Sounds like we live within a few minutes of each other Boostzor, I have seen a few supras like yours floating around the Bullcreek/Willetton area but to be honest haven't looked to closely at them to see if they ahd the same mags as you.

Question:

For ppl who have run a 1/4 before what sort of launch rpm do you use and how different is it from the rpm you use on the street? higher...lower??

Just trying to get a rough idea of what to try on the 18th.

I think Gradenkowas saying launch at around 5.5 when on street its like 4.7. I launch alot earlier so im not sure about the lines.

Leaving work to go get my car back now minus one wheel (spare) and one flat battery due to the fact its been left off the road soo long. *does the anti-moron dance*:D :burnout:

In theory, my safc is at the post office on monday, if i can get it in, boosted and tuned next week, im there too. If not, ill watch, its always good seing commodores get eaten by, well anything, theyre always "WTF".

Doesnt the price to race include a temporary andra licence and insurance?

They are the drag racing governing body. They take care of licencing, rules, all the boring stuff. To drag race you have to have an andra licence, thats part of the fee you pay to race at the plex. Theres some info there, and some on the plex site, that tells you exactly what you get for your money.

Well I just got the KCA349 parts fitted for maximum traction (not drift :P ) and I must say I give it the big thumbs up. Definately getting more traction on takeoff and cornering (rear end seems much stiffer) which is all good when you've got 0.8bar running through the turbo (the back end was getting too tail happy). So if its dry on sunday and cool I'll be down there trying to get into the high 13's.

    • 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
