By smooth i mean it doesnt look like it will take a finger off if you touched an edge...but you did just say you have been playing with it for a while....im just wonding the best way to cut and bend it to shape.

i do alot of work with 2mm and 3mm aluminium... i use a bandsaw to cut out most shapes, a die grinder to smooth the edges... than a deburring tool to take the corners off... they are the best things ever!!!

bout $20 and they'll last for ever.

there are double edged ones that do both sides in one go... but they are double the price.

give me 30k and ill have one built in under 6 months.

you realy want the series 2 because thats when you learn from mistakes and have already fixed all the dud ideas.

But bens is a series 2 for me as a lot of RnD of ideas has been done to my car.

funnily enough the targa car i looked after 2 years ago is for sale and its 15K and about half way developed. Bilstines haltech seats cage big brakes light wheels. just needs some of the finer things done.

Are you not better off putting the ECU on the transmission tunnel so it isnt getting kicked?

Any info on the one for sale for 15k?

At 30k i think they still represent decent value, provided its registered. I have alwasy joked with mates that if i had a clue how to i would make a one make R32 GTSt series...It would be a blast! :cool: But half the fun with this sort of car is really the build, doing things, everything just how you like it.

By the time the Nav foot rest is made it shouldn't be an issue, also with the sea so far back it's less likely to be kicked.

I've made sure i've kept paying the rego on mine, cbf putting it over the pits.

The 15k gtst is black, std body kit but with gtr alloy bonnet+grill. R32 GTR rims+brakes. Cage, extingisher, isolation switch..ect. Pretty sure it's got 2 sparco seats and harnesses. 3" exhaust and dump, Haltech E11v2

after having worked on plenty of race cars with electrical dramas you get over trying to bend around roll cages so im putting it all in the one spot.

this was all designed with a specially built foot rest in mind.

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • 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
