You need to get constant and switched power, fuel pump ground ECU ground. Then swap the oil sending unit and knock sensors from the RB lower to the KA lower and hook them in to the guages and ECU respectively. Using the KA lower you should be fine on starter signal, speedo and reverse lights....

Looking into the computer, there are 2 wires at the far right, I believe they should be black or blakc/white that should be grounded....I will email you wiring diagrams for the RB20 now....double check them all.

I sent the damn pictures to you like 3 times, maybe there is something wrong with your email, or you have given me the wrong address. EVERYONE who asked for them got a copy. I sent them out to EVERYONE who posted their address in this thread or emailed me.

COOL YOUR JETS!

You need to find out what you are not getting, if your fuel pump is working, are the injectors firing? are the spark plugs firing?

You should check if you are getting power to the igniter...also check and make sure that the relays inside the car are plugged in and getting power...after that is checked, if no luck, come back again.

no the light bulb in the light will stop it from shorting. Unless you hit more than one wire at a time.....
