no, not the wire that goes to the bonnet pin. i'm asking about the black puck shaped thing with the plug and coloured wiring. its mounted to that steel bracket, just behind the pod.

That's not in my R33, thats for sure :)

I've helped a friend put a pod on his R33 too, and he definately doesn't have one either. I don't think I'm remembering incorrectly, but I don't recognise it at all

no its not rubber. its hard plastic.

here are some clearer pics.

the green line follows the wiring as it comes in through the guard and goes via the plug, directly into the top of the 'puck'.

there are no other wires coming in our out of the 'puck'.

the dotted line shows where it turns inside the guard, and heads rear-wards. i can follow it under the guard for about 200mm, before its hidden behind the inner guard.

the plug looks like the standard nissan plug, ie same type as the boost solenoid, so i thought it was something standard.

i dont think its that.

there's only one set of wires going in, and nothing out. why would the harness lead to the engine bay, and do nothing once it gets there? strange.

could this have anything to do with the blinkers?

heres a shot of the under side.

it had a shitty alarm when i bought it. may have been a rhino. but i got a decent one installed.

as far as a dealer fitted alarm, not as far as i know.

what kind of pics do you need? thats pretty much every angle of it.

the writing on the top says PSC-22 3X0

what happens when you disconnect the plug?

also what series is your 33?

its very odd

good question. i havent disconnected it yet. i wanted to know what it was first. i had no idea it would be anything out of the ordinary. i will try it tomorrow.

i will also try to trace that wiring and see where it leads.

its a '93, series 1.

could it have anything to do with the ecu? its a unichip with boost controller module attached. but as far as i know, that only consists of two pieces which are both behind the kickpanel.

^ thanks mate. i'm still not sure what it is.

here are some more pics.

this is the path it takes into the cabin, behind the glove box.

there is a constant 12v at the red wire.

notice how its wrapped in the protective foam, as if it were factory fitted? confusing, because those joiners dont look factory :)

    • 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
