Oh yeah... Broken bracket - rear right lower arm - at the subframe! Without hitting anything. Hahahahahhaha

Btw. That tow - nice chap. Cost me $120 from TAFE to Rydalmere. His number is 0432 550 077 his name is Micheal. If ever need a tow.

Beware, I VOW to have Godzilla back for the next Texi run. Sitting on the sidelines is just too hard.

And for anyone thinking, oh my car isn't good enough. Well my "TEST" pass runs on Confusion, Looper 88 and Double Slalom were made in poor little Rupret my Daily FWD Mazda 3. Only aftermarket parts on him are a set of rims.

No excuse not to come out and have a go for fun!

Woot!! One more to make things more interesting! The more the merrier! Heheheh [emoji12]

Btw. Thanks for pointing out the rear arm to me. [emoji4][emoji4] much appreciated.

Thanks to all who organized, helped out etc. I had a great day, car hated it kept fouling the spark plugs (Bloody Rotor's) HAHAAA

very out of touch with RWD, manual and skids!!! was still very fun, bit disappointed I didn't wreck a pair of tyres, every time I went to grab second it would either bog down or hit the boost to hard and spin me there was no inbetween :( a different diff ratio would probably help but no point as Texi was 1 off just for a bit of fun :)

Unfortunately the RX7 won't come back to Texi but if I can prevent the Stagea from blowing a P/S pump I'll definitely bring that back!!!

didn't get many photo's, still suck at getting a decent action photo HAHA........ its about time I do some proper research on the capabilities of my DSLR

    • 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.
