Paul - be aware the 2540's will be horrible on the track. Especially the tracks you guys have where you are on and off the throttle a lot.

I know changing turbo's is no big deal but it is something to consider as for a track car they don't get much worse than 2540's for a set-up. (unless it has a 3.0L engine)

Everyone,

Firstly thanks for your input.

Although im going to track this R32 it still has to get me to work 2-3 times a week, thats about 5000km per year, the J-Boy thing looks nice but with the cage and everything else it is a little too trackie and not enough streetie for me. And the main thing is its in QLD and rego swap and that side of the hassle. Im keen to also learn the black art of suspension set up and do it my way.

After driving the 2540's Im happy, boost was on full at about 4000 rpm, and a fatter mid range is possible once the outlet and inlet is freed up from the restrictions (2.5 cat and STD airflow's) and cams are worked for mid range. Keep in mind I do have a 3lt animal donk ready to drop in so I think I will stick with the vspec.

I have had very few people telling we its a rip off and too expensive, so Im happy to part with the cash. I have advised that I will take the car and a deposit will be coming on Friday.

Thanks everyone for your opinions, and I will unveil the final product on the 2nd Aug once its completed and registered. Im taking the car for 2 weeks to track ready her before I push her round the track and put it on the road!

New post to come!

Thanks again everyone.

  • 2 weeks later...

FYI,

I have paid a deposit on the car and have it at home, I will pay for it in full next week when it gets registered.

The engine comes out this weekend to have the sump baffle put in, and a few there things as well. Beers will be on for anyone who wants to pop in, except fatz, he will slow production and drink all the resources!

    • 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.
