Hey, well im new here.

My name is Sam, 20 yrs and counting.

Bought myself a skyline R31 GX 3.0L, completely stock and thought I had better join the skyline club as I am interested in modifying this little beauty of a car. Havent really done much with it yet, just have to sort out a few bugs with it (ticking exhaust and wheel alignment). Will have pics up asap, just let me get home and to a decent camera.

Anyway, Looking forward to seeing what I can do to this car, and what others have done to theirs.

OK forgot to add, it has the RB30E engine, and the exhaust is getting fixed by a mate who used to work for nissan. Getting a muffler for it, and it lowered within the next 2 weeks. Going to just go to 17" rims as I honestly cbf with the paper work involved in 19".

I would however like to know what people recommend I do to improve the engine, if I can turbo it w/e. I honestly dont know what I can do to it at this stage, so any input is helpful. Ive been reading around and asking around as much as I can.

Thanks in advance,

-Sam

wooo Sam's rock!

welcome to the forum. What state are you in? how old/what licence do you hold?

What you can and can't do.. legally.. depends on those questions :P

Otherwise check out the N/A section and the RB30 section as im sure there would be a lot of info there on what you can look at doing to your car.

    • 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
