Did you guys push any threads through the seat to get a tight fit, or are the covers just slipped over the seats? I know someone has used spray-on adhesive to install them before, what i'm trying to work out is if they are removable or not.

I used most of the supplied strings through the seats and added some extra ones where it needed it. You can probably get away with just slipping them over because they are very tight fitting, but it wont look as good where the sunken contours are. At least if you use the strings you can always take the covers off later on and return to stock seats. I would not have bought these if they required adhesive.

So the strings go through the seats, or around them? Thanks

poked through the foam and then tied to other strings poked through or to anything else that looks solid at the back of the seat structure.

Thanks for the pic Mark, do you think if you took the covers off, you'd see the holes?

What about on the front seats - i cant see how it'd be possible to thread a hole through the seat - how do they fit?

Depends how and where you poke the string through. Most strings will go through at a seam in the seat so if the string comes out I dont think you will see the hole. I bought a big needle which was about 10cm long and used that to thread the string through. I tried poking the needle through the seat all the way through and out to check if a hole would be noticeable and it wasn't. At times I had to remove the string and the hole was not noticeable at all. The original material seems to be fairly elastic.

As for the front seats, I have a GTR so the original cover on the back of the seat can be unzipped to reveal the backing foam. The new seat covers are similar with zips at the back so you can put the cover over the old seat while still being able to thread the string through from the front. I then poked the string through the front of the seat through to the back and tied the strings together (since there is nothing else to tie them to). I then zipped up the original seat cover which hides the tied up strings then zip up the new cover to hide the old cover.

      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.
