Oh I see its using the same units as the Torque.

Its crap because the difference between 10 and 15 in afr is massive whereas on that graph its only 5% of the chart.

yea its annoying when trying to check just where its at for the afr.

i thought i just explained the valve spring issue.......

your asking the standard spring to pull the valve shut with 3 times the boost pressure acting against it. It was not designed to do this. You might also want to research what cams will fit without major head modification. remember it is still a hydraulic engine.

i honestly think you are chasing a unicorn mate, your graph shows excellent power/torque in the mid range and tapers off towards top of rev range. this is typical of a turbo falling out of its efiiciency range. big turbo cars dont make the mid range power you are making, and at the end of the day it is more usable power anyway. who cares about the peak figure.

give it a run and i think you will be happy.

unfortunatly no valve spring upgrade done, thought about it at the time of build but was informed they are relativly good from the start, but if i end up pulling the head again which is on the cards then a valve and cam upgrade are on the cards, bullit cams and somewhere around the 282deg area will be where im looking. there are a few other cars on this site making big power with standard motors and huge turbos so cant see why i really need to change valve springs.

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      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
