whats going on guys. Im stumped and coming to my number 1 source of resources. I recently joined the SR club, and I,m quite happy with the results. I'm running a s13 coupe with a redtop SR swap with a stock turbo, FMIC, and a hks boost gauge, thats about all. I,m experiencing two problems right now. 1) The heat; I can let the car warm up for an hour and no warm air, but the second i get going down the road for about a minute, i,m sweating my a$$ off. My ka-t didn't even have a termostat and only took about 10 mins to warm up. 2) Speed sensor; everything hooked up right, the ecu is pinned right (tripled checked the pinning) installed a working speed sensor and swap in a 92 gauge cluster, that was also working. Any ideas? Also don't pay the signature about "still running crappy" Came out to be a faulty FMIC , took me a week to figure that one out

If you've swapped in known working components, then you know it has to be in the wiring somewhere. Probably at the dash plug or the subharness. I would check continuity across all parts of the subharness to rule out broken wiring.

As far as the heat thing goes, SRs are notorious for not having good heat if the thermostats are stuck open. If you didn't replace the thermostat, I'd recommend calling up your local nissan dealer and ordering a new one.
