Put some Autosol on the buffer and work some automated magic perhaps ?

do you do weddings and birthday parties ? id pick of ronald anyday !

ha ha you are all funny... i work with aluminium and polish most of the day as we custom fabricate alloy stuff, and if you can polish with wet and dry and autosol to look as good i'll pay you a weeks wages ha ha its a lot harder than that dude, but good thought. If you were in melbourne i could do it for ya, i done my whole engine bay, i.e. cooler and piping, catch can, cold air box, rocker covers etc looks the shit.

I would have thought you could have buffed it similarly to how I've see them do stainless exhausts on the wheel...

A whole engine bay full of shine ? Damn that'd be impressive...

Still waiting for someone to do the exterior of the car too...society is still stuck on paint...and other non-blinding surfaces...

predator666: You will be able to polsih to an extent but still wont have the shine of something properly polished. FIndign someone who will take the time to make it perfect is hard also... i hate having things on my car that aren't 100%, so i made sure when i did my stuff it was perfect... i guess in the end it does make a difference. But i'm sure you can do it with that autosol cos i use it on my muffler, but wouldn't bother on anything else.

Jimbo2000: Yep strip the paint, sand it, polish it then buff it... will come up like any other polished alloy item.

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • 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
