THAT STUPID ROAD GOING THROUGHT THE ARMY BARRICKS!

omg.. and just over the bridge.. shit.. that f's my car up like a mofo

I got a friend living on that street...

And they actually fixed that road once... Then they had to rip it up coz of the new houses contructions.

The worst is down Anzac pde, between the franklins shopping and the Maroubra rd cross. Going towards lapar.

It was once very nice. Damm all these constructions around the place.

I just got back from having the front windscreen replaced in my work hiace van. Had a couple of tiny tiny tiny stone chips at either end of the window and then afew months back the council had to re-tar a 1ft wide section of a road I go along on the way to my work depot each morning. the section that had the new tar was about 2 inches higher than the road and their was no choice but to hit it doing about 60km/h. So 2 of the stone chips resulted in 2x 30cm cracks in the screen :D

Since then the council came back and scraped it back so it's level with the rest of the road, idiots!

Luckily it was a free insurance job.

i dont know if any of u guys driven on pittwater road on the northern beaches, this long stretch of road is a piece of crap filled with potholes, and uneven patches of repairs.

majority of it is not even tarmac! its slabs of concrete sealed together with tar, so if you got some stiff suspension your be bouncing in your seat for a few km's. i drive the backstreets just to avoid that crappy road

My favourite is still driving towards Campsie on Parramatta Road (the one right next to the clock tower) - that place is horrendous for pot holes! But after seeing my ex for 2 years, kinda got used to the bumps and learnt how to navigate through it...

Yes, Pittwater road is an absolute bish as well... always sounds like you've got a flat spot on your tyres (all 4 of em :D)

Another one that's really bad is coming into Rockdale from the city, not really pot holes but just a series of ridges on the little bridge, makes the car jump all over the place.

Suspension = TEIN HA Coilovers with damper on setting 16 :D

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
