Tell me if this is wrong thinking Chris...

But isn't an RB26 in a "GTS" a bunch of bogus?

It ceases to be a GTS without the RB25.

Could I perhaps stick a 20B with a air shifted Powerglide and still call it a GTS?

I mean it kinda devalues the good work people have done getting into the 10/11's with an RB25.

Nah i havent but ur right, they must be doing something right, the secret is getting the power to the ground and with a time of 10.8 it seems these people have done it. Many 300+ hp skylines on the road but little have a reasonable time to show as the motor gets the attention and not the part that matters the most.....tyres.

There are many ECR33s out there with the power potential to run 10s (possibly with a little bit more fiddling)... So the RB25 is capable of producing the power necessary to run that time.

So if the RB25 is capable of running a 10, why is it "cheating" to use an RB26? It might be easier, but it's not doing anything the RB25 can't do... It's just doing it more easily and probably without all the fuss of building such a tough RB25.

Also, what about all the ECR33s running RB30 conversions? Are they no longer "GTS-ts" in your mind? What are they? VL Commodores?

I gotta agree with tony on this one,

Scenario..

Two 11second passes in two different R32's one with rb26 and the other with standard rb20 the latter I think deserves more Kudos as it is clearly a greater achievement., And i think thats the point tony was trying to make.

But what do i know i've never driven a car down those 400 meters myself. :P

Whether or not it's a greater achievement is very subjective.

I couldn't give a rats ass whether you used a 1.6L carby or a 5.7L Supercharged LS1 with Nitrous... A 10 second pass is a 10 second pass. Who cares what you used to do it. That's completely upto the car's owner, and a very personal choice... I don't think one deserves greater accolade than the other, as it's still an excellent result.

Hehe I'm surprised by the posts here a bit. My point of the thread was:

a) a RWD skyline is in the 10's that has seemingly come from no-where

B) it uses small bolt on turbos

Why can't a GT-R pull a time like that here? Even the Mines R34 with it's uber gear got a similar time. Has anyone seen this car? Is it totally stripped or running A/C and a big stereo while going down the 1/4?

Just curious as to the setup on this car, pretty good number in an RWD that is probably very streetable.

Hi guys, I think your are missing the point, a Skyline pushed the Supra from N1 RWD, I'm cheering!

PS; If I meet the guy, I'll by him a beer (or 2).

I think you're right... I've completely missed any references to a Supra before your post.

    • 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  
    • 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.
