don't really think you would need to pay for advice..just ask the questions here or use the search function..most questions has been covered before already..anyway good luck with finding your car :)

if you want someone to have a look with you your best bet is to find a couple of cars you like and see where they are then let us know on here to see if someone is close to it so we dont have to go far out of the way to help you, i am happy to help i live 5 minutes from the city so anywhere around here send me a PM.

hey mate i could come with if needed...

as i bought my car with a few problems and knowing them and also ran into a lot of problems, it's not hard to tell if the car is a lemon to >_<

also might be worth getting an RAC check as well on the car.. mine was fairly helpful :down:

Like Rhys said a good old RAC check is always a decent idea.

And if it is a private sale and the owner doesn't mind alot of workshops will check the car out for a fee if the car is brought to them.

Thanks for the response and help guys, current mechanics are more than welcomed lol. There's a lot of hate towards the RAC checks saying that if they were only good for normal cars like the getz. Anyway, PMs sent to you 2 who offered! hopefully we can work something out.

Apparently i can't send more than 1 PM. Phil i see you live south of the river which is also where the car is at. Also, i can give you a lift there and back too. My number is 0433337256, call or text me if you're up for it.

Btw, i did a REVS check on the car, it said:

This vehicle or vessel is not recorded on REVS. It does NOT have money owing on it.

now is that a good thing or a bad thing to not be recorded on REVS?

    • 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.
