6boost are monitoring this thread. I didn't buy them direct.

I was certainly monitoring the tune, had my wideband O2 hanging out the side pipe. I kept the boost down as I had no head room left. Plenty left in her with more fuel. I'm half expecting my damaged to be oil surge related to be honest.

Flow tested the factory manifolds against the chinese stainless and they flowed 50% less, 6hrs of porting the OEM and got them within 15% of the stainless.

Interesting info, any idea where the 6boost manifolds stack up?

Hmm bugger...

So what was the end result with the manifolds? in terms of power/response gains-losses.

I didn't get it on the dyno. However:

1bar was made at the same point, but may improve if it was retuned

my 1000cc injectors maxed out at .35bar less boost so the car makes more power no question

No losses anywhere.

Idle is less stable however....

Yeah shithouse ay.

Are you going to make any significant changes to the engine power wise or are you just upgrading the oiling side?

Still keen to see dyno results back to back...but theres no denying seat of the pants feeling, except for placebo effects :)

It will certainly be on the dyno when it's back together. I don't think I need any more power...can't imagine what it will go like on 1.8bar. May fit the bigger plenum I have here while its out.

Is it a MAF based ECU?

thats no good about the engine! from past experiance no3 or 4 spinning and the rest of the bearings ok tells me oil debis. as they are the first to get oil. and the first to get any contaminants aswell. where as if its no 1 or 6 then id look at oil starvation as a posible cause as they are the last to get oil.

unless a grub screw fell out or something..

    • 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
