SMSP has a 95dB limit for track days, however it appears they don't really enforce it, especially when they use the main straight for Roll Racing and those cars are anything but quiet.

Also screamer pipes are such a distraction on track days, you're too busy enjoying the noise to actually be focusing on driving fast lol.

Depends where the microphone is for the noise meter and I don’t think drag racing has the noise restrictions 

Apparently it's at the control tower, yeah I know Roll Racing doesn't have it however the irony is they use the same main straight.

My understanding, is SMSP doesn't have an actual noise limit from the Gumbyment. Other tracks do. Hence they opt in / out of who gets noise restrictions on which days.

That is my understanding from like 15 years ago when I was there.

That's so dumb.

It's the age of case of "Even though we can, maybe we shouldn't do it all the time" so they don't annoy everyone

While there's "not a lot" close to EC, that sound does travel.

 

Roll Racing may align with Top Fuel on some nights, so Top Fuel will be way louder, may as well let it be loud at RR.

When WTAC gets in, it's a HUGE event, better open it up a little (Being on the start finish line, it's nicer if cars keep below the 95dba limit).

 

95DBA is pretty darn loud. Especially since it's measured at race tracks at 30m from the edge of the track normally!

So think about how loud a car is when it gets book at over 90dba on the road at 1.5m, and then imagine how much louder it is to get to 95DBA at over 15times the distance...

    • 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.
