I have a 25G Stagea that is virtually a S2 R33. The brakes are a PITA> Awhile back the ABS light came on and is still on. Then the hand (foot) brake would not disengage so it was disconnected. Car went OK and stopped OK. Now there is a constant buzzing coming from the ABS unit on the firewall. It even buzzes when you switch off and take the key out.

Has anyone got any clues?

Also have read that Drifters disconnect the ABS. Can this be done by just pulling the fuses in the engine compartment? And what effect will it have when driving normally?. I want to get it fixed properly but will have to drive from Tamborine to the Coast. Is that dangerous?

Hope you can help.

My opinion would be not to drive it til you can get it looked at. If you apply the brakes in an emergency situation, they may not work effectively or may fail completely. Your foot brake would not be the cause for any of the problems you are having, as it works via a cable that runs to the drum inside the rear discs and activates a pair of brake shoes. Either the ABS module is at fault or there could be problems with wheel speed signal to the module.

      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.
