im leaving for bali on thursday so when i get back im heading to boostworx, ET and a few other places to get some more power and a new alarm considering what happened last time :P and coilovers to drop it on its guts

every panel was stripped from the car and painted individually so you cant even tell it was another colour

Looks the part :rolleyes: Unfortunately mine is going back to Doyle's AGAIN, been having serious problems with the paint work, apparently one of their suppliers have had dodgy batches of paint or something along those lines so I'm looking forward to getting my problems sorted once and for all :thumbsup: May I ask roughly how much a full respray like that cost?

that sucks man, hope you get it sorted.

cant give you an perfect price as insurence took most of the cost away becasue of damage cost when someone tried breaking into my car but with everything i would say around 6k-7k give or take with kit and all panels taken off and sprayed

Cheers bud, hopefully this time will be the last time I'll have to take it back. Was toying with the idea of getting mine resprayed but seeing as I'll probably be selling soon it's not worth it, better off doing it on the next car

very nice job mate.

Good luck with the cops and the offset of those rear rims though - 1st Saturday night down the Bay or Anzac International Raceway and you're toast with a defect station.

been there done that, defected for that once before. once i lower it the irs should handle how much it sticks out plus abit of camber :D

the offset makes the car look abit better i think though too

Looks sweet, great colour for a show car.

Make sure you get an alarm ASAP - don't put it off, so much scum in this world!

dont worry dude, im not sparing a cent when it comes to alarm after what happened last time.

thanks for the comments guys :D

    • 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.
