My car is a r32 gts-t, 2 door coupe, Type M, and i cant quite figure out where to run my wires through. i cut a hole in the firewall and have run them through that through doorstep trim to the seats. Thats where the problem is really. Behind the seats is a metal backing so its very hard to run them through. How can i run them past? If i remove the seat backs will i be able to find a hole in the metal backing?

thx

cool bro, behind the rear set their are heaps of holes were ya can run ya power wire through. i used the stock hole in the fire wall. and ran the power wires along the drivers side.. then ran the 3 sets of RCAs along the pas side(only did it that way to keep the sound off guys happy)

I removed the metal back thing, it only has one hook for the back seat , the fixed parts of the the rear seat can still latch onto the other two hooks on the left and right side.

it just has about 7 10mm bolts holding it up on the back, if ya remove it you will get more bass in the cabin as well :P

good luck with it, hope i helped ya mate

thanks man, i just did what you said cept i ran all my wires on drivers side. Now only problem im having is with getting the stupid seats back together, i can only lift one side up high enough to get it to clip in. Will get a crow bar later and sort it out. I'll look into unhooking that black thing, test with and without it

thx agian

not a problem mate, i would bother testing... with or with out the back plate, you wont ever put it back in once you have heard the subs! lol

Yeah the rear of the seat can be a pain to push up to the height of the rear window, just to hook it in.

good luck with it mate

    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • 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  
    • 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..
