ive been playin with turbos and i tried a larger front cover and wheel on a standard rear sized turbo. down low pulled ok but the top end lacked punch. the small exhaust is like a cork up its arsend.thats my thought anyway.

What was your 60ft / 330ft and 660ft times / also the mph of the 660ft and terminal mph and time. This can tell you where things are coming un stuck.

why turn neons on while at the drags looks silly and potentially dangerous also robs u of power

All after me

Your so rice it's unbelievable, Your so rice it's unbelievable.....

And whats with Soarers, I thought just West Perth was packed full of them it appears their everywhere:eek:

Wow! It seems there is quite some passion about the "Lit-up" Soarer! Well I have to admit to you that - that particular Soarer belongs to me. I respect that everyones tastes are different so some (eg: Skyzerr33, jmp, gradenko and puckish) may think it's rice, butt ugly and/or the person driving it is a tool - and that's all cool - you're entitled to your opinion! I'm not offended...! The car managed to pick up the "Mr TRD" Trophey at the 2002 PAS Western Salon and a 14.2 on the drag night so it can't be all that bad - can it !?

The car is a bit of a project for a number of Perth based initiatives. For one I am also the President of the Soarer Club for Western Australia so that was in part why there was a stack of Soarers down there on Wednesday. And hey, don't knock the Soarers! both the V8's and Twin Turbo's did pretty well on the night! I certainly can appreciate the skylines and if I had a second choice a Skyline would be it.

Secondly the car is a promotional vehicle for my business www.importscene.com.au. Specialising in auto accessories for the import market. And yes I've seen previous threads regarding the "rice" component. But again I'm fine with that. You either love it or you hate that stuff, personally I love it and a lot of my customers happen to be standard Aussi blokes many of whom own skylines!!

So at the end of the day this car is a bit of a promo vehicle for me and it needs to be seen. I also happen to love the neon look (each to their own) and if that makes me a tool in the eyes of some of you well so be it ! I'll still be down at the drags (trying) to kick some whoop ass....! Next time you see me at the plex come over and have a yack I'll be only to happy to listen to you dis me off in person! I think you'll find I don't take too many things that seriously :(

By the way "EXIT" drop by the shop sometime in wangara and I'll give you a generous discount for having such good taste!...

Cheers guys - enjoy the scene... :D

The only soarer I didn't like was the white one with the *huge* wing, long sticker and plate style rims.

It's just not my taste.

However, that blue/green one with neons didn't look bad but I just don't believe that neons belong on the track.

Also - Good luck with the shop lextc, nice to see a import style shop in Perth.

If neons and rice is the best way for you to express the love for your car, then I'm glad you stuck with your first choice.

personally I love it [rice] and a lot of my customers happen to be standard Aussi blokes many of whom own skylines!!  

And thats the shame of it all.

    • 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.
