Oil has had Engine flush through it. Dropped the oil and put Diesel grade oil through for a different type of clean (Basically 15w40 oil with Detergents in it). If this comes out good then the next oil will be Royal Purple.

:)

Buying some Iridium plugs today. Next plans will hopefully be some new bushes,new air filter and maybe a brand new Bosch Z32 AFM because im sick of 17 yr old AFMs acting like 17 YR old AFMs.

Slowly getting there. Have Decided (mostly) that i will be putting the Impul rims back on and striving towards restoring this car to its Original Visual Quality

As ive decided this just isn't a car that should be tampered with too much, seeing as its somewhat rare and has its own style from factory.

Didn't end up getting Iridiums(Thought that was what we were getting but mate picked these up).

201111261717111200x9001323882562.png

Up on ramps ready to Take gearbox out for new clutch installation.

During which i found out that the car also has Impul Swaybars :)

Pulled out Injectors. Bit of gunk here and there.

201112111334341200x9001323883025.png

Had spare injectors from my previous RB25DET (f**ked Piston 6) in my previous Blue Skyline.

so sent them in for Reconditioning and Flow test(2 were a bit low initially but all tip top now :) ).

So just had to swap injectors there and then. Too easy :)

Gearbox oil was low but still decent oil. has a cocktail of whatever it had,Some Penrite 75 and a fair bit of DX3.

Falls under the category of "Thats what it gets" for now. Plan to buy some Smurfs Blood soon.

Havent started car yet as we finished after midnight but will see how it goes soon.

Next up is New 255s for the Impul Rears and Possibly some Diff oil.

So yeah car was having dramas with hitting boost. Changed all 3 ECU/Fuel pump Relays and that fixed it a lot. Now it just needs a proper tune.

Tune is Scheduled for Saturday 14th and i cant wait!

First Port of Call :D

Have been inspired to possibly try and source a roof spoiler further down the track.

I also legally get to drive around with one number plate on the rear for at least 2 weeks as i put in an order for my plates to be reprinted. :D

Happy New Year,Peace.

Installed New HKS pod filter using a metal adapter bought from Autobarn specifically labelled to be for R33 2.5L.

But no, Didnt fit as planned lol. Got it on on an angle with only 2 bolts then used some washers with the other bolts to hold the other 2 sides down.

Pretty sure a headlight restoration is on the cards hopefully very soon :)

Did a bit of a height check. Not very happy as previously stated with my ride height for legal purposes but oh well for now i guess.

201201071712531200x9001325950890.png

So yeah some Fuel pump issues arose where fuel would just cut out at random moments a few times each trip

and there was also a problem where the revs would drop below now idle level,recover and then stall..

Installed my spare fuel pump from my first 4 door today which seems to have fixed the intermittent fuel problem but the stalling has happened once or twice on a trip but definitely running better and sounding better :)

Tune is prospected for next Saturday and i cant wait as im driving around on no boost :(

1 positive is that i can do much lower speeds in higher gears than in my previous stock skylines so its not so bad just cruisin around off boost. 30 in second at 2100rpm sounds beautiful :P

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win?

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      By f00stx · Posted

      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
