I have the resistor pack, and a harness from an r32 gtr, but there is no place to plug the resistor pack in. Is there supposed to be a plug for this thing on the main harness? Or am I missing a piece? I was comparing my harness with a picture of one on rhdjapan and they appear to have the same number and type of plugs.

All the pictures of r32/r33 engine bays I've seen have the resistor pack on the left hand side of the engine bay on the fender well behind where the battery would be on a 240sx. It looks like it plugs into something that goes into the relay box but I can't seem to find clear pictures of it.

I'm wanting to ship the harness soon but there is no point in shipping it if it's missing a critical piece. I already spent some time removing the crimp on splices some body used for aftermarket junk.

I'm beginning to regret my decision to buy a r33 long block and a box of parts instead of a proper motorset. I just HAD to have to longer snout crank. It seemed like a good idea at the time.

YOUR current plug goes to the body harness then it goes to the resistor pack, you have to add the plug on modified harness....

So I have to modify the harness that stays in the car, not the one I ship off?

If that's the case, I have an extra 240sx harness with the appropriate size plug on it, I could use it to attach the resistors where they are needed.

Any diagrams/writeups on where to attach this? Or do I need to get busy tracing wires?

Well I'm planning on shipping it off via RawBrokerage, which means it will get to Carl. I guess as long as I send s13 and rb26 harness and the resistor pack, I'll get back what I'll need.

Thanks for the info.
