Tomei Z32 Plugs

[Craved]

just been looking around trying to find the plugs to adapt the Z32 AFM to the RB25 ECR33 loom.

any ideas on where i can get one from?

cheers

Maybe someone knows what wires to wire it up..as i have the z32 plug...anyone know the wiring of it? Ive looked in DIY section with no real help there or maybe im too noob to understand it.

Ok maybe i can rephrase my question in more detail...can someone help with the wiring from the three wire plug on a r33 S2 to the z32 plug please? Sorry for the vague question.

[Cubes]

The only difference witht he R33 S2 is it uses 1 earth for both the signal and 12v feed.

Grab a multimeter and find out which one is which, its easy.

The z32 afm wiring guide I did has been corrupted, I upload a new uncorrupted version however the forum still corrupts it.

With regards to the plug I popped down to the local U-Pull It parts wreckers and grabbed a plug from a VL Commodore, they are the same as the Z32 plug.

Tip, don't cut the standard plug off, wire the Z32 plug in parrallel, That way you can swap back to the RB25 AFM if you have a problem.

cheers

A problem or a defect.

Which is exactly what I have done.

[r33_racer]

Haha even better...will do. Thats what i call forward planning! Something my father is still trying to bash into me, lol mechanic vs boily....whose dumber???

r33_racer, if you need a hand i live in brissy and know a bit about electrics and have the proper tools,

pm me if you want to organise something

Don't forget your flux pen when soldering, makes solder take to wires so much easier.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

We just use solder with a flux core at work... makes it alot easier

[Cubes]

I've tried a supposive solder with flux.. Didn't work as good as a flux pen for me.

[Craved]

ok cool so RB30 plugs work ... thanks for the INFO ..

wiring diagrams etc are a help there too!

From what I can see on the loom i have lying around, the R31 (aussie) is also the same 4pin square plug.. so yeah, doesn't matter if its off a VL or R31 (prolly not pintara though as they have a different afm from what i remember)

[r33_racer]

yes i use flux cored solder also and it works fine...flux pen thats like oxy brazing and having to dip the wire in the flux before welding...messy

Thanks for the offer crazy_boy but i should be fine on this one...just wasnt sure what the go was with the wires but i can use a multimeter to work out earth and 12v supply cheers.

[Cubes]

The flux pen is nothing like oxy brazing.

The flux pen is a pen so you simply 'draw' on both wires, so its not messy.

Pool the solder on the soldering iron touch the wires and because the wires have the flux on them its like the wires suck the solder from the soldering iron.

I noticed the R31 afm plug was the same also.

[Angry]

looks similar to the plug on my r31 rb20 afm ......

i have a question completely off topic..... how the f. in hell does the plug come off the afm? or am i just not doing it right? lol ..

I was refering to the difference in processes...not the actual flux for wire and flux for brazing...my bad again...i assumed you would understand it from my view...i really should explain things more clearly.

-like heating up job then wire and dipping wire in flux and then brazing

-applying your flux pen to the wire then pooling the solder and letting it attach itself to the flux coated wire. both manual processes

-while just pooling solder with flux in it and letting it attach to the wire. more simpler process...but each to their own!

[Cubes]

This is the solder I use. It has a resin core? Is that the flux?

Solder

I had some other stuff that was a little thicker and didn't melt to well with my cool soldering iron. It was supposed to have flux in it.

I had problems with the solder staying on the soldering iron and not transfering to the wire. The wire would end up having its insulation melted as the only way to get the solder on to the wire was to heat the sucker up. Even then it was still difficult.

[r33_racer]

Yeh the resin cored solder..it runs right through the middle of the solder wire.
