And I was only saying on Friday I wanted a wiring diagram for the window switches, as I want to see how they do it from the factory before I get a double throw switch and 2 relays per window and make my own old school circuit to run them!

easy to use 2 switches & 1 relay.
12v+ to each side opposing & same with negative with centre to window motors
Enjoy my paint wiring diagram

Just send it, use a PDM @MBS206 wire it to a canbus keypad and then have soft start etc.

People will froth 

Buy a Nexus and wire everything and do heaps of other stuff.
Enough outputs for almost any engine setup

I was thinking of just having two switches and no relay. Need to measure peak current on a stalled motor window.

 

From what i can picture in your setup, i cant see how youre using the relay to remove high current from the switch, your switch has to be in the same side of the circuit as the motor.

 

 

Nexxus, ha ha ha ha ha, man, Id love one, but i dont have that coin. Id pay for the roll cage before a Nexxus.

That being said, part of a project I have at work involves a programmable IO module. Its just slightly lower in the order than another project right now. Once done Ill be programming it for my own exact purpose, including a CAN keypad for a lot lower cost than I can purchase a Nexxus for.

Do love the Haltech gear though, want Nexxus, Keypad, and Dash.

I was running a relay so had direct feed from battery without voltage drop can wire 2 relays & low current through switch

Yeah this is wjat i was looking at with dual relay and a switch per window.

Depending on the current, if I can find a good mometary DPDT switch that will take high current, ill use it direct, with the relay just for switching windows off when ignition power is off. From what ive seen, lots of manufactufers do it, hence the lots of arcing amd carbon burn in switches over time.

Very potato photo, just took it as I was leaving as my mate asked where I was heading in the R33.

Left about 8am and took a very extended drive to Meat Emporium to pick up wagyu lololol.

Night before pulled out the laptop and set 1bar of boost, 17 degrees of timing mid range and 19 up top. Safe as shit and closed loop O2 to take care of the rest.

Gave it many jabs to 8k rpm (limiter is 8500rpm). Must say, it's very linear in terms of power, where as before with smaller cams and the OEM intake manifold/plenum you could feel a big surge of torque coming on. 

Probably put it on the dyno soon, when I have time. Alex from Birrong has been asking me when I'm bringing it in, I'm sure he's keen too (as the choice of parts isn't what he's used to putting together).

Some billet brace goodness 😂

This is the only billet brace I can afford.

Needed a better battery clamp solution as the flimsy clamp from Supercheap wasn't holding the battery in place, especially after cutting off one side of the battery guide on the tray to fit a larger battery.

Bit more timing down low once tuned and youll get the surge back :P

 

years ayearsreduced timing on my 25/30 when it was first put in, as it wasnt yet tuned, may have set it slightly low at only 15 degrees... high mount got hot while i moved the car from one house to another on a 20 minute freeway drive...

and thats how my bonnet lining caught fire...

Yeah mine shouldn't ignite, manifold is coated, have a turbo beanie and also the dump is wrapped.

Has survived 2x track days like this without catching on fire. Just binned a motor instead when the cam snapped due to oil starvation.

Should be putting it on the dyno soon, just finding time during the week to tune it has been difficult. Work being aids 😭

Might see if I can convince Birrong to open up on a Saturday 🥲

Ha ha  sorry i was meaning cruising with low ignition timing (low load area).

With all the coating etc should be okay

haha all good, I have like 30~45 degrees of timing on cruise/vac

OEM+ achieved, have a bunch of clips and shit plus the cowl to replace soon (all in boxes).

Hopefully someone with a M3 LCI, white, DCT, sunroof, sub 50k kms, near stock wants to straight swap me for the R33 😂

Drive it first, then make a decision.

Historically, If he drives it  there's a 50/50 chance it will break something 

Which still makes the Skyline more reliable than a BMW

Yes, yes, and more reliable than a 20 year old Holden as well

Your car is to pretty to swap for a run of the mill BMW that could be mistaken for a Kia from side on

Wind the boost down and enjoy for the next 20 years

I think that's called being Australian.

I've passed the citizenship test then, no deport to Chyna.

    • 2001 BE5D Subaru Legacy B4 RSK (3rd gen) EJ208 (pink injector) Twin Turbo 280PS 5-speed manual Full time 4WD "RSK" grade which means all of the above LQC option which means stock rear spoiler  I got it primarily to export to someone outside Japan who was interested. These BE5 Legacy B4 RSKs are going through a bit of a resurgence right know in Japan as they are one of the few cars from the "turbo, manual, RWD/4WD, 280hp gentleman's agreement era" cars that don't require stupid money to purchase. Which for some people might be a good opportunity to get as a base for restoration. If I can't find anyone to purchase it I will certainly be doing that myself over the long term. Why? Because it's properly fast in stock form, handles well enough for a GT sedan, there's still enough aftermarket and (if you can wait a while) genuine part support to make it a restoration candidate (<-- that will only get worse over time so it's a case of do it now or choose get a BL5 4th Gen). Mechanically it's fine, has only 89,200kms on the odometer. The problem with this car is that the body and exterior trims are weathered from at least the last 10 years being parked outdoors. I'm the 3rd owner, the first owner was the one that had it for 14 years and barely drove it, had a low-speed front impact (which didn't damage anything behind the radiator support) and got it fixed and sold it. The 2nd owner put most of the kms on it and parked it outside for the last 10 years, hence the door rubbers have seen better days but if you overlook those cosmetic details, it presents pretty nicely. There is some minor rust on the LH rear wheel arch which I'll have looked at too at some stage.  Also as you'd expect from a car this age, the clear top coat is gone, leaving a satin finish on the roof.  Mechanically it's fine (as you would expect from a car with less than 100K kms) but the steering does feel slightly vague around the centre position at higher speeds. So first on the list is to get the steering rack bushes looked at. There's also the Lock button on the remote which doesn't work, but the Open button does.... it means that the anti-theft system thinks it's always open? It seems like if you open the car and don't start the engine within 3 mins or so the anti-theft kicks in again without any beeps or signals. So if you got to start it after that, it won't. You have to push the open button again. That's how I understand it anyway. Just a small irritation but not a big problem to sort out. There's only one mod, the Wangan SPL muffler. Just a tad louder than stock. It's a really good mod for those who don't want to wake the neighbours but still want to hear a more prominent unequal length header EJ20 sound. Anyway I hope to get all those things done eventually, that is unless someone wanted to import it to their country from Japan (where I live). I'm open for negotiations as I really would like a Skyline... but this will definitely suffice in the meantime 🙂 *Disclaimer: This is how I picked it up from the dealer, minus the stuff on the back seat. I haven't cleaned the engine bay or done a thorough exterior clean, aside from spray painting the wipers. 
    • Wow, even with the Audi logo centre caps. I love OEM wheel mismatches. 
    • Welcome!  Can't go wrong with a Stag.
    • Looks good. Nice height.
    • Hey all, a little help from the Stagea hive mind plz.. I'm days away from buying either a 2002 Stagea 250tRS AR-X Four, premium leather, power seats and all the old switches etc that go with it, or a 2002 Stagea 250tRS VR-X Four AERO, pov pack, cloth seats etc, with coil overs, sports zorst, comes with original zorst and suspension and parts. (I think I've got the models right?) Both are VQ25DET, have 160000kms, both straight no rust both with $2000+ in recent servicing receipts, both ride on aftermarket 18" rims. The Aero has a replaced turbo as well. I like the cool factor of the Aero car but the AR-X has never been modified. Neither have been driven hardly at all in the last 5 years. Any thoughts on which one or does it come down to personal preference? davemoto
