Default S14Sr into S14 wiring

Anyone have any info on how to wire this. I searched around and all I have found is the s13sr into s13 wiring. Can anyone on here help. I went to the HT write up, but that is for a s13sr.

I can do the wiring for you if you like.

For free sweet. I'll buy the beers. On the real. is this all I have to do.

Doing the wiring for an SR swap can be a daunting task, especially for those who do not want to deal with figuring out which wires to cut & extend. Here at FRSPORT.COM, we will walk you through the wire harness modification so that your engine will start on the first try!

This guide is for swapping an S13 SR motor into an S13 240SX chassis.

Before we begin, please make sure you have the following tools in order to simplify the process:

A roll of Electrical tape (3M brand works best)
Wire stripper & cutter
Soldering iron & solder
Heat shrink tubing (optional)
Heatgun / Lighter to shrink the tubing (optional)
Heat shrink tubing and a heatgun is optional, but gives the modifications a professional touch and is less prone to potential future problems.
The first modification required is replacing the SR dash connector with the stock KA dash connector. The SR dash connector (white, as shown in Figure 1) will not mate with the KA dash harness, so it needs to be replaced with the KA dash connector. Cut both the SR & KA dash connectors, and wire the KA one to the SR harness using the table & wiring color guide below.



Figure 1
Connect the wires according to the table below:

SR Wire Color KA Wire Color Function
Black (may be more than 1) Black (may be more than 1) Ground
Blue / Green Stripe Blue / Green Stripe AC Signal
Blue / Black Stripe Blue / Black Stripe Water Temperature Signal
Orange Orange Ignition Start
Yellow / Red Stripe Yellow / Red Stripe Tachometer Signal
Yellow / Green Stripe Yellow / Green Stripe Speedometer Signal

The rest of the dash wires are not required, unless you plan to use the consult port. Wrap the unused wires individually in electrical tape or heat shrink tubing to prevent them from shorting out.

The next step is to extend the O2 connector. The connector has three wires:

Brown with yellow stripe, white, and brown, as shown in the image below (Fig. 2 & 3)


Figure 2

Figure 3
Get 3 pieces of wire about 2 ft. in length and extend the connector, matching the wire colors up. Don't forget to use heat-shrink tubing if you have it. Wrap the newly extended wire in electrical tape.

The other wires that needs to be extended are the MAF wires. Locate that plug according to the picture below (Figure 4). The two plugs next to the MAF plug are unused and not needed to get your SR running.


Figure 4
**One of our customer was gracious enough to let us know that this plug is the power steering switch. If wired up to the power steering switch, it will enable the ECU to bump up the idle slightly at full lock. This plug is optional and is not required to get your car running.

These MAF wires need to extend across the engine bay to the driver side fender. Extend them as long as they need to be.

FOR SOHC MAF USERS, THE PINOUT IS AS FOLLOWS:

SOHC MAF PIN SR WIRE COLOR FUNCTION
A Black / White +12V (Power)
B Black MAF Ground
C White MAF Signal


FOR Z32 MAF USERS, THE PINOUT IS:
(ECU retune is required)
Z32 MAF PIN SR WIRE COLOR FUNCTION
A - Not connected
B Black / White +12V power
C Black MAF Ground
D - Not connected
E White MAF Signal
F - Not Connected


The last step is to cut the end of the harness with the three plugs and mate it to the chassis, as shown in Figure 5. The plugs have different pinouts, so you will either need to use the plugs on the KA harness, or wire them up directly if you don't have the KA harness. Only two of those plugs are used, while the third is unrequired.


Figure 5a
The wire colors match up according to the following table:

SR Wire Color KA Wire Color Function
Black / Pink stripe Black / Pink stripe Fuel pump relay
Green / Orange stripe Green / Orange stripe Transmission neutral switch
Red / Black stripe Red / Black stripe ECU relay
Green / Yellow stripe Green / Yellow stripe* AC relay
Black / White stripe Black / White stripe ECU power
Blue / Green stripe Blue / Green stripe AC relay
Black / Yellow stripe Black / Yellow stripe Idle air control solenoid power
Brown Any +12V Switched** O2 sensor power
Red Red ECU backup power
Black / Red
Blue / Red Black / Red stripe Main ignition power

*Update 11-19-06: It seems like there are some confusion regarding the Green/Yellow stripe wire. On the S13 chassis side, there is only 1 Green/Yellow wire while on the SR harness there are two. The Green/Yellow wire is for AC relay while the other on the SR harness is unused and can be taped off. If you do not plan to use AC, you do not need to worry about these wires. For those who would like to wire up the AC system, see picture below for correct wire to connect.

**Update 11-19-06: The O2 sensor power can be connected to any +12V switched source. This wire can be connected to the black / red stripe (Main ignition power) or any other wire that provides +12V when the key is in the "ON" position. Connecting the sensor power wire to main ignition power means there will be many wires connected in the same location with a lot of current. I would recommend soldering these wires together and heat-shrinking them.




Fig. 5b

Finally, the two plugs by the ignitor connectors are also unused and can be tucked away or wrapped in electrical tape.




Figure 6
If done correctly, your engine will start when cranked! Good luck!

I sold the s14 shell and got the vert!!! Now I traded my ka-t and got an SR. I have a buddy of mine up here that has done the ka-sr wire harness swap. I just want to know if that FAQ is correct.

the info you have is correct for an s13 sr in a s13. But the s14 wiring is way different. That is because of the relays and large connector under the dash. Keep searching and you should find a write for the conversion.
