what dont you know when to change gears, and if you really want to do it the get the manual it has ecu pin outs there

like my self who wants a shift light because my cars got a after market ECU and dose not have any of the saftys any more it would be a good help for the best time to shift to get the max power out of your car

Hey mate,

there no need for personal attacks on this forum, just for your information i lived in yass for about 6 months and finished high school there if you cared to look i live in adelaide atm but have travelled round australia what does it matter where someone comes from if they have technical info that could help you. Im an electronics technician by trade and my car has had a fair bit done to it, which i researched every step of the way. I often have freinds from all around the country calling me up me asking me to help with there cars whether it be a problem or the next upgrade step and even on this forum i have had ppl pm me asking for help or information. I can see your a new member but thats not the way we operate on this forum if you have a good technical argument go for it. So you just made yourself look like a total tool champ by doing that.

if you go to paulr33's profile and look at his web site he has the pin out for rb25det. just did it the other day coz my tacho died. from memory it was a blue wire with yellow strip but dont quote me yours might be different. Im sure you will find it if you do a search.

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
