Those designs above look really good! The red GTS one is alot better than the previous ones in this thread.

I dunno about the black GTS though, maybe if that S was in silver..

R3Load, the initial design is to be credited to DARKBOY, its his inital drawing. ;)

But you are right its better than previous designs, i changed the "S" to look a little more "authentic" when compared to the original "R".

The "T" will hopefully satisfy those GTT owners!!

I wanted a black for the the front grill of my car and a red for the rear.

The red will highlight the tail lights and the Black will suit the no mess look front i am creating.

SIK14 what do you think , can you do this??

DARKBOY can we use this combined design?

:D

I quite like what you've done with the S actually and I understand your reasons for adding the 'serifs' to it. I merely designed the S that way because it reflects the S from the Skyline logo.

Anyway well done!

TY will do ...

Hey Ronin33 ummm this is a little off topic but where did you get your front bar put on it looks pretty good from your sig :)

Gday Chris ,

I have a couple of pics posted here if you'd like a closer look.

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...p;#entry2595685

I got it from Carmate in NSW.

http://www.carmate.com/old/

Item code: NSGTS97GTR2FB

I had it painted from a local paintshop and fitted it myself.

I mounted the indicators behind the mesh and it worked out pretty well i think.

Be aware, there are those who had bad experiances with them and those like myself who had no worries.

There is a thread around here somewhere. I tried to find it but but no good.

Have chat to the asian fella there if you go that far, the other fellas a wanker (IMO).

:P

Ok this is the story so far ...

1.It can be done.

2. The badges will be made of an aluminium backing plate and UV resistant resin cut to sise in our colours of choice (the cheapest way being if we all choose the same colours) and double sided tape.

3. I need someone who is good at drawing (or modeling) to do a detailed drawing for me to send to the company so that they can program the machines to do the work.(I'll have a go at it but I'm not the best.

4. They haven't given me a price yet but it looks as though its going to be fairly cheap because I can buy them through the business.

5. Once they are ready to be made I'll start a group buy. ;)

p.s. I'm doing this all by phone conversation and I'm having some difficulty so bear with me please ;)

sweet, loox like this is underway, ive asked ever one ive seen for a gts badge. damn fools with gtr badges, maby we should buy some and place them on fake gtr's. hehe.. cant wait to see the end result of these, ima buy a couple for backup, incase they get stolen on the car :).. hey, i think a straight silver gts badge would like awesome, only if it could be stainless steal looking i guess.. like that greenish r33 in the fast 4s mag, if you all know it, i think some one in this topic had a pic as there signature.

Count me in on a GTS Badge too!! The billet looking one from Ignition DVD is by far the best option. Then if you want to personalise it its up to you... :laugh:

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

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

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      By f00stx · Posted

      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
