Hey guys,

hasn't been my week. went to a suspension place onsaturday and they told me that the rubbers on the ends of the swaybars are gone, so no biggy, get them replaced. then there was a crack in the castor rod, no probs get them replaced with a wheel alignment, now the whole thing feels tight with the new swaybars in place :rolleyes:. but I have had an electrical gremlin for a while so I left it at an electrician since monday morning. they think they have fixed the problem which makes my alarm go crazy and lose all power to everything in the car (no not the battery, that is only new). thought I might get the air confixed up while its there and they have had to retrofit it with the new gas because mine was R12. Thought that was weird cause mine is a 93 model, but oh well. called him up and now he said the air con is working intermittently, on 1 sec, off the next. so he is trying to work that out.

but also that before I took teh car down there, my bonnet catch bracket was a little rusty and has snapped, so I get my car back tommorow and it goes straight down to the smash repairer to get that fixed.

hope it goes well after this, I want to get my new brakes in the next few weeks which cost $1200 fitted with new pads and discs all round.

anyone else having a bad week?

    • 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.
