Just installed the Ecliptech Shift-i sequential shift light.

Very easy install.

These are the wiring points i used on the back of the cluster.

Red= +12v Ignition

Black= Ground

Blue= Tacho signal

I used the wire clips that came with the light to splice into the

back of the cluster. The factory Tacho signal wire is Yellow with Blue tracer.

Green wire for 12v Ignition.

And the ground point as marked on the first image.

I tested it at this point by turning on ignition.

Then put dash back together.

Just used trusty old double sided tape to secure it.

Only needed to calibrate up one point and it's spot on.

Cheers

someone correct me if i'am wrong but the rpm signal coming from the ecu pin 7 (yellow with blue stripe) is only a 5-7v square wave and isnt enough to power my drift digital rpm gauge there is power feeding through it but when connected to pin 7 and once the car is started no rpm reading so i had to go out and purchase a bloody vdo signal amplifier so i can run my aftermarket digital tacho :thanks:

any enlightenment would be appreciated

I suggest emailing Tony (the maker of shift-i) and asking him.

The guys is one of the cleverest people I've ever come across.

He'll no doubt be able to answer your question.

ive bought this last year and am very happy with its performance. love how theres so many functions on just 2 buttons tho it was confusing at first and you'll lose your settings if you replace your battery. ive spliced my signal wire on my ecu's tacho signal wire

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
