Hi guys,

I'm frustrated by a lack of a proper bb for Cef owners. It is very kind of sau to host this section, but I don't think it is well known and it is also limited in that it can't have its own sub forums for classifieds and the like. Also the content is diluted due to that fact that other 4 door Nissans are discussed here. They will be welcome on the new site, but the focus is on Cefs.

Look out for an update soon with a link.

Michael

everyone wants to be teh uber admin of a forum these days:D

someone did start a dedicated forum for ceffies n laurels and other nissan sedans, something taxi.com... wasn't exactly a raging sucess as it was a small group of 15 people going "swoit car mate" to each other.

As a cef owner, SAU's been the best resource as all the tuning etc as the cef and laurel is 70% a skyline anyways. If there's not enough people aware of the awesome tech and resources available on here, or of the 4 door RB sedan section, then you should spread the word, not splinter off as that'll make things worse.

I'm not after the glory here, I have a very successful website in www.sr20tuning.com already for that. Maybe not so well known on RB based forums but heaps of people know and use it on Silvia related sites.

And yes I agree that this site is a good resource, in particular your self has done a great job in the cef section from what I've seen in my short time here.

Jus want to give these interesting cars the space they deserve.

Thats right theres no point starting a forum without the people that have the know how to answer the questions in the first place.

Sure it would be nice to have a shrine for the ceff but it would be hard to match SAU in the amount of information and knowledge provided as there would never be anywhere near as much traffic . The strength of this forium is that it is a forum is for different types of cars but they all still share the same tuning/performance traits

i think it's a fanstic idea, but, before i say a compliment, i must contradict myself like a real dickwad.

yes that's right i said it...

anyway, the cefiro "community" if you will is a very small group of people as far as australia is concerned, say for example, 15 cefiros australia wide ( i know this isn't true, but just hypothetical situation) if those 15 cefiro drivers are on SAU, wouldn't it be wise to keep them on SAU, rather than segregate them creating many splinter groups?

im all for it, but here you have the RB geeks who know EVERYTHING there is to rb engines, i love it here! plus, i already waste more than enough time of my day checking forums...

haha, but seriously it's a good idea

I'd like this section to be a bit more prominent as well, but so would the stagea boys as well, so we have to have a fair sort of system... if more people call for this section to be more prominent then the other admins might agree to doing something about it.

Ah well, another forum to whore.

Guys fair points I agree. No reason why we can't still be a member of both now is there? A fair chance many questions will be answered by searching here and new thread will not be needed in either forum.

Anyways please come along and join up:

http://www.sr20tuning.com/cefiro

Proper domain name to come.

I'm with that. I think having too many for such a small userbase is folly. Personally, between ns.com, nsilvia.com and sau I get my need of - forum kids, tech info and tech info/good people (respectively).

I'll sign up to support the movement and all that but I like sticking with SAU - there's just no reason to move anywhere else.

Sorry to be another downer, but this section here I would have to say would be the most popular cefiro section I have come across.  The only thing that isnt cefiro or laural is the title.

This is exactly how I see it also - except that you get the occasional 4 door skyline in here too. Don't get me wrong I like Adz posting about his crazy wheels or blown up flywheel :D but I think most 4 door skyline owners hang in the skyline section anyway.

I'd like this section to be a bit more prominent as well, but so would the stagea boys as well, so we have to have a fair sort of system... if more people call for this section to be more prominent then the other admins might agree to doing something about it.

I think the solution to this is to get the cefiro domain owned by PranK pointed to the cefiro section directly. (and I've started to whore)

      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

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      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..
