nis720 Posted April 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2015 WANT!!!!! Both of those look great. bummer on the pistons... where they OEM style pistons? They were custom pistons.... but I don't think they were suited for my application after talking to my old engine builder. He said the next set would be a better casting. 1 Quote Link to comment

Thanks Fast720 I found it easier to get a 240sx engine harness (it's seperate from the body harness) and spliced in the 2 main connectors using the SR20 conversion diagrams for reference. Since I also had a 240sx fuse box I took the plugs and the Main ECU relay and Fuel pump relay. As far as the tach, temp and MIL light you'll find those wires on the smaller plug near the ECU. 1 Quote Link to comment
nis720 Posted June 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 I redid the harness a few years ago and this is what it looked like after I stripped all the wires I didn't need and replaced the main plugs with Deutsch connectors. 1 Quote Link to comment

Whats funny is I still never got a wire diagram out of you that you were suppose to supply to me. 1 Quote Link to comment

Thanks Fast720 Try other 240sx forums like zilvia.net or nico. Thanks man, not making nearly as much progress as i would want but that's life. All I keep getting are previews of what will be. 1 Quote Link to comment
