man, today was a perfect day to be putting in a new engine.....if only.

didnt here back from jeff...surprisingly

If it makes you feel any better my swap over hit a f**k off sized brick wall tonight. Turns out the injectors are wired straight into the ecu, can't just unplug them somewhere and use the complete loom from the sil.

So we decided to use the engine part of your loom that had been sliced off, and the ecu part of my loom, which we had to slice off in exactly the same fashion. Do you think all the wires in a Ceffy loom match up with what I presume to be the 32 loom from my car? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO of course f**king not.

So where it was left tonight was we have 2 complete looms, both sliced cleanly in half. Of the 20ish wires on both looms, the easy to match up (only 1 of that colour) ones have been soldered together, the slightly harder ones (theres like 3 or 4 solid black wires coming from each loom) have just been left until one of us doing the job can be f**ked having another crack at it.

Now to search the shit out of the forum and see if I can come up with ANYTHING that is going to help us identify which ones to join to get the c*nt running. Alternatively, anyone have half an idea about wiring, familiar with 32s/ceffys/RB20s and want to lend a hand for some booze?

Hour and a half later I have found that the ecu pin outs for R32 and A31 are exactly the same, which means I can look at any of the wires on the ceffy ecu plug and look at it's corresponding wire on the 32 ecu plug and know that even if they are a different colour they do exactly the same job and can be joined together.

I guess thats some sort of progress so fuck it I'm off to bed :D

i get to play auto sparkie.... my car is draining batteries in less than 24 hrs, lights, radio etc are fine while the car is running for a while, so i doubt its the alternator.

my -ve battery lead is in pretty sad condition, and definitely needs replacing. wish me luck messing about with multi meter and pulling fuses :)

it could be as simple as me absent-mindedly leaving my phone charger plugged into the cigarette lighter........ lets hope its that

      R33 GTR lift points for hoist

      FWIW the depth of the groove in the rubber pad is not super essential, the blocks are rubber and squish a bit. If you are worried an angle grinder will make a deeper groove quick smart

      I mean, if you were to move the jacking points away from the original location, that is, away from the wheels and closer to the centreline of the car, then it will be more likely to overbalance and tip off the supports. Same as we talked about before. I was talking about moving for-aft. If the sill is bent outward or inward, then the car would obviously look unstraight from the outside. Hopefully that hasn't happened either. Again, you can do comparative measurements from the chassis rails to see if there is much deflection.

      Can you elaborate what you mean with your first sentence? I meant move as in the bulge kinda seemed like it got pulled "outward" meaning it got pulled down and to the side with the jacking rail itself, so the load bearing bulge now sits lower than usual and is not level with the sill on the other side of the jack point. Either that or the jacking rail just got pushed in a good bit.

      As well as being risky WRT tipping off anyway. Yeah, I wouldn't expect it to move. Just measure from the rear one to the front one on the good side, then measure that same length on the wrecked side. You will find the notches in the pinchweld, and the jacking pad. Just spray a spot of marker paint or something there.

      but any other area than the bulge you are talking about will just cave in then? The front driver side is pretty bent so I don't know if that will work the way it is now. I can still kinda make out where that bulge is/was but it looks like the position of it also changed due to all the mistreatment? Hard to tell
