Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

Morning all.

So...last nights drive was eventfull...
The bad,

1. Zeke's mate was supposed to be coming along in his Civic...he didn't tell us there was 10 other P platers with him as well...
2. My car started to smell like burning oil very badly. This was because the oil filler cap came off, either because I didn't put it on or because I put it on loose, and sprayed oil all over the engine bay.
3. While checking I had enough oil to drive the car safely I picked up a stick I the rear guard.
4. At the end of the run I put my thong on and didn't see the bull ant that was hiding at the end. From then on I had some very painful toes.
5. Car was still smelling of burning oil.
6. Picked up another, larger, stick with my rear bumper.
7. Cleaned up the easter bunny/hare at about 80 km/h. Sorry kids, no easter next year.

The good,
1. No one broke anything.
2. Pete blows awesome flames like Zeke.
3. Awesome drive with no unwanted attention.
4. Happened to meet up with Carl and a few of the EVO guys for a nice chat.
5. 1 less rabbit/hare in Queensland.

As long as all the cars stay shiny side up they are good night's despite all the random happenings! The random stuff is one of the main parts that makes it fun and interesting.

We were all fine, just heard from Carl that one of the EVO's kissed a guard rail with the rear quarter on the way down. Car was mostly alright other than a wrecked panel.

    • 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.
