using this diagram

for the rb25det ecu, what would you have your kill switch cutting?

'start switch' sounds like a good one to me? i guess i could always go the fuel pump relay too , but if theres any fuel in the rail, it will still start :(

(btw i have a 3 point immobilizer and alarm, this is just extra)

grab the IGN feed on the ECU. that will stop it. fuel pump is another. the car WILL NOT start and run with no fuel in the rail. if it primes yes but no prime =no fuel so no go.

My mates RX7 got stolen with the fuel cut. Only got down the road though but still got his subs and cd's.

does not have to be from the ecu, maybe power feed to the igniter, that way it will crank but not start and hopefully they just think the car is f**ked and leave it.

A better way to do it is a good alarm to deter them from getting in to begin with.

kill switch should be a latching relay type - ie you have to turn key to ON, hit switch, then start car. if it's just a simple switch you'll get lazy, a proper latching relay stopped my R31 from getting pinched.

  • 4 weeks later...

anyone know which number wire to cut from the ecu to kill the ignition I ended up just cutting the fuel pump relay supply, the car will still run but only for about 5 seconds, I also tried cutting the afm ground and ignition grounds but car still ran (i dont want to chop anymore wires until i'm sure now)

I used the ecu pin out diagram from here http://paulr33.skylinesaustralia.com/

that was the problem there are multiple 12V feeds (well 3 i can see straight off) to the ecu it was starting to get to a chop and try to start it sort of thing but didnt want to mess the loom up too much if someone knows which wire exactly to chop, maybe I could just intercept the eccs relay. Wires I tried were 109, 10, 26 but car can run without these surprisingly

well i spent a good part of saturday on this... and now it works... :) it was a bit harder then i thought it would be but in the end it was worth the work... i just got back from a "test drive" as it were and no problems what so ever... i cannot start the car unless i hit the push button and then away she goes... i can only energise the relays once the car is turned over to the "ON" position... the "ACC" wont allow power to the relays and the relays will stay energised untill the car is turned off... i chose 2 cut 16, 18 & 43... i have the option (if i decide to later) to cut more I/O to the ECU but unless i have a good enuf reason to do this, i dont think it is necessary...

ill probably post up a "how to" on how to do this later on... that is, when i get all my shit together... lol

parts costed me <$50 and a bit of electrical know how... its not as hard as it seems but it is "hard" to go cutting wires to the ECU, especially when uve just bought a PFC...

    • Yeah they sure are available for import now, its great news Matt, You need an import specialist insurer, nothing has really changed over the years about the mainstream insurance companies not touching them. I have my cars with Lumley (same group as NRMA etc) because they insure imports and have a good concept of "stable use" where as long as no more than 2 cars are being driven each day you can have them all on a good rate, I've also had no issues with claims through them. Note they won't insure a car if you take it to the track, even for an off track claim. Shannons are another option but I had a lot of trouble with their claims (they were happy to take the premiums, not so keen to pay out), and I'm sure there are other import specialists too 
    • I'm a lifelong home drummer, was in a couple of bands as a teenager/early 20's then moved to Japan and didn't play at all until 2019 when my missus and I were invited to check out the band room upstairs at a restaurant cafe here in JP. They had a full acoustic drum kit and they let me have a bash for about 20 mins. I went away from there wondering how I could not play for 19 years.... Missus bought me a e-drum kit a few weeks later (Yamaha DTX402) which is basic but lets me play at home in my tiny Japanese house.  Also have an Epiphone Les Paul and little Vox amp and delay pedal I bought for the missus because she wanted to learn to play the guitar, but she never got into it. That was about 8 years ago. I taught myself to play some 80's U2 song riffs like the Fly solo, etc and some other things but being a drummer I don't really have the dexterity in the fingers lol. Ham fisted if you will. So I kind of just mess around with the guitar rather than try to seriously play complete songs. My son on the other hand inherited all my side of the family's musical talent and is a brilliant classical pianist at 16 years old. He'll go on to do something in the music industry here for sure once he finished his schooling. I got him a Yamaha NU1XA hybrid piano earlier this year.
    • If the BOV is plumbed in as mentioned, like stock.... why exactly would it stall? It'd be like stock. Do stock cars stall with stock bovs?
    • You mean a rich spike, as the air has been metered multiple times due to the turbulent air, you end up injecting more fuel causing a momentary dip in torque and quite possibly a stall event. TL;DR, install a Haltech Elite or S3 or R3, convert to DBW, throw all ancient shit into the bin and enjoy the car.
