Trying to finish rb20det, couple of quick questions

[Vkoslak]

1st thing, heater hoses. ive got a top and bottom on the s13 chassis, which hose from the rb goes to which one? The hoses are still on the rb, one has what I can only guess is a temp sensor on it. Does that one go in the top or bottom?

2nd, lower wiring harness. the part with the altenator wires and all that crap, rb one is still on the motor, but I haven't removed the KA one yet. Any advantage to switching to KA? Seems like thats what all the wiring instructions say to do.

3rd, Fuel lines, in from filter goes to top or bottom?

Back to the garage, I'll check in later.

If anyone is in Austin and would like to help, hit me up on AIM: Vkoslak

my ka plugs were plug and play for the alternator, mine is an rb25. i think i had to drill out the hole on one of the wires so the bolt would go through. its been a while, but it seems like it was pretty easy to just use the ka wires.

use the ka lower harness, it makes life oh so much easier.......swap out sensors as needed on the trans to make it line up.......on the fuel lines the line comming from the regulator is the return, the feed goes to the back of the rail.heater hoses it doesnt matter which hoses go on what ports, just as long as they get connected, mine were a mix of s13 and r32 heater hoses.....

Thanks, I got the fuel lines on and the heater hoses. Even the brake booster.

There was a vacuum line missing from a spot on the fuel rail near the firewall, I only saw one other spot that had the same size vacuum tube connector on a T near the BOV thats connected to the plenum(but not directly connected to the BOV). So I ran some vacuum hose there.

I'm tired though and may not be describing it right.

I will finish lower harness later in the week.

Thanks again.
