I ran last weekend at the Symmons Plains 60th annaverary meet. Unfortunately after a good run the engine decided to throw a rod.  I've got the engine out but havn't pulled the sump off yet, I suspect

So it’s been over a year since an update. The first event last year was the Poatina Mountain Race, it was pretty much a 7km hill climb with the option for a navigator. I put my girlfriend in the sil

Looks the goods, only how the hell do you get into it? LOL, i would struggle to get in and out of that jungle gym :down:

practice. i think the best way is to sit on the intrusion bar with your feet in the car, then slide in. I will be putting a removable wheel in though.

the cage work looks great, i like the boxed front legs as well. I remember reading something about the intrusion bars had to be minimum 100mm up from the base plates on the front legs and hoop, is this true? or is it from the floor? or did i read wrong?

They must meet no further than 100mm away from the base of the leg/hoop.

And all intersecting bars must meet within 100mm of each other.

YT's old R34 we ran in 07/08 was like that cage, bloody hard work getting in/out! lol

Nothin better than pinching a nerve in your neck when getting in 3 minutes prior to a stage! lol, good strong cages but :D

Did that have the horizontal bar? I just cant seem to recall it cos there was so much room to swing your helmet back there?

Timmy, no, it didn't have a full diagonal, but rather two smaller diagonals behind each seat. They were welded about 50cm from the top and upper sides in the centre hoop.

I found a pic that kinda shows the bars....... and our intensity! lol. Just zoom in on it a bit.;

Deano, we run a PFC in ours, scrounged 2nd hand, but would love a Motec!

I'm trying to find a PFC Pro to run in mine, will be a modified GTR one though.

YT said my cage is very similar to his R34's. Cams have now banned those small braces on the main hoop...they will let you run a empty main hoop though

Interested in what computers people going to be running with their RB20? I'm looking into running the stock one with nistune on it for my motor.

Most rb20 guys if they know it can be done will put in a RB26dett power FC. you cant go past one for ease and cost. untill you get into the top end nothing comes close.

they display knock - not many others will.

the hand controller is fing porn and handy.

if you run the rb26 one over the AP engineering item you can run the air intake temp sensor that will detune the car as it heats up allowing to tune the car more aggressively to temperature.

i could go on but im out of time.

oh and Not on the cage. i think ben got it made with a small opening so i cant fit in it as im getting fatter and fatter. lol

      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

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      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.
