Small update.... ITS RUNNING. Fired first go! Smells like burnt dust apparently .

A 9174 would just make the EGP pressure issue worse and in my mind it seems like a bit of a GT RS shit going on. Not that it's horrendously bad (It wouldn't be no twin buttplug pressures), That's NOT

Why did you build a 2.8 and use an n1 pump haha, was lucky you made it that long without letting go!

I bought the car off a mate like that. That engine was built in 2005. It was always the one thing that I was worried about.

And I kept telling ya I had a tomei one under the bed with your name on it whenever you wanted it.

On a serious note, could the damage to the box have been done previously (pre this engine rebuild) when possibly the owner gave the car a bit of hiding now and again.

I'm talking possible microscopic stress fractures that may not have been visible during the boxes recent rebuild and with the new sandwich plate and diffs maybe no torsional give, well something gave.

Maybe time to pull that black carbon giant dildo out again that could help with torsional loading ???

Whats the damage diagnosis ?

Marcus, I built this box about 5 years ago when I smashed the OEM box. That was a shock loading through my own fault.

That big dildo is long gone. Stupid POS!

Need to get it out and inspect. If (hoping) the gearset has survived (not liking my chances) ill put new bearings through it and whatever has failed then screw it back together, but from what Terry has said, it's a shock loading more than likely. When I did it, I'm not sure.

Not sure when I'll get to it with Xmas and shit coming up. The plan is ill wash it and drain the E85 out of it and flush with some 98. The car ain't going anywhere so ill just take my time.

      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.
