Ross can eat a dick. The price of those kits is Bullshit. I got my gear from some local guys who were able to provide the trigger, hall sensor and mounting kit for less than 400 bucks.

Yes they are expensive. The principle is simple enough Motec and other companies have the sensors, it's just a p in the a to get a trigger wheel to balance and work properly.

Its pretty damn easy. Have even seen slots cut into the harmonic balancer used to trigger.

Which is why I said the principle is simple enough, but balance only needs to be out a bit for the system to stuff up the signal and cause issues. Ross did plenty of R&D to arrive at a good system, but I agree it is expensive.

Its a wheel fixed to your crank. There is literally nothing difficult about it. I am more impressed with Ross's marketing department than their engineering department on this one.

Other than an uneven cut out wheel on a 6 cylinder that are known for engine destroying harmonics.

Really? Lol. There would be hundreds of places capable of making a wheel with evenly spaced gaps in it. This is actually just getting silly now. Any way thanks for reminding me why I stopped posting here. Good night whores!

I thought you stopped posting, as your keyboard was clearly bigger than everyone else's. :) Balance is critical. If it was so simple, why didn't you make one up yourself???

PS: I am actually fully trade qualified (Ask Ants) and build RB engines myself in what little spare time I have outside law. My latest build is 390AWKW SAU member's engine. Have you even touched or used the Ross trigger system, or just posting that they suck for the sole purpose of trying to contradict me? :)

Notice I put smiley faces, therefore it's a friendly post. :)

I didn't make one my self because a monkey with a cnc machine can make a prefect trigger disc in minutes. I don't give a f**k if you are qualified in every trade ever and made a 9000kw rb in your kitchen, you are wrong. There is nothing difficult about a crank trigger no matter which way you slice it, any machine shop in the country can produce the required disc. I have touched a Ross kit. Then used it to think of something else that does the same job for 1/4 of the price. At no point did I say the Ross kit is shit. It isn't, their price however is completely unjustifiable for the simplicity of the gear they supply.

I got my information on how to get the set up done simply and cheaply by a guy called Alan Heaply who also knows a thing or two about RBs. Probably even trade qualified but I would have to verify that with Ants.

if it works i will take it! thank you :D

really thought i would be over CAS issues since buying a refurbished CAS (all new parts inside apparently) but guess that is a risk you take :(

I'll see if it works this arvo and I'll let you know, shoot me a pm

    • 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.
