really Need HELP ... if u can help.. i just got my car bak from the auto elec to replace my alternator and i just got it bak and went to take it home only to find its running like a DOG box, as soon as i hit 3000rpm or when turbo kicks in it starts to coff and splatter and sometimes just stop altogether , it sounds a lil like a fuel issue but i have no IDEA wat it is .

Its got no balls and sounds like it struggling to get anywhere past 3000rpm . the idle sounds a lil out too i really dont know what happend , it was only an Alternator after all nothign special ..

What do i ask the Auto elec to do ? or wtf is WRONG wif it ?

Do i need a Dyno tune again or somthing ?

I wouldnt think u would need to tune your car again after a alternator change .

I am really pissed off at the moment and need some help on wat it could possibly be or how i would go about fixin it ?

Any1 had a problem like this PLEASE HELP !!!!

If I had customers like you I think I would like to change trades aswell.

Getting angry doesn't fix the situation at all, And im sure it was just a honest mistake. I once put a return oil line off a vacuum pump on to an altenator and did not realise it had the slightest crack, and it sprayed oil everywhere. But we were all adults about the situation and it got sorted out.

But if your going to act like a child well, the trader will eventually tell you to piss off and take it to a mechanic because its out of his field - whether it is or isn't.

Cheers

U tell me how u would feel if u had half ur Plenum Hanging off by just the hose then pay for a BS repair ...

I dont care wat u think if mechanics/Auto electricians cant Check over and do their work properly before handing it to the customer i wouldnt be in that FIELD either.

Be good to see u without a car over the Long weekend because of someone not puttin everything bak together . It coulda been anything.

All this guy is saying, is that they should check the car before giving the keys back. I would be pissed to.

Anything could have happened while driving back home and if it did, i doubt that the mechanics would have owned up to it. If they are honest they might but chances are they would say "it was like that when you brought it here"

yer well its all good :)

Thanks for your comments guys . Sumo (auto elec :thumbsup: ) and i have spoken and we have come to an agreement that it was an unfourtunate incident that lead to my car being 'Incomplete'.

Anyway, yer im not to happy but its all good i have ppl i can turn to for ideas and theorys of wat i can do to diagnose the problem.

Car is running great now :rofl: the dash lights and everything has gone more bright and im sure the spark to the coils is much more fluid. . All i need now is my turbo upgrade :) i dont wanna have to pull out the credit card :)

Happy easter Every1 !

    • 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.
