hey guys,

i know its a long shot looking for second hand tyres in 18s but i figured id try anywayz

here's the deal, im shopping around for Jap 17" rims, more drift style so my 18s will be for sale in abt 1-2 months time... however, i need tyres as the insides are worn and i drove over a nail on the left side. i dont wanna have to buy new ones if im gonna use them for like 2 months.. new tyres wont get me my money back when i sell them with the rims in future...

so, if any of u have suitable tyres for an 18x8 rim... please let me know. I'm running 235x40x18s on the rear fyi

thanks SAU i know you'll pull thru :)

i've found that tyre guys dont wanna even touch 18s in 2nd hand. I phoned around heaps of places when i was after some 265x35x18 and most of them laughed at me. Im after some 245x40x18 at the moment for the front if any1 knows of them cheap

Not sure on brand but they were at west state tyres. I saw the price and my jaw dropped as theyd be good for cruising tyres.

that cheap ( i think they were 170 or so actually but still cheap ) , dont expect anything good. they are probably hard as **** but will last a lifetime.

what brand are those Sean? those seem reasonable

btw, i found that Swan Tyres have any size u need in 2nd hand, even 19s

      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

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      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.
