Finally the sound deadner is all out and is looking a lot neater!

The bulk was easy to get out with the dry ice but the little bits were a pain in the ass

Cheers guys

Picked it up for not alot when you take into account what i sold off of it as it was very neat!

if / when i come to selling it ill most probably strip. Havent spent a whole heap, as most things ive done myself and also got second hand on here.

More of a budget build then anything else

Will upload a bunch more pics in the coming weeks and specs as it will be up and about for mallanats in adelaide, in a months time! heres to giving some V8s a suprise!

Just looked back over the thread, I had in my head this engine had upgraded internals but looking back over I can't see any evidence of that - is this a fully stock block?

STOCK STOCK block. Stock head just new head gasket and studs.

Have another engine im slowly buying parts for to forge eventually. Just seeing how long it will last before it goes *pop*

Thanks guys will post results as soon as i get them

If you have a decent tuner you will find it will be a long time before it goes pop! I still have the stock headgasket too remember lol

hahah i have taken inspiration from your set up and efforts! defiantly subscribed to your build.

hoping it lasts 12 or so months and give me time to get parts for a build together... plus i keep chopping and changing what i want to do / go about it

Lol now i might have to do the same with your car, time to get dry ice and some weight reduction happening lol

hahah

The dry ice works really well. i got around 10 kilo of it but could have used more. defiantly the more you can afford the easier the job becomes!

Trying to find a carbon boot and looking at lexan rear 1/4 windows and rear window.

    • 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  
    • 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.
