ok so i found most of the things i needed

this is the r32 dash harness plugs, by the ecu. i need the pin out for each plug

thanks for all the help, i bought a r32 rb20 front clip that came with the whole chassis harness, i have a rhd s13 coupe and swap the whole chassis harness, and dash so that i dont have to do any wiring for the rb20, but then i sold the complete rb20 swap and bought a r33 front clip.so now i need to get some wiring help for a rb25 into "r32 chassis".

Drifter,

You have a lot of information to ask for here. Let stake one step at a time.

I am sure that a Rb25DET S1 into a R32 GTS (GTR?) has not been covered much.

Here are a few things that will help. Pic 1 - looks like ABS wheel speed sensor.

Pic 2 - power interface and the smaller plug looks like a Knock sensor plug that connects to the engine harness.

Pic 3 - you need a pinout for each plug? Really? thats 3 pages at best. Then you need to find matching wiring on the chassis. Not easy with this swap.

Based on our experience, i would suggested keeping the RB20 harness and matchingit to the RB25 engine. It should not be hard as Most of the connectors are usable. You will have to change the injector interface plug, as the routing is different on the RB25. Overall, this will be much easier than retrifitting an RB25 harness to the R32 chassis as the interaces are a bit different between the two (especially on the interior). But, its all doable.

Hope this helps.

thanks for the info, this swap is been done on a GTS4 (AWD RB20).i would use the rb20, but i sold the rb20 swap complete with the harness.my only option is to find an rb20 wiring and rb25 wiring and look at what is been use for both harness, and figure it out from there.

i have the rb25 dash harness already label so thats a good thing..

thanks again man, if it comes down to it then ill just buy an rb20 harness.

I'm sure you are already aware of this, but you know you can't just throw in any old RB25 motor/transmission, right? You'll need a AWD version of the RB25 from a stagea (or turbo an n/a version from a R33/R34 skyline GT4) and you'll need some kind of awd transmission like an RB26 transmission (which is what came in it).

Sorry with no help on the wiring other than saying you'll need both harnesses (RB20/25). I paid somebody to do mine, but you aren't going to make it work with just an rb25 harness.

lol yeah i know, the reason i said im going to put it in a r32 is because i bought the r32 gts4 front clip. it came with complete harness for the car.i went RHD in my s13 and used everything from the clip. so all my wiring harnes is from the r32. i know i know its a mess but its getting there.i though it will just be easier if i just said going into a r32.here is a shot of the interior and engine bay.
