Dude, take a real close look at the grill, it looks a bit strange to me, not like a standard GTR one. I went and had a look at it, it has large sections in the middle and at he side in front of the mesh that just don't quite look rite to me. The workmanship however seemed OK, just a matter of taste I guess.

Edit, by the way the kit that I looked at was fitted, and seemed like a pretty good fit, no noticable problems

i agree with steve on the grill, its not that good looking, has got a bit bit of fibreglass that the "S" badge sits on, just doesn't look right.

but as he said all the bumpers and skirts i have seen from there look pretty sweet, and seem to fit real well.

Cam.

i can't and i've seen a fair few of his peices.

show cars he seems to do a great job on, daily drivers seems any old piece will do.

Okay let me see i have dealt with both places.

I have previously bought a GTR front bar from Autoworx as well as 4ooR skirts and GTR rear pods.

Now the front bar didnt fit, not cos of workmanship but because the series 2 front end dont like series 1 gtr bars. lol

dang shape is totally different.

Paul had no issues with refunding the money to me because it didnt fit. he even offered the series 1 nismo bar they have as well to see if that would fit, while i still had the GTR one. Now many places are not that trusting, but he was fine with it. Neither fitted so yeah he refunded the cashiola and i was on my way. kept the skirts and the pods though, hehe

Now off to Fibrevision to get me a front bar. I ended up with a GTR bar from there but it is that trust one, with a bit of a twist that i wanted. all was done fine, they ripped the top off and customed it to fit a series II. all good no dramas, except it is slightly crooked where they have grafted on a grille. hard to tell at 140KPH but its still there.

Then i thought hell these guys are the experts let me give them the skirts and the rear pods and they can fit it all up etc.

Well they fitted the skirts crap with sikaflex in thick chunks and then in thin lines etc, nothing consitent and it is black on a white car so it looks like it is not attached to the car. so i gotta go and touch up the black sikaflex with white paint now. and the rear pods are also fitted crap. no sikaflex at all, with gaps and stuff cos it is not bonded to the car.

So yeah if you guys ever see me in the next month and the stuff is not fixed you can have a look. I think it could be more to do with the fact that this was done on a friday. (afternoon piss up as usual)

I havent done this but let me attach a pic of the front bar.

Okay here is what they look like, very similar but look at the black crap.

it might be small, but when you are dealing with a line you do want some sorta perfection right. and adam i agree i have heard only good things about bruce. but i feel that if you arent chucking around $$$$ for a major project then it gets stepped aside fairly quickly.

:P

Did you guys ever see CPR? That car has misaligned panels and big dodgy gaps everywhere...and this was supposedly a bit of "master" work from Fibercrap. I have never seen a car from there that looked schmick.

The S14 at PAS was not too bad though, mind you, I did not get a chance to have a real close look at it.

    • 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.
