yeah all bolted on gonna see how it goes but still looking for a good bare head..

id build you one but my head guy is soooo slllloooowwww that you wouldn't have it till next year!

if he didn't do such a bloody good job id send them elsewhere...he's starting to piss me off somewhat.

its an unfortunate way of the world that when someone is so good they are in high demand...but my patience is starting to run out with this one...who takes 6 weeks off at christmas thats not at school?

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. damn straight such a wang he is......

just like the guy down further aswell ant... good on v8's cant stand the fidly 6's.... i walked out wen he was talking to me bcuz he was just spinning me shit... + he told me to buy a 26 head cuz there hydraulic so he doesnt need to shim them up wen building it.... i laughed in his face and said well thats how much u know and walked out....

and i was refering to my head earlier pauly.... has he kept going on it or still lazing around??

also paul... those shims i saw in the oil pump box.... wat did u end up doing with them... i figured they are to shim up the pressure release valve to increase or decrease the pressure????

thats correct....they wont be required...but mark will check the pressure on start-up to see if they are needed. ive already addressed this with him and he said with the clearances ive used the pump should be ok out of the box.

ok sweet not that im trying to double check ur work or nethin i just wanted to know wat actually went into it etc.... tis good to know for future reference

ill write 'oil pump shims' on the packet so you know what they are for.

done deal....

Red R Racing RB28 T04Z 272 Stage 2.5 Head tuned by Godzilla...running RWD.

Sounds good eh ?

there only 270's paul.... also it sounds like a pain in the arse on the street tis all i will say lol

have also been discussing with paul my exhaust housing size.... atm ive got a .81 but the .96 housing seems that it may have been a better option... the only problem is to the manifold i have is single entry not twin entry so im gonna have to check if they make a single entry .96.... will also have to get the housing made to suite my wastegate inlet pipe... ahhh more mucking around

it will be nice and responsive with the 0.81...if you want less response and more top end i think the 0.96 would suit. Dave's 2.6 doesn't seem to want to make any more than 450awkw with the .81 no matter what i do to the tune or fuel type. Ive put it down to the rear housing being unable to flow the air mass...you having the extra 200cc and a better head will find it even tougher to 'move' the air through it...hence the idea of the larger rear.

Being a RWD though the 0.81 might be easier on the tyres, driveline and might be easier for you to keep it pointing in the direction you actually want to go. :)

my thoughts exactly.... either way im pricing up a .96 rear made to suite so we'll see how much they are..... but seriously 450rwkw should be plenty through a street cars rear wheels only...

just double checking since u didnt reply that plate that sits behind the cams gear did u strip the paint off it. or is it still all good...

    • 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.
