Hi all,

As you may or may not be aware next year (2009) will mark twenty years since the R32 GTR first rolled off the production line. So im thinking lets do something to celebrate.

The way i see it, we've got a whole year to prepare. So that gives us heaps of time to organise things like venue, dates, events, possibly guest speakers, things like that.

I rekon the style of event should be something for everyone. Possibly at a racetrack, or somewhere like DECA, where we can have on track events, show and shines, maybe trade stands and other attractions.

We could try and get certain "hero cars" to attend, e.g. gibson motorsport godzilla's. Maybe even try to get guest speakers like Jim Richards or Mark Skafe.

Im thinking BIG! something that will get coverage in things like magazines, ignition dvd etc...

I also think that an event like this will have no trouble in attracting sponsors to help out in putting this all together. And it can only do good things for the reputation of SAU.

Now i want your opinions and ideas on how we can make something like this happen.

So come on everyone, post away...

Cheers,

Matty.

brilliant idea and i think it should be at a track so you can have show and shines and stands and cruise along the track and stuff like that.

we should have it as a fundraiser so SAUVIC can buy a r35gtr and every memeber gets to have it for a day :) .

I'm not old enough to remember/know, but the GTR was known from winning races on Mount Panorama? Maybe we could organise a huge cruise up to the the mountain itself?

I don't know, just throwing ideas around.

Nah, I haven't seen any of the races which had GTRs in it to be honest. The GTRs were dominating when I was born/learning how to eat. hahaha.

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win?

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      By f00stx · Posted

      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
