im super keen to do one of these for my fairlane its an NC. EB1. i have read the docs and i see the wiring diagrams and everything. but i just want to be 100% on what pins and what resisters to use.

sorry if this is going over and over again but i dont want to f**k up when im dealing with the elecs.

im gonna put a switch in the dash nect to the demister


just letting you know that the necassary wires that you will have to tap into arn't from the ECU, your NC has a seperate transmission ECU to the left of the brake pedal :)

Yeah its a bit nerve-wracking cutting into wire looms and stuff for the first time, but its always good to know that if you mess something up, you can just remove the kit and re-wire how it was originally.
Mines an EB1. Should be pin 7 and 29 (ones green, the other yellow), using 10w 5.6ohm and 10w 18ohm resistors.
I could try to get pics if it would help?

If your auto is a 4 speed, it'll have one. Its a silver box with two yellow plugs coming out of it, each of which with a heap of wires running off it. Located just above the footrest.

Hi guys,
I made the shift kit for my EL, the pins are different for an EL so i found that 71 = 57 and 81 = 38

Can i please confirm that this is correct because i installed it today and it didnt make any difference.

Thanks

i have just purchased the parts for the shift kit. I got the '0336' switch from jaycar, which is a 3 position switch (on, off, on).

Is this the correct switch??
I also purchased the (on, on) switch just incase.

What are the 3 positions for??

Cheers
David

Just finished building my shift kit!
Thanks very much to everyone who put the instructions together, was very easy to put the kit together using the step by step instuctions. I put the switch on the box itself, and ill whack the whole unit in the glove box.

i'm going to install it into the car later on tonight, and take it for a drive and see how it goes.

Cheers!
David.

Shift kit installed!!
TWO THUMBS UP!!! Best thing ever for 10 bukcs!!
Wish i did it 6 months ago when i first looked into it.

From what i can gather:
Switch one way=improved shift over stock
Switch center=stock
Switch the other way= Hang on!!

Definately switch center for wet roads!

I left with the switch one way first and thought 'yeah, not bad', switch center 'ah, stock...', and flicked it the other way and thought 'HOW GOODS THIS!!!!'

Congrats to the people who put in the hard work setting up the doco on how to build and install

Cheers fellas
David

Here is the a basic diagram for the LED warning. This is from the other thread but there was an error. They had the LED looped so basically both poles on the LED were going to the power.

{DESCRIPTION}

You will be able to see power goes into the DPDT in the middle pole. Then you have the green and red LED's off the end poles. The other pin on the LEDs will connect to each other and go to negative or ground.

I am planning taking the accessories power supply from the radio. That way the power is only on when the accessories are on. The LED wont drain enough power to drain the battery but still.


What if you only want to use the Green LED for when you shift the switch on? or do you have to have the Red LED hooked in so it's only lit up when the ignition is either in accessories or on?

My shift kit consists of 2 switches and 2 Ballistic Resistors, not sure what Ohm's they are but I can check to see if I can figure out what ohms they are but the switches are the exact same as whats described on here.

Car is an ED

Thanks

Hi Has anyone done one of these for a BA as they changed the way they control them from the ecu by earthing the solinoids in the ecu instead of sending power to them. Cheers MD
