Semi-new to this forum thanks to a friend showing me a few posts that he has used on his wagon and other projects. I've read this entire thread for personal reasons not pertaining to a legit Datsun and am truly impressed with some of the info that I've come across.

 

You guys have helped me understand Nissan's ass-backwards approach to wiring and hopefully I can use some of this info when I dive into the wiring on my S13 here in the near future. I kind of want to find me a little Datsun pickup and toss one of my spare KA's into it as a daily now.

As in switching on the power side, not the ground side. I found it just as odd when I first started this stuff. I just hadn't ever thought about doing it that way, so ground switching seemed really odd.

97 puts you in obd2. Difficulty goes up significantly as the computer is much more sophisticated and scans more sensors. That's why guys use the Z car stuff.

 

Plus the truck/suv engine harness is integrated into the body harness, requiring major work to separate the two. The cars have the two harnesses already built separately.

Okay that's what I was wondering.I guess now it's time to find a car to get the wiring and sensors off.

 

 

Or get a S13 singel cam KA24E -or- a Frontier/Xterra KA24DE and and go carb'd :thumbup:

Complete novice when it comes to wiring. I bought Icehouses' box, I have a 97' KA24DE (OBD2) where do I start with the wiring?

 

 

With page 1 of this thread....

 

...and then sell that KA and buy a S13 OBD1.

Page 1 explains why s14 is the hardest 240sx harness use. It also gives the wiring diagram for that harness. Consult that diagram, the ask pointed questions about specific confusion.
