.. does anyone know?

Ever consider the sender might be kaput? Have you tried using the sender from your old RB20?

To confirm the gauge works (which presumably it did before), try earthing the sender wire (with IGN = ON) - if its the same as for oil pressure, the temp gauge should go to "full scale".

already done that, thats how i know the wiring is right since i earthed out the connector from the sender (took it off first) and the gauge reads full. sensor may be busted... but i have had the multi meter on the sender and it reads around 150 ohms resistance with the motor running for about 15 mins... so i have no idea if that means operating temp or what... since the dash gauge reads full with 0 ohms... so i assume the lessere the reading the hotter the temp?

    • The Frenchy's kit is the way to go forward. A modern compressor that weighs about 1/2 as much, is at least twice as efficient, and will do a good job on R134a. And of course the kit has everything else you need to connect it up and have it work properly.
    • Hey all , I am in the process of having the AC system in my r32 GTST converted from r12 to r134a and I’m being told my compressor has gone bad and I will need a new one. I was wondering if anybody has any suggestions for what is the best route to go aside from dropping $1500 on a new oem one? I did see that Frenchy’s performance garage offers a kit to mount a Toyota compressor, has anybody actually used this kit on their car? Or is there anywhere I could purchase just a clutch? Any help is appreciated.
    • Well, your RB20 ECU loom won't have wires for the boost solenoid, that boost sensor, and possibly one or two other things. There could be differences in seemingly random things like the charcoal canister purge solenoid, because the 25DET has to handle boost in the vacuum system and the 20DE does not. I don't know - I haven't looked. It is very likely that all the most important things are same-same, being the main sensors like AFM, CAS, etc, and the injectors and ignition. Not that you'll need the AFM for the Haltech anyway. I would suggest that you would seriously want to sit down with the pinouts for both ECUs and just go through them and highlight green what is the same, orange what is different/missing, and make a plan from there. It's not going to be difficult. It will either be the same or need to be fixed.
    • yeaaa that's why I haven't done any wiring to the stock ecu harness because I have the haltech, but then that leads me to the other question of "is the pnp harness really plug and play?" or would I have to still switch some pins/wires over because the pnp is for the rb25det neo harness, and not for the rb20de neo harness. was really hoping to find something to spoon feed me since so many people have done rb20neo + t conversions, but man this is rough.
