Stacey just bought this RB30 powered machine.

http://www.carsales.com.au/all-cars/privat...=vl&trecs=2

Its in unbelieveable condition and although it looks the goods in the photo's its even better in real life.

She squeezed the seller over the price and picked it up for considerably less than what they were asking.

I have 4 complete long engines in the shed including a factory turbo item. Im planning on building an exchange engine for it running a GT35R, external gate, intercooler, exhaust and controlled by a Vi-PEC plug in.

Will post up some build details when it commences.

So are you building a forklift now?

Maranello Red? ferrari inspirated straight from the factory

i had a vl turbo & ran a bmw m3 (2004 model) from stand still up to 200km & it was dead equal, mine was stock apart from an intercooler & 15psi.

god it was funny though with his paddle shift changing gears frantically whilst im in my auto looking at him in amazement. vl's are very light & quick, just tell stace to watch those brakes (especially after boost as the booster is grossly undersized) & the handling is very scary at high speeds (i almost lost it doing over 100km in a sweeper)

Blaming Stacey for the hidden inner bogan aye Paulie...Thats low man. :(

lol...the fella asked her if it was for her or me. hehe.

Im unsure why you think the bogan in me is actually hidden...i drink Jack, love cars and am a fan of boobs. Bogan through and through id say...lol

Straight older cars are the shiz though.

    • 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.
