Hi,

I've owned my R33 GTST for around 18 months and have gradualy built it up from stock with the aim of having a good track day car, I still have a way to go but have done a lot already and decided to detail all the work and track day experiences etc on my own website

http://www.r33skylineproject.co.uk

the site will be regularly updated as well

enjoy

Paul

Here are the main steps to date from stock to 400bhp roughly in order

I guess its your typical build really but its my first car I've modified got my hands dirty along the way and learnt a hell of a lot about engines etc, can't see me stopping just yet...

Stage 1 remap - standard turbo at 0.8 bar of boost

Wanted to sort out the handling so did suspension mods : Whiteline ARB \ camber arms and then a geometry setup

Stage 2 setup - Hybrid turbo (Garrett internals) \ Z32 AFM \ Apexi turbo pipe \ HKS downpipe \ SARD 550cc injectors \ gaskets

17" GTR alloys (existing alloys needed 20mm spacers and don't like doing track time with spacers)

Engine bay from when stock (just fitted air filter pod) to now

Since the day I've bought a set of semi-slicks - Federal 565 RSRs and I have a NISMO 2 way diff to fit, I also have a fibreglass boot with genuine GTR spoiler which has been modified so the spoiler blade sits higher and is fully adjustable and finally have a rear diffuser to spray black and fit as well - loking forwards to the next track day with this little lot fitted :)

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win?

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      By f00stx · Posted

      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
