Hey guys,

Last weekend I went to the BP Nostalgia Car Show in Odaiba. For months I had been seeing the advert for this thing posted all around the Tokyo metro area and, me being a such an old car "otaku", there was no way I was going to miss this show. The pricetag for admission was a steep 2000 yen, so expectations were quite high on my part. The show, however, did not disappoint. With some of the rarest cars Japanese sportscars present (including numerous vintage Skylines, a stable of Toyota 2000GT's, along a booth from Dome) it was certainly a show to remember. Be sure and check it out when it rolls in to your part of Japan!

I've spent the last day trying to sort through all the photos, but I could only manage to get the album down to around 100. Also, I haven't had time to crop and color correct, so apologies in advance.

Here's a bit of a preview...

Thanks Steve... just like you said you would :P

I can't imagine how much that convertible 2000GT is worth..

Some nice Z's in there too

I remember reading they chopped the top off one for a James Bond movie. Could it be the same car? Anyone know if there was more than one convertable 2000GT made?

Awesome pics... The 2000GT race car is by far the best car there (well to me anyway!) It's like a Japanese E-Type jag with its smooth classic curves; hot!

To my knowledge the gt in the bond movie was not a production car and was built from the ground up esp. for the film. It is therefore not included in the production numbers.

Damn there are some nice cars there, imagine how much it would cost to get reg and insurance on them.....

Was it a big Expo, i dont know much about this one?

Cheers

Compared to Tokyo Auto Salon, it was tiny. :) I'd guess around 50-70 cars but I could be wrong. For this show, however, it was better to have quality over quantity.

      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

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      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.
