Pretty sure a VLT sender works, I think that's what my mates apprentice used when he put the 25 in his VL Calais.

But as Cubes said, why recreate the wheel? a new Navara sender is pretty cheap and if you can't find the part number, I've still got the box at home.

Sorry to bring up an older thread, but rather this then start a new one.

I am not concerned with having a speedo reading as I use my GPS, as it provides other readouts as well. But without a speed signal the car will override the top speed setting (320kmph Nistune ECU) and I will have no power steering.

Is there anyway to to trick to speed signal so that power steering works.

I expect most of you will just say use the navara speedo and just don't care if its uncalibrated, I will if there is no other way...of course.

There is no one speed setting, at low speed the power steering is light and at high speed its heavier. If you connected a signal wire you would have heavy steering all the time. Without a signal the power steering is still working its just very light which is not a bad thing unless you like driving with no hands at high speed. I drove/drifted my 32 for over a year without a speedo signal going to the power steering.

cant use a rb20 shifter in a 25 box unfort

the balls on the end of the shifter are much bigger on the 25

20 shifter will just float around in it

The balls on the shifters are the same, the nylon bush is a different size. You can swap them over and the rb20 shifter drops straight in the RB25 box. The shifter position was identical from the rb20 box to the rb25.

I used my C's RB25 shifter in my RB20 box ages ago and all I had to do was swap the RB20 bush on and then shim up the clamp-housing-thing because the neck of the RB20 box was shorter than the RB25 box.

    • 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
