from memory i think the torque is 100ft/lbs for headstuds. and i dont recall there ever being any problems with stud length in the head. Only problems with studs for the mains for the three long ones which you need to use some out of a different motor vg30 or something which you use two washers on. Hopefully im pretty close to being accurate, if not surely someone else will clear it up.

Thanks Micheal, Its just that on the back of the box they give 3 differnt torques for 3 different tensiles, but how do you know what tensile you got, then in the box they put a paper that says 70ftlb i think.

my builder told me today that we cant use all 14 arp headstuds. Apparenty the two for the middle of the head will cause oil gallery issues. So we going to opt to replace them with two standard ones instead. Has anyone used all 14 headstuds? This is for a NEO head onto a rb30 block. Im abit concerned as we going to push 2bar of t04z and NOS.

I bought my set the other week and im not too sure on this but do you use the allen key at the top of each stud to put them into the block and then torque them up or just leave them hand tight and do all the torqing from the top end once the head is on? May sound stupid but I dont want to f**k this up!!

      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

      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.
