Hey everyone,

Well approx last weekend (Saturday) night, i gave a seller an sms who had pm'd me a few days earlier about a power fc which he had for sale. This person pm'd me via boost crusing forum, some of you may know ive been trying to find a Power Fc however with not much luck locally in Perth, I sms'd the seller. I asked for photos however he said he didn’t have a camera to take photos with, therefore i asked for the Serial number of both the Power FC itself and the hand controller. He sms'd me those details without any problems so i thought he must be legit. We organised postage Via express post from Brisbane to Perth, which was said to cost $14.80.. Anyway to be sure i asked the seller if i could pay half now and the other half when the item came to my house, he said that was no problem.

On Monday i deposited the amount and sms'd him to let him know. I received confirmation that he dropped it of at the post office around 3pm therefore roughly 5pm over there. After that i asked for a tracking number just so i knew where my item was and roughly when it would arrive at my house so i don’t miss it. He replied that he will send me the tracking number once he got home, however i got no reply.

I asked him the next day again but did not get any reply, after i asked him again exactly what’s going on, he told me he never got a tracking number and all he has is the receipt. So i thought that’s fair enough maybe he just didn’t get the tracking number of the post office.

On Thursday the item still hadn’t arrived so i asked him if he could photo copy me the receipt or even just to sms me the receipt number. However after that i have not heard from him and he has not replied to any of my text's . I’ve sms'd him a few times asking what’s going on and even rung his mobile but no answer.

So my question is, should i be concerned? Or does express post usually take this long from Brisbane.

Thanks guys, Ni

By next tuesday I would be a bit concerned, it generally only takes around 2-3 business days for express post. Just keep hasseling him for a tracking number, the post office should have given it to him when he sent it off.

if he agreed straight out to taking half the money and posting i'd be worried. theres no way in hell i'd post something interstate until 100% of the money had cleared.

but yer give it a few days before taking action

      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

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      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.
