Rob what was changed though?

as really the rb25 head ports are the same as rb26, so i'd say your extra power was made from cam selection/solid lifters, head modification, intake plenum and the fact you are running 2psi extra boost. All which could be done to the rb25 head if someone was keen.

correct me if im wrong :thumbsup:

The 26 head was ported, oversize valves, 280 10.8mm cams, stock inlet, 6Boost manifold, Garrett T51r

The 25 head was ported, tomei 256in and 264ex cams, Greddy plenum, 80mm throttlebody, 6Boost manifold, Garrett T51r

Fair few differences, must have quite an idle with 280 cams :O

Who ported the head for you?? do you know what was done, was it ported for drag racing, outright power or mild post, smaller ports etc for all round performance? you running 1mm oversize on the intake and exhaust?

Do you have this going at the moment rob? or still having problems/rebuilding/upgrading :D

Proengines built the head after I was screwed over by a local mechanic (you know who)

Am running oversize on intake and exhaust. There was a flow chart posted on here somewhere of my head.

The engine has been in the car since August but just had to pull the sump off as it didnt seal. The goal is to have it running for powercruise next year.

We will fire it up on 98 and make sure everything is all good then will drop in the 2000s and get into the E85 :thumbsup:

    • 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.
