Oh, I'm not actually getting much. The engine is perfectly fine and doesn't need any work at the moment. I'm getting some more cleaning stuff (running low on some things), a Headlight restoration kit, Microfibre towels!, some Mesh for the front skirt (I've been told it wont pass pits without it?), some valve caps for my tires (its missing them) and a lug nut...because im missing one and it annoys me. The plan tomorrow is to shell the interior (as best as I can) and clean it out.

The car has been sitting in a commercial garage in welshpool for 6 months collecting dust both inside and out, so before I can do any real work ,I need to clean it.

I haven't got a time frame in mind. I'm in no rush because I have a daily (2014 Lancer ES) and my Motorbike ( <3 ) so the skyline is purely a hobby... but, the sooner the better, I guess. I don't think it'll take too much, but it's a first for me. I have a friend coming around possibly on thursday arvo to take a look at my cluster, because my Tachometer, fuel gage and boost gage don't work. So, if every thing goes smoothly it should be ready for the pits next week, maybe.

Thinking about making a thread to document the work.

Selling for a 2 door? ;)

SNAP!.

4 doors are where it's at man ;)

I know I need to take it over the pits, but there are obvious things that *need* to be done first. Once the obvious things are fixed, i'll take it over the pits and see what surprises me.

While you're on Z00key, Wanna tag along in the morning? (I'm leaving early, around 9ish)

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • 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
