3rd place- #22 Pro-Staff R Magic FD3S Mazda RX-7 (Best Lap: 55.947sec, Top Speed: 217.742 km/h)

fastest rx7 this year... but it was beat by 2 GTR's.. R34 me thinks :ermm: but 55.94 secs is fkn quick lol

Was it just me or did that rx7 have much more stick than the GT-R did on the straighter parts of the track? I think the 35 did very well. Was not completly outclassed in the corners and braking, and hasnt had 12 years of development like the rx7 does too. Very impressive for its weight. Now Mr Nissan, can we have a lightweight version of this car!

Thats a fairly heavily developed rx, the gtr sounds almost whisper quite in comparison.... Was it just a stock road car?

Sorry I don't speak Japanese...but I did catch them say the rx had a killer engine.

Was a fun clip, thx.

what im waiting for tho is when someone is able to do a full transplant of the 35R running gear into a 34/33/32r chassis. that would be a major task but imagine the possibilities???!!

the R32/33/34 weigh around 300kgs lighter then the 35r.. that thing will easily do 10's on the stock engine and road tyres maybe!

35 GT-R will do 10's on the stock engine on stock tires with stock interior so obviously a lighter car would do it too.

There's probably 100kg + of wiring and electronics, strenghtening the chassis to take the weight and power.

Doubt it'd come in much under the r35's weight, if at all.

Haha you have to be kidding me.

No interior, CF bits etc.

Heres the real kicker - The GTR is on stock standard tyres - so the faux pas R-Comps

The FD is on real deal Advan R-comps.

Id love to see it re run with both cars on the same tyres, the RX7 would get hosed.

On street tyres the RX7 would have no traction, and the GTR on R-comps would have so much more grip.

Expected result anyhow, highly modded FD which are a fantastic handling car as is versus light modded heavy and big car.

Nah I'm not kidding at all...so why not strip the r35 and swap some carbon fibre panels.

Like for like... by the time all the added electronics are moved across and you strengthen the chassis of the r34 to handle it + new mounting points ect. You can't just slap it in there and throw some plates on it.

It'd be very close in weight... Just think about it a little.

Because MCR havnt gotten that far with the car - I have no doubt sooner rather then later it will lose its interior, sound deadening, and anything it doesnt need.

At the time of filming the car wasnt that far developed.

Your telling me that the FD has added 300kg or so by putting in a boost controller, ecu, intercooler and bigger brakes?

Put the pipe down.

RE Amemia churnes out the most insane Rotors ever.

But my son of rajab can Tsuchiya drive! Look at that steering work!

He's overdriving the car.

Any racer will tell you that. Even i was told when i was racing superkarts that "less is more" - the less input through the wheel, the faster you will be grasshopper.

It makes sense - wheel movement costs you time.

Simple as that.

I'm not saying anything about the fd at all...never did.

Now for a 3rd time.

I was replying to the suggestion that an r34 with r35 running gear would be lighter than the r35 because the r34 is "300kg"lighter than an r35. As I said previously..........

By the time you put all the running gear across plus the shit load of electronics and plumbing to match, strengthen the chassis and fabricate new mounting points it will no longer be 300kg lighter.

You say the r34 is 300kg lighter, I say when every thing is swapped over there wouldn't be much in it.

You went off on some tangent re: put carbon fibre bla bla....then I said you could do the same with the r35 so why bother?

So like for like.. you build an r34/5 street car or track car it'll end up around the same as a comparable r35.

Your lack of basic comprehension is astounding. Still got an issue?

Put he pipe down????? insulting little shit...

Get a clue.

Just to clarify teh R35 does have exhaust and breathing mods and upgraded suspension and light weight carbon/kevlar Bride seats. And Advan Neova are not semi slicks, they are performance tyres much like what the GTR was running. If anything they are a generation behind the Dunlops so not as good a tyre.

    • 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  
    • 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.
