So yours was pretty much just a new pulley to up the boost a bit and tuning the stock ecu... then a few supporting mods. You had to do injectors as well yeah?

my pulley is still standard, the computer controls a 'wastegate' type valve that bleeds off boost from factory. injectors standard as well, only supporting mods I did was tyres and coilovers lol

If I wanted more boost from where I am at the moment would need a new pulley, but along with more boost would become more heat, needing intercooler as well, and at that power level need injectors as well! This is why I'm happy with 'only' 370rwkw

Barring shitty forced induction setup, I would expect a bit more power given an extra litre of displacement...

not really, the ford heads meant to flow a lot better I think, thats why they make awesome power from just 5.0l (something along those lines) the design of the LS engines pretty old school in comparison - michael the bloke with supercharged XR8 would know more about the differences

You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

The problem with Leigh's car is that it's too perfectly in it's power delivery...see above. It still feels quick but not as quick as you are going. Your joy needs to come from smashing other cars, getting the tale out or getting to ridiculous speeds quickly.

The G tech picked up greater instantaneous G force in my car, which was a lot slower.

Which is why I say blower for drivability, turbo for fun.

      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

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      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.
