This was a response to a couple of questions one of the club members sent me a while back :-) First, the Martini. Be warned, if you are not a big drinker a Martini is a BAD starting place for real c

the 'real' stuff is highly overrated. It contains VERY low doses of THC, get more effect from punching a cone and having a few beers. The mystique surrounding absinth has less to do with the wormwood (the THC ingredient) and EVERYTHING to do with the fact that when prepared the traditional way (sugar cube, fire, all that jazz)

Back in ye olde Paris, the sugar wasn't sugar but laudanum, a opium derrivative (about 10% opium, or roughly 2% morphine solution).

Opiates + alcohol + mild dose of THC = GOOD times.

Interesting idea. Misses some key styles but a solid representation and we'll laid out with some solid information.

In other news one of my regulars came in for lunch today. Guy is a royal pain in the ass and when dining with large groups we let him bring in a few bottles of really high end wine to share with the table. This means no booze sales which means smaller bill which means less tips. And you have to work HARD with this guy, he is almost impossible to please and everything needs to be flawless and done at the highest standards expected from a hat rated restaurant.

So I bust a gut all day looking after him and his family, handling wines worth more a bottle than I make in a month. End of the meal and I'm put up some dessert glasses for him as he has some port he wants to share with his guests. I get them all set and he asks for one more, I scratch my head but whatever.

So out comes the bottle of Port. It's in a wooden case, velvet lined. Little half bottle inside. He pours a portion for all his guests and a portion in the extra glass, stuff has the consistency and colour of engine oil and the smell is so strong I can smell it from the next table. He then explains what it is. I shit you not it was a 1908 para liqueur. 105 year old port. This stuff must be worth more than my car. His guests all begin the process of savouring the drink and the guy waves me over. I ask what I can do for him and he says, "I wanted to say thank you for looking after us so well today. This is for you." and he hands me the extra glass.

105 year old port. 105 years. This stuff is almost as old as Australia as a country.

All I can say is wow. WOW. I've had the pleasure of drinking some truly exceptional drinks over the years and this has to be the single finest thing I have ever tasted and may ever taste. Thick, intense, Smooth, lingering taste that opens up to reveal layer upon layer upon layer of flavours. This is why I am so passionate about alcohol not as a way to get f**ked up but to enjoy, savour and share. It's a passion for me and God damn if I'm not the luckiest son of a bitch that others feel the same way and want to share with me as well.

Makes it all worth while hey Boz. That really touched me!

Have had a similar experience but they just bought me a $40 nip of whiskey as he was a whiskey drinker too and we had spent quite a while talking about it. =)

(This was back when a normal drink was about $3.50)

      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.
