lol. yeh i got it done. It looks good it took me so long because in the end i found out it wasnt the globes or the upside down positioning of the sockets, it was actually 2 sockets were blown or not working (tested a working globe in a working position and still didnt work). to fix that problem i took the soscket from the little fuel light, put the led in that, then put it on my temperature gauge then presto all my dash is now green. i bought blues aswell incase i get bored of green.

Thankyou very much Granthem and Howie! Cheers boys I appreciate your help a lot!

PICS !!!!

Bumpage...

I'm stuck, mega stuck...

I've got the steering column covers off, the black and clear plastic gauge covers are off also, basically I can nearly entirely remove the entire gauge cluster out of the dash...

God I wish I had a digital camera, so difficult to explain in text...

Just not sure how to get to the LED's to swap them over, I've done everything else...

There are a couple of plugs (three I think) going into the back of the gauge cluster, I tried having a go tonight but I didn't want to hack my way through it... Can they be removed or not???

:P

Halp!

      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.
