it should be a 7k resistor for the gear position..
what issues are you having?? is it idling high?
you might have them in the wrong wire??
to help with the fast idle fit a 6.8 or 7k resistor between pin 30 and pin 46 on the ecu..

On my ED i put the 7k resistor on the 2 wires that terminated in their own plug. they were both purple or violet from memory but they were differnet than the ones mentioned in the guide for the ef in the tech docs. I think this worked, as the car started up fine with the modified loom in and when i removed it while the car was running, the revs dropped straight away and it didnt sound as smooth.
