Hi all,

I've been told by a friend that the West Gate Bridge is closed due to the wind. Bolte Bridge may be closed this afternoon towards 5pm.

A friend in the Water Police said a boat sank after coming loose from its mooring earlier..!

Winds are expected to reach 100-130km/hr, so take it easy on the roads today and people have been 'urged' not to drive unless really necessary and something about leaving the city if possible..

My workmate said today 'wouldn't it be funny if the roof came off' and not 5mins later... part of the warehouse roof was flying around.. lol..

Anyway take it easy

Around me looks like a bloody hurricane has come through. Just popped up to the post office and it's like a war zone.

There are trees everywhere, shit all over the road, multiple trees blocking the roads, pine cones and needles like snow drifts.

My internet is in and out, lights are dimming and coming back on.

It's madness!!!

A guy around the corner is going to love coming home to this.....

Our showroom in Richmond is now part-convertible :rant:

Some poor, brave tradies are up there now fixing it. One of them nearly blew away so he cracked it and went home. Part of the roof landed on one of the Weltmeister mechanics cars. Another interesting day...

My mum works for the Botanic Gardens - she said today is the first time EVER they have evacuated all the people and closed the gardens!

Crazy!

Not too sure about your area/line, but mine was working (Dandenong line). Trains not on their 'normal' platforms and bit of a confusion here and there, but nothing too bad.

Trains are running to Box Hill then buses are used to get to the rest because of trees on track.

      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.
