Last step of SR swap. So close!

Hey guys, here are the details: 1989 S13 Silvia, originally came with a CA18det (bought it without an engine though, I believe it had an S14 SR from P.O.), swapping in an S13 redtop. So the problem is one of my connectors from the chassis to the engine harness on the passenger side of my engine bay (turbo side). I believe I’ve found out it’s called f10. / / / / / /

I need to switch the CA chassis side to an SR version for plugability! Grey/yellow (lol) to brown in pic.

Now I know this sounds like it should be quite simple but you see, the colours don’t match up and the CA pinouts I’ve looked (and I’ve looked at a LOT) at are different as well. Example:

Whereas my connector looks like this:

(CA18det)
White | Blank | Green/yellow | Blue/white
Red/black | Black/yellow | Black/purple(?) | Green/orange

(SR20det)

Blank | Orange | Green/yellow | Black
Red/black | Green/yellow | Black/purple | Green/orange

If anybody knows anything about it, sharing would be awesome! This is one of the last items on the list of my swap before I can hook up my battery and everything else :slight_smile:
Thanks,
Brando

hey brandon, my idea would be to re-pin the connector to SR20 specs how its needed, seeing you have the same colors on both plugs from the example of sr and ca18

did you paint that yellow

Only half Clarkyparky haha

And Nick, not all of the colours are the same. Only 4/8 match up currently. Any idea on that?

well i wouldnt necessarily match the colors up bro…4/8 may match up… but if you compare the 2 pinouts can you match the others up going by what sensors they actually are? they may not even be needed …

Get the service manuals for both models … compare schematics

id follow the wires to the ecu and re-pin according to whats there.

If you look there,^ you’ll see that the colours of my connector are still different from what they are supposed to be. Same thing goes for anything else I’ve found on google about CA’s.

And Nick, that would be the direction I was trying to go BUT I couldn’t find where the other wires go. I’m pretty sure one may be for the fuel pump, not certain which.

well the fuel pump wire is black with pink line…you can see it in your pic on the brown plug

Well then the only ones I should have issues with are white, blue/white, black/yellow on the CA side.

So if i want to follow the wires back to where they come from, multimeter my best option?

Seriously will buy beer if somebody comes to help out! Maybe even za if we’re successful haha
