5 speed swap s14 no crank HELLPP - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

1j_dreams · 05-12-2016, 03:06 PM

Hi i have recently completed my 5 speed swap on my s14 with an s13 trans. Everything is hooked up but it wont crank. I understand there are many threads and iv read them 100 times. Iv jumped neutral position and wired the speed sensor. Idc about lights on the dash its now 20 years old i can pass inspection no issue. How can i get this thing to crank. I understand the auto transmission had a cps but the s13 one doesnt. I also know that its not much of an issue once the car is running
Please help and get this car to crank over. Im 99% sure this bitch will fire right up as soon as i get it to crank. If anyonewith the experiance may help id appreciate it so much

There is a 2 wire plug by the fuse box that has to be modified. The two wires need to be cut and connected together. It has been a very long time since I have done one but I believe they are 8 gauge or so. They are the starter/park position safety switch wires.

Iv jumped those wires already. Ground on the intake is connected as is the alternator ground. How do people make this work? How do i go about bypassing whatever and just get it to crank i just wanna get in and crank it cus this bitch will run mint. I could most likely pop start and and things but id have to do that everytime. Ty for responses please and ty

I think what he meant to say was the neutral safety switch. That shit needs to be jumpered.

Fuck, its only been 15 years since I did my swap. :-)

All of your pictures are missing a battery.....I sure hope you have the battery installed and connected and the battery is good. There is nothing in the 5-Speed swap that should prevent you from cranking the engine EXCEPT the connector which you said you already connected and a bad battery.

Exactly, the only "wiring" I had to touch was splicing the neutral position switch (top connector on engine bay fuse box).

Unless you are using a manual lower engine harness(which you shouldn't ) then there could be more things wrong. But I'm really hoping you are on the positive side of intelligence and would have mentioned that in your origional post. But then I read your original post and.....

Are there any sounds when trying to crank? any clicking noises? Sounds like you didn't connect your lower harness properly lol.

Yes iv had the battery in i can go out there a month later and the dash will light up. Had a charger on it had a jump on it.

The last thing is the cps on the old auto tranny. How can i get around that or do i actually need the s14 manual with the cps

You do not need the cps. With it being removed the only issue you will run into is rough starts.

1j_dreams · 05-25-2016, 07:49 PM

Fuckkin shit this is blowin my mind.. So from here.. I guess i check the starter and possibly try a different battery? Even if i had a jump on it would the battery affect that? So eager to just run this thing.
