5 speed swap

[j.le]

aright i have almost all the parts...but im debating to either just get a 5 speed ecu and 5 speed lower harness...or just splice the one i have and use the auto ecu....but my question is...if i use the manual ecu....the sensors on the clutch pedal....what are they? and what do they connect to....and if i use the auto ecu...what wires are spliced??? please help :D o and its a sohc....so idk if the 5 speed swap is a lil differnt than the dohc

[sullen]

5 spd ecu and lower harness. and you dont need the sensors. just jump the neutral safety switch by the battery.

aright thanks a lot man! and so everything will run just fine?

[sullen]

pmce you corss the neutral safet switch by the battery yes. you will need a manual ecu to make everything work out right. the tps has 2 plugs on a auto. one of them is unplugged i think. but im not sure which one. its an easy swap though man. takes most guys around an hour or 2.

god the beer is affecting me already...

[j.le]

yeah im pretty confident on the swap...just the wiring...lol just like everyone else i guess

[sullen]

yea dude. i've done quite a few of them. but the duals are my specialty. i don't like the singles. if anyone wants a single block, i have one. come take the motherfucker. clear out my garage.

[j.le]

but the single and the dual is the same swap isnt it???

[white_s14]

just use the auto ecu it works fine!

[j.le]

haha i kno man but i want to make this simple as possible...if im not mistaking the s14 5 speed swap is a lil differnt with the fuse box and shit

[sullen]

im talking about s13s. my friend had an issue with the ecu. i had to donate a manual dual ecu. the auto wouldn't let him accelarate.

[j.le]

oOo ok....when i jump the neutral saftey switch..can i start the car without the clutch being down? or will it work like a normal 5 speed?

[j.le]

is the neutral saftey switch the same as the neutral position switch? if so...i jump the switch closest to the shifter?http://img134.imageshack.us/img134/2378/54111028we1.png

yes, you will be able to start without the clutch. and no it is by the battery. on the side of the battery, you'll notice a fusebox. directly DOWN. you will see 3 plugs vertically. its one of those. i think the one in the middle...but its been a while. i'd know if i saw it.

black w/ yellow stripe. white. those 2 wires need to be jumped to bypass the starter lock. single oval grey plug.

edit: o ok ill look at it tommorow thanks a lot man...

[sullen]

not too hard man, just need 2 female connectors i believe. and a section about 4" of wire. and then elec. tape it closed so nothing hangs. usually comes out looking nice.

or heat shrink tube??? im a lil confused....where will i use the female connectors...and why do i need 4" of wire

edit* i think i know what u mean....female connect on each wire i cut...and the 4" wire to connect them right???

[slideways]

yes use 5 speed ecu. im sure my motor would have blown up if i didn't have it

[Z-Bryan]

You can use an auto ECU

It just might run kind of funny

and you'll have a CEL on all the time

i already have the 5 speed ecu so im goin to do what sullen said

[J Squared]

Oops I thought this was a 5-lug swap FAQ. Anyone know where I can find one of those?

[j.le]

is this the wires sullen???http://nissaninfiniticlub.net/photopost/data/500/9294parkneutralswitch.jpg
