R33 Service Manual - Who wants to pitch in to buy one?


Recommended Posts

Guys, I know everyone would love to own a copy of this publication, and while its a bit too much to be bought by oneself, if we all pitched in and bought a copy there's no law against us all buying one copy and passing the one copy around. Basically the you can grab it off the last person who had it when you need it n keep it till sum1 else wants it.

The manual is about $200 or less, so basically if 10 people pitched in 20 bucks we could buy it. It apparently covers all models of R33s.

Since the manual has to be passed around, it requires that all people in the group buy are in the same city, so this is only open to residents of melbourne.

I will make sure that all people who put their hands up for this are people who are known and credible, so that no one is tempted to "lose" the manual and stuff it up for every1 else.

I would definately be interested and would be willing to chuck in $20 bucks.

Tell me though, are we allowed to make a "back-up copy" just in case the original gets lost?

what you do with it is up to you, the rest of us won't be liable for the repercussions. The way I see it, its like me buying the book n lending it to you, I can't stop you from photocopying it, but you will have breached copyright.

Im not someone to break the law. But im still interested.

Surely there are more people in Melbourne who are interested in the R32 manual?

And no freeloaders, funky, i take it it will not be lent to people who havent put in?

yeah got the GTR one, I'm assuming the R32 Service manual would have everything though, coz that's what it says on the blurb.

i guess a similar group buy could be done for the R33 manual... actually seeing as I'm gettin an RB25DET swap I'll need it, yeah I'll put $20 in for one... I'll create a thread for it...

Greetinz Funkymonkey,, where have you seen this manual for $200 or less,,i just ask because everywhere i have seen it ,,it is around the $240 to $250 mark before shipping ...........

more plebs want the r33 manual i suspect hehe... nah I need a copy too coz I'm puttin an RB25DET into my car n need to know all the fiddly bits n circuit diagrams

some rules will have to be established I guess.

minimum keep time is 3 days

whoever loses it has to pay out the contributions in full to the contributors

it cannot be loaned to anyone outside the group of contributors

whoever had it last keeps it till it is wanted by someone else

    • 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
