i wouldn't be rushing out to buy one.... nearly twice the price of 6Boost and not tuned length (from what i can see)...

doesn't look as nice either.... the only thing better is the twin wastegates (if you wanted this option)

but if you asked Kyle to do it he would...

Just my 2 cents...

Not really sure what you mean by "tuned length" . Geoff works off pressure drop through each runner not length which is the proper way to go about it . Neither the engine or the turbo care about equal length but with manifold pressure its a different story .

Your call , search around the web about FullRaces exhaust manifolds . The usual dilemma is can you afford them or not , not do they work or not .

If it were me and the cost wasn't an issue I know what I'd do .

great design runners and collect

full race make realli good manifolds but i dont like the idea of using stainless for manifolds

stainless just doesnt compare to mild steel steam pipe imo

even the highest grade stainless will have a higher chance of cracking where as mild steel steam pipe is so strong that they can be sold with life time warranty

spend some time going threw this thread

pages 3 and on wards have alot of good info u should read up on

As above. I also have a stainless nismo gtstr manifold factory fitted up to the car in 1987. Came off for hpc coating year or two ago and no signs of any fatigue let alone cracking anywhere.

Whatever stainless they used it sure as hell is thick as the manifold weighs a tonne.

my stainless has developed some cracks.. have welded them back together but thats a short term fix..

theres a reason kyle offers lifetime warranty on his steam pipe manifolds... will be upgrading to 6boost once the manifold starts to leak again.

yeah reliability isnt a problem with good stainless mani's, although i would like to see what heat retention is like between mild and some thick, high grade stainless

thermal conductivity for stainless is much lower than your typical mild steel

I would spend the extra and go full race in a heartbeat, currently have 6boost and looking to make the change if that gives you any idea.

Full-Race also offers life time warranty to original purchaser.

    • 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.
