Hi,

I have done an R32 conversion to a RB25DET and bought a new engine loom for the 25 however it didnt have a plug for the Throttle position sensor.

Does anyone know why and if its required? will it just idle rough without it plugged in or will i have overall issues?

did this initially, wasnt happy with loss of VCT and the hassles of tracking back a lot of wires which were dodgy on the rb20 loom. So now, replaced the ECU, ignitor box, injector loom, coil loom and over all engine loom. only bit missing from this setup is that one plug....

from discussions with people i had you have issues with the vct running off the rb20 like it only working up high if you manually wire it however i cannot comment on it as im no car electrician or expert of any kind. and the other issue of fixing the rb20 wiring that was already f***ed is the reason of swapping it all..

The hard work of ripping it all out and putting in the new one is done. i am stumped by the idea of this one plug which there are no signs of ever existing in the loom.

    • Thanks for that.... If only I could do something once and be happy with that, like some people do....
    • I had no transmission at all so I managed to find a big box manual gearbox from an R34 GTT for an insanely good price in EU. I converted it to push type which cost more than the transmission almost, with parts from Amayama! These engines are very strong and can put out decent power with a properly sized turbo. You can save on money from parts like pistons and rods, and invest those in the transmission and other parts. I suggest you join the RB20 Enthusiasts facebook group, plenty of info and almost daily posts there about 20DE/DET/Neo+T builds. (I hope I'm not breaking any forum rules by mentioning third party platforms, just trying to help the buddy out)
    • Yeah, having tried all of those methods including BBQ+recipro/hacksaw, I ended up buying a bush press kit under $150 that works well, like this: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/355967727167?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=705-154756-20017-0&ssspo=sfmmuhxgqhm&sssrc=2047675&ssuid=dJvnaZ11TB-&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY It basically has a range of pushers and cups with threaded rods between to press out a range of large bushes. The problem with any sawing solution is minimising damage to the subframe side, although it probably needs a quick sand afterwards no matter what solution you try due to damage
    • Hi. Thanks for the answer. I do not have instagram 😄 I too considering turbo the RB20DE NEO 🙂 But i think i upgrade the gearbox first or at least buy new.  
    • Just pulled the passenger apart so got a good idea, also the side bracket that pivots the top half is completely cooked.. how I don’t know.. haha and paid $400 also included a photo of the passenger seat! She is mint
