If anyone is interested in how to splice an RB25 (s2) harness into an early z32 (8bit) harness. I have a good start..still working out cold start sensor and a few others.. but she fired up without hesitation! Still no intake or coolant pipes plumbed, so considering that, she runs ok!

I will do a writeup on the wiring once I get it running decent lol.

Also motor mount xmember ect if anyone is interested

Ive narrowed down the stumbling/sputtering issue to it only running on 5 lol. It has good spark from all 6 coils. Injector to #2 cyl not working.

Checked mechanically, by pressurizing and hooking ground and power to it, it sprays fine, same as #1. Checked resistance and #1+#2 are both 12ohm. From what ive read it should be from 11.4-14? So that seems fine.

Double checked my wiring with power probe. Wiring good from ecu pin 110 to injector #2. So short of a break in the solder on circuit board in ecu, or CAS not giving signal to #2? Anyone with experience on this id appreciate it! Thanks guys.

In testing the CAS I found everything was fine, but I noticed all the injectors were firing in a row, 1-6. Its because I followed someone elses WRONG info on using a z32 ecu, and rewiring to suit. So if anyone is curious it needs to be 1-1, 2-5, 3-3, 4-6, 5-2, 6-4. (RB25-Z32) same goes for coils. Fired up, runs on all 6 now.
