Hi all,

Doing some work to my r34 and at the same time trying to do a wire tuck and tidy the engine bay up abit,

Theres some wires that i cant account for, if somebody with a GTT (GTS is probably same?) could have a look it would help me massively..

The most confusing wire is located on the drivers side next to the fuse box, it may have gone through the plugs on the strut tower, Black wire splices off into 4 wires.. Possibly earth?

Starting with the red and black wire circled in green, i think i cut it awhile ago when i first put my manifold on but want to know what it was from, as seen the one wire splices into 2..

Can somebody also let me know what color wires go to the MAP sensor? I cut the plug off thinking i wouldnt need it since i am installing a haltec Platinum Pro, but now i think it may utilize the factory sensor wiring?

On the front of the engine circled in red where the top radiator hose goes in there is 4 earth wires that go into 2 lugs, Why do they do it like this instead of terminating the 4 wires at 1 point? I am now only left with 3 wires but i believe 1 was for something i no longer use, i am also going to earth it on the manifold further back so it is hidden,.

Thanks mate,

Do you know what the red and black wire is an earth from?

The earth's circled in red are 4 wires from 4 different sources,they still only have 1 earth point but 2 share 1 point and 2 share the other.. just curious why the 4 wires don't terminate at 1 point. ..

I have put the earth from multimeter on the same earth as a coolant earth before and had the coolant gauge behave erratically and thought this might be a similar scenario

    • Hey all, I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.  I have a 2008 Japanese import V36 coupe with nav but without Bose. I bought one of those AliExpress android screens, which for the most part works really well.  The only thing that doesn't work is the air con controls (well sort of) and the factory reverse camera.  The AC can be controlled fine but it doesn't report the change in temp and mode to the screen, and the volume knob/other audio controls from the panel don't register on the learning app.  I am pretty certain that the problem is the difference in the head unit between base model (Nav but no Bose) 2007-2009 coupes and anything after 2009.  Mine is the one with the blue connector all the way to the right as seen in this forum post:  The reason I think this is there is one wire left over that doesn't fit anywhere on this head unit, or in the factory screen which also uses different connectors to more recent versions.  I've seen the upgrade from OWC, and have sent the guy a message on eBay but no response yet.  I also don't particularly need the whole kit, just *maybe* an adapter for this one cable.  Did anyone else here have the same problem, or have any insight about what I can do to get this working?  I have been in contact with the seller but all they seem to be able to do is ask for more pictures and videos. Minor edit to add:  I have been researching and found a screen on Aliexpress that actually specifies my head unit in the listing, so these things do exist.  I will contact the seller to see if the wiring adapters are interchangeable with other screens.   Thanks in advance!
