Sorry to hear that Juliette. Hopefully the Lancer can fly the FWD flag for this round.

Hi Bec - really sorry, I'm not going to be able to make DECA full stop now. Just ran into an unexpected expense with the Skyline on top of all the work being carried out to the Pulsar so I'm too short of money.

Don't you have your sisters wedding or something?

yeh but i organised to go up with several mates, already booked the motel and as it turns out my sisters wedding has been delayed :down: so i can't not come to deca even if i can't drive.

and after my enjoyable hospital visit today (another lost 4 hours), i can't take the cast off until the 8th of April

if you want to spot me at deca, just look for the cripple !

I'm sending good vibes your way. Aside from the lack of money/driving ability, I doubt the car would even be finished by DECA at the rate parts are taking to arrive.

All vibes appreciated Juliette.

Interesting re parts, is that because of the age of them or that they are specialized bits?

If you guys want a lift up for the day trip, I'm sure I can fit at least two more in the Lancer, otherwise good luck getting your mechanical problem sorted.

All that's holding it up is a billet input shaft from Asia. It arrived today but it was 0.2mm out of spec and meant it was too tight a fit. Another is being air-freighted over, the gearbox has been up in Sydney for a couple of weeks getting built and the car's been sitting on a hoist up in the air for about 5 weeks with no gearbox, front interior, etc. Lets just say, the gearbox and manual conversion is worth a fair bit more than my car would be stock haha. It's all worth it. I'll PM you closer to the time Clive, would love to take you up on that offer :D

Woohoo, manual conversion. Way to go will be worth the wait.

Should have thought tho' we could have done a dual entry on the day rather than you pulling out.

Not that my "rb18det" scuse me using the acronym, would be much of a comparison but at least it's manual.

Thanks for the offer but my manual driving's not up to scratch. I'd just watch :thumbsup:

Unfortunately I'm going to have to pull out as well...

I hope to still come up and leech a few passenger seat runs from other friendly drivers :blink:

Ash, get your car fixed and gimme a lift up to shep!

haha but it might be fun being a passenger coming for a few spins with you and a few others :P also wouldn't mind going in a 33 GTR to see how they go as i'm currently in the market for one.

Also cant wait until sat night we gonna have a couple of fishbowls or what davo :P

    • 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.
