we are hoping for about 250-280 less than stock Noel (1450-1500)

its getting hard to find weight now though...

Might have to start looking at driver weight savings?

I hear the oxygen diet is effective :P

Lovin' reading about the build btw

Edited by iamhe77

this is a standard box with upgraded parts, the DSG uses a synchromesh type engagement which is retained here in the dodson setup as far as I am aware. a dogbox is a completely different when compared to a DSG

I continue to be totally amazed at your commitment to create something that really is in a World of its own.

The high level of engineering expertise being applied to your car, is a pleasure to watch.

I am looking forward to the my first track day where I can watch your car ROARRRRR by!

The quality of work and results achieved by Mercury Motorsport on your car, is the primary reason I have been inspired to start modifying my car.

Thanks,

Kym

When i first got my r35, i didn't want to have any mods on it.

But after reading your first build post on your r35, i've changed my mind and decided to give it a try.

Really excited to see the end result for this one.

thanks guys, the mercury crew is certainly getting right into it.

Kymbo, would be good to catch up again at the track.

Eric, glad to see you are enjoying modding the car.

here is one of the snaps from the baseline geometry of the R35

next will some further runs with the top racing kit and then design of the aero pieces and further test runs

Now thats a NSFW picture right there, so shinny...

I will be at the next QR/Lakeside event your running at to ogle this machine...

I just want to sit on a camp chair in front of it for 5 minutes and take in the shape and curves, then maybe touch it a little... :cheers:

When you see someone breaking out CFD plots in build, you KNOW they're nuts ;)

Love the development & the speed at which this project is churning forward.

I hope your going to do a drive day for your fellow staff mates at Q-Scan, would be awesome watching their faces as you take em for a lap :P

    • 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
