Got my copy of the dvd today

Excellent filming skills terry thanks for the dvd

Was layed out well and great to watch

Had a awesome day pity my tyres didn't last very Long but next time round I'm going to bring 3 pairs and turn down the power as it was a handful and just chewed thru the tyres

When is the next texi being held ?

Details for the next Texi will be announced closer to the date - we've got a few other things lined up for Club Members in the mean time.

If you're not a paid-up Club Member, why not? There are quite a few events that we put on which are exclusive to Members, and the only way you'll hear about them before they're on is if you're part of SAU-NSW.

ahh good old z, that was fun to hoon in.

Was there ever a "go to whoa" comp at texi? Wouldn't be hard just to set it up between changing courses. Could be fun to test the skills vs power ;)

I wasn't able to be at this one, but I have been thinking that a good addition might be a little more instruction and technique. Yes skids are fun, but I think there is also a space for learning good habits too. I think because the exec tend to be experienced competitors they design for challenge but not always for beginners.

A potential idea would be to reserve the first 1/3 of the day for some basic skidpan skills, people who aren't interested in that could arrive at say 11 and miss it all. Suggested exercises like go to whoa (launching and braking), basic 180o turn around a cone (handbrake/understeer control/flick oversteer) and maybe a simple track like multiple loop below (smooth driving, multiple 180 turns and easy to get right)

In the end, a texi is not really a doughnut competition is it....

      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

      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.
