it looks like i will miss the upcoming DECA day, which I was really looking forward to :kick:

everytime i think i have my car ready to do an event, some problem comes up and i miss out... this time my car was already to go... and now i have a broken arm

will be catching the train to work... again

You were given codeine for a fracture?

Damn.... I want your doctor!

and i thought it was just standard practice that they hand out double demerits on all long weekends/holiday periods now....

can anyone confirm/deny?

How'd you break it basketball nick, getting a little physical on the court were you. Hope you have a speedy recovery. Sucks about DECA though, your missing out on making more photos like the one in your avatar! There's always next year though.

I havent seen anything in the papers saying that there was double demerit points, not to say that there isnt. Only one way to find out...

he he nah i wasn't getting rough... just on fastbreak, going for a layup and got hammered... the other guy landed on me, i landed on my arm... last time this happened i had to get 6 stitches in my chin... non contact sport my ass!

there is still a chance i will make it to DECA... even if i have to change gears with my right hand!

yeah it was a cheap one and i let him know... he apologised though so was all good

at DECA will be okay just put it in 2nd, pump the clutch and away you go (i don't think i used 3rd at all last time)... its just the drive up there that will be a pain in the ass... or elbow in this case

Damn, owners with silver 33's who play ball must be jynxed lol

4 weeks ago i tore all my ligaments in my left foot, driving through the key, some arse stuck his foot out,

so now im driving mums car :cheers:, i feel for u mate, least u only have 3 weeks to wait!

yeah i have done both ankles before (never my foot tho)... basketball is killer on the ankles but im sure i dont have to tell you! i just hate getting injured cos someone isn't good enough to play you straight up and has to use a cheap shot to stop you...

hope the foot heals quickly

ps. anyone who drives a silver r33 and is playing bball............. be careful!

basketball is a killer for skyline drivers!

about 6 weeks ago, i tore a ligament in my ankle playing basketball :cheers:

its better than a break because you don't need plaster, but a bad tear is also worse because even now 6 weeks later there is still pain and a small amount of swelling. when a break heals, its good as new

you sound shocked: codeine is available over the counter...

ever bought panadene? active ingredients are paracetamol AND codeine :cheers:

(great for pain :) , terrible for your liver :P )

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • 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
