==Wiring S3==

S3 wiring is different.  The speed sender connection is a seperate loom from memory - just use the auto loom for that - easy.

There is a grey 2 pin connector with really thick wires near the battery - bridge these 2 wires to disable the start inhibit - easy.

For the rest, I used the connectors from both looms to make a custom loom, that is really the only way to go with an S3.

In the same area as the grey 2 pin connector there is a grey 8 pin, you want to use this plug from your auto box to make the custom loom.

Looking at the front of the connector from the auto loom, it goes like this:

On mine the colours were:

*1 – Black
*2 – Orange
*3 – Red
*4 – Yellow
*5 – Blue
*6 – Brown
*7 – White
*8 – N/C

Connect Pin 1 and Pin 5 to the neutral switch, and Pin 1 and Pin 6 to the reverse switch, and you're done.

Now, my car is actually one of the very last s3s to be built, and actually had a 300ZX auto box, but I am now 99% certain that the early s3s use identical wiring

You don't really need to connect the neutral switch, all it does is improve fuel economy when the car is in neutral (i.e. never).  But since I was making a new loom anyway, I figured I might as well do it.
