I've got a black 33 S1. Pretty much stock at the moment, so if you see me around, don't forget to wave or something.

Most skylines that i see don't pay any attention to other skylines. I've only met 2 on the road to either gave me a little wave, or had a quick chat.

Really? Almost all other Skyline (and 180, etc) drivers always sneek a peek at my car when I drive past, and mine pretty stock looking (and I do the same, of course).

Whenever I can I try to take the opportunity to check out other peoples cars and have a chat - always fun.

Oh yeah, and I'm in the SE suburbs, and have noticed in the last 4 years more and more Skylines around. They've certainly come a long way from my dream car in Gran Turismo on the PSX! The more skylines out there the better I think - more spare parts! :uh-huh:

I get more other cars having a look. Most of them look at my wheels first and then give the once over the rest of the car. It is just skylines that don't pay too much attention to me.

But then again, I'm normally paying more attention to the road compared to checking if they are having a look. But if a line passes me, I've gotta check out what they have and if i should do that to my car.

I live near Hampton Park and it's funny - I always see all these Skylines with 40+ Indian mothers driving them around! It's a real crack up, especially the ones with venting BOV's :D. I go to drag them then realise who is driving it! Mum doing the shopping!

A few years ago many younger Indian (appearance) guys used to make a quick $ or two importing Skylines and selling them around my area, obvoiusly got stuck with a few and kept them as the family car! (hehehe just like when I was a kid on a fundraising chocolate drive - just sold them all to my family).

    • 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..
    • 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.
