I plan for it to be an all round car, street, drift, drags, track, and shows.

I've had the car only 12 months, mite take a couple of years but thats the intension to build an all rounder.

I have coil overs and wheels comming next month.

The car is currently sitting in the workshop , im completing the next series of modifications.

Bit of a decent update,

Im going to include alot more pics this time just to give you guys an idea on how much work goes into getting things perfect. So much work goes into aftermarket products to make them fit like oem products.

Heres a few pics of my cf boot, the carbon has been laid perfect but the underside moulding was terribly out of shape cause the boot to fit okay but nowhere near the standard I want to achieve for this car. So i had to cut and remove the shape out of the boot and remould it to fit perfect, this took hours and hours of work to get right. What I ended up with is a perfect fitting cf boot which is really hard to get.

Reshaping of the boot, this was only the first stage I didnt get pics of the next stage.

Just a tip i found with taking pics of my car in sunlight; as your car also seems to have a pearl.

With my camera i have to press the button half way to focus, then continue pressing it to take the photo. If yours is the same, try to focus on something lighter (whiter) that is roughly the same distance from your car, then turn the lens to your car to take the photo. I found that the pearl "fools" the camera and the pic ends up over exposed.

Just to show you an example, i've added two pics of photos of my car.

This first i focused on my car, you can see the shot is totally over exposed. Have a look at the white 33 in the left corner, and the sandy gravel.

This second pic i focused on the white car, and i prefer to see my paint colour in this type of shade.

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • 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
