Ah yes, I can help! It's all easy just tedious. Don't forget to bring some masketing tape. My headlights won't be installed as yet, trying to figure out the HID stuff...

Bigs, how long do you think to complete the install (no issues of course)?

I should really check my wiring too, based on your post in the lights thread, would hate to get the old lights out (in the dark, cold and far from home) only to then realise I have to do it all up and start again later...

So, depending on how bold I feel after checking the wiring, I'm bringing:

- Lights (duh)

- Socket set (incl 10mm + extension)

- Screwdrivers/misc tools

- Drop sheet/rubber matting

- Lighting

- Masking tape

I'm out for tonight ladies and gents. however I'm free next weekend and will be itching to go for a drive somewhere on saturday. So you guys can discuss that tonight and let me know =D if not hopefully by the end of this month I'll have done something else to my car to make up for the fact that I no longer have an exhaust =(

Josh/Marie,

This is what you missed:

1) Return of the Interfooler - Better than ever, paint job all done.

2) Visit by our cousin Zeds, led by Majestik in his matte black vinyl wraped 370z with Amuse body kit

3) The Stanceworks guys came in later - First time I've every seen a Mitsubishi Triton truck in the garage cafe with camber - Took up so much space Andrew couldn't get working on his lights.

4) Decoding of what options your Vs came with - I brought the document from Nissan FAST but it was in Japanese so Opal had a good time translating stuff. 8IgSKy apparently had heated seats when it was manufactured but somewhere along the line, someone removed them. (I'll post this up soon)

5) Guest appearance by Brian (G35me) in his H8TAX R35 GTR

6) As usual, we had our Princes Highway cruise back. Thanks for joining us 8IgSKy and Interfooler, even though home was the opposite direction. And Josh, I got Opal at the lights this time for you....[she is probably going to dispute this or claim that she was distracted etc....] :P

Until the next meet, keep safe guys.

(ps. I'll set up an EOI thread on a cruise next weekend (weather permitting))

YAY! It's done, headlights installed! Damn unplugging the headlights were a bitch! Dreadnought it took me 4 hours this time, took a while to unplugged the harness from the old headlights. Annoying with the tight space and undoing the bolts of the front bar underneath the headlights, holding the wheel guard plastic back.

How y'all doing with the install?

      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.
