Hey,

sorry not sure if i can post it here,

But i went to put my ecu into my car, and i decided to hook up my modified loom for the rb25 into the rb20 R32, i started hooking it up and then i found a plug in the footwell, i must have unplugged it and ive had a look around and cant see where it plugs in, can any1 tell me where it plugs in? and if it plugs in somewhere, i have added pics, the pic witht he single plug is the plug im talking about

Thanks JV

is that the plug for all the door wires?

dno, will check behind where the ecu normally sits, see if i can see a plug, it wouldnt be a diagnostics thing would it?, man its confuising me haha i dont even remember un plugging it, damn this is annoying, hopefully i can find the other half 2morrow,

I found a grey plastic block with about 10 wires going into it so (naturally) took it apart to see if it was a left over from some sort of piggy back device but noticed that all the wires were joined inside - turns out its some kind of common earth.

Nothing I would worry about. My manual R32 has the same. I can't remember if the auto RB20 looms have an additional plug or not or whether the RB26 has an additional plug but the important thing is the 3 main plugs from the loom are connected so if you have a manual you should be fine. :P

I assume your car was originally non-turbo?

nar man, car was always turbo, i just blew up a new rb20 that i put in cause the valves stuck down on start up (didnt crank by hand) so i had to gain something out of screwing around with all the engines, so i went rb25 motor, gearbox and diff, but yeah if this is just a spare plug then thats sweet,

i wont have to worry then hey?

Yeah, you should be fine. Assuming the loom has been modified correctly, all the important wires have been covered in the 3 main plugs you already have connected.

Cheers

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
