hey guys

i have being reading around the site about lowering the stagea but they are all the rs4 versions, see i have a rs (RWD)

just wanted to know if the front springs are off the r32gtst would fit??? i have some sitting in the shed off my r32, being that it is rwd i thought i might be the same as a r33gtst front suspension (apparently r33/32 gtst have the same front springs).

plus what are the rear springs off r33 gtr or something.

cheers kenny :D

I'm no expert but I've been doing a lot of research on this subject lately. I got a rwd rs too, and yes the suspension is different. As far as I'm aware you can't use any skyline gear. Apparently it is possible to use modified sylvia shocks.

There are several brands that make aftermarket bits for the wc34 rwd's, s-tune, tien, kyg. I have contacted several people in Aus and I'm looking in to getting some bilstiens from the aus supplier, failing that I will order from NZ.

Apparently a laurel is the only thing that will bolt directly in. But that doesn't really help with availabilty.

Hope that helps

That makes sense since the Stagea is a C34 Laurel wagon.

You can FAST the OEM parts and then use parts master to see if there is any factory interchangeability - you never know what might turn up to be compatible.

      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

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      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.
