Lotus7 Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 I wanna go back to continue my 1977 ZapZ project with RB26 engine and Rb25 tranny. I forgot what i need to do in regards to the wiring. I have the stock 280z wiring in the chassis and I also have an RB26dett R32 engine/injection wiring harness. Where do I start? Is there anyone one can help me convert/merge my stock 280Z wiring along with the Rb26 wiring? I will pay. I stopped this project for about 3 years now. I'm ready to continue. I forgot all my plans & things that I need to do. That's a long years that the car sitting.....empty heart. Thank you... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lotus7 Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 Oh, that's good news, I will talk to them. What they do? modify the R32 harness and plug it to stock 280z harness? Thanks stony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lotus7 Posted January 29, 2013 Author Share Posted January 29, 2013 The last time, I remember modifying my oil pump sump pickup....but I'm not comfortable i did it right. Is there any aftermarket that you know selling an oil pick up for RB26? I also forgot where my oil sump came from but it fits...all i need is the proper pick up.

Zreddy Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 (edited) Go with wiring specialties, i went with someone else and wasn't pleased. I wasn't pleased with wiring specialties work.... I pretty much picked up a another used harness and just followed Chris Rummel's write-up, it now runs like a charm... P.S. I should of just did that in the first place. It's also good to know where and what all the wires are coming from the ECU in the long run... Lotus7 - Good luck and have fun with the project man! It took me 5 long years working on it off and on, but its all worth it in the end...! Edited January 30, 2013 by Zreddy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also had a few issues with my harness that Yuri walked thru with me over the phone. I eventually found out i just misunderstood how to shoot thru the ignitor. Im sure if you had an issue with your harness and called yuri at wiringS he would have been more then happy to resolve what ever problem you had.
