FINALLY, i got my first speeding ticket in my 3 yrs driving history last night.

And it was SO stupid...

driving from city down south, at anzac highway i met 2 young kids car. Once i turn into south road, one of them who driving a nissan NX keep parallel to my car, i igore him but he keep staying in that position for "mins". Until we get close to used tyre mart, he finally give up and slow down. i drop into 4 gear and pull away from him as he is so annoying.

But at the time i put my eye on the road again from the rear mirror i reach a traffic light, apply the brake slightly but not enough... "FLASH"! there u go $17x...

other than money, i have been punished by GF not allow to turn on my boost controller for 2 weeks.. :chairshot

you never know Chapman - a fair few of those permanent cameras fail - I got done about 4 months ago at Golden Grove on the way to marshal at the Coopers Rally, saw the flash, but never received the fine (I hope it's not still on the way). :/

nar there's no need for that is there maxx.

She is heading home soon.. :)

wow.. My last speeding ticket was when I was 20.. 70km/h in a 60 zone.

Thats a damn record. 5 years.

That was in my little old slugger, rattly, had to replace the whole drive line & rear IRS chassis VS 5ltr 5 speed Commodore because it couldn't handle 150rwkw of brute.. umm slugginess. lol.

I got a couple of 70km/h in 60zones in that. The gearing was long and made it easy to creep over the speed limit after accelerating away from a set of lights.

I have had a lot of close calls with mr policemens on motor bikes though.

They always just happen to have pulled some one else over, one let me go and simply shook his head at me. (110 in 100 zone Southern Expressway)

How fast were you going Maxx?

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win?

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      By f00stx · Posted

      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
