welcome to the forum.


the loom IS different,it's easiest AFAIK to just swap in the correct one to suit the motor.

ok how do i wiring in the DET loom

unplug and remove the de loom and replace it with the det loom perhaps?

i guessed that much but is it a strat plug in.....wich i dont think it is

oops

you'll need to add a relay for the coils and loop the wire on the plug under the fuse box as it's originally an auto.

Otherwise, it all plugs in.

You'll have to dig through some of the old posts for more detail as it has been pretty well discussed.

ok cool thanks. But what do i search for on how to do the relay??

i just did a quick one for "det conversion"

here's one on the auto manual bit. It's for CA but still valid

http://forum.silviansw.com/viewtopic.ph ... conversion

Note the bit on electrical

when you do the search go to about page 40 and start working back as it will have been covered years ago when everyone was swapping their de's for det's

Sure, if you're putting an SR20 into an American 240SX (or maybe a Pintara with a KA24)....

i thought the US 240SX was our 180SX

if you forget the fact that they are left hand drive, and run a truck motor, then yes..

bhdave has already said all you need to know. Forget US crap- those guys are fuckwits. Search this forum for a few hours before typing another useless post.. Everything you need to know is already documented on this site.

We don't like having to spoon feed answers to every person that comes along; this question has probably been answered 50 times already.

i would not call it spoon feeding. i would call it helping an import car enthusiats like your self out ....and i have search this forum and can't find what i'm looking for

i did find this but dont know where i find it

Those connectors are on the driver's side fusebox in the 180SX. It's either attached to the shock tower, or near it.

Seriously though dude, search moar. Like Dog said, the 240SX stuff isn't all applicable to the 180SX.
