you cannot get rid of the outlet on top of the runners. this is the primary bleed point of the entire system! you need a bleed screw in your line coming off the system and this should connect to the small pipe that comes out of the side of the thermostat. the biggest thing most people do not know about filling an RB25 is that it's meant to take 10 min to fill the system. as in you need to make sure the fluid flows in so slowly that it takes 10 minutes. this way there are no chances for the air to 'lock' anywhere and not allow water to fill a certain section.

the main issues i had was that i could never get good flow. i always had trouble bleeding it. it was setup correctly. in the end i put my normal factory bleed point back in, simplified my cooling system and have never looked back. i will get some pics up soon. sorry, been busy with work and the hi-tec drift all stars series.

hi, i will try and do this on the weekend coming up for you...

hi, here is all you need to know... i had a swirl pot on my car... it actually caused more problems than it was worth. on my R33 in my drift car, i have no water hoses coming off the block at all besides the one from the side of the thermostat housing that i have linked to the top outlet of the head near the front of the engine. this is my bleed point. turbo is hooked up as normal. once i read the service manual on the RB25det thoroughly, i found the biggest mistake everyone makes when filling the coolant system in these engines.... you have to fill it extremely slowly. the specified filling speed is no more than 2L/min. this means you must take 5 min to fill it up! trickle speed....but doing this means there are no airlocks!

This is a great thread and project! Well done!!!

The 8s might be ok...price?

Yes, it's for a drift car with massive lock!

Enkei RP01 5X114.3 17X7.5 +32 Hi, i'm after Enkei RP01 rims in 17x7.5 +32 size. Preferably Sydney/NSW based...

Where is this oil leaking from? Check your intercooler and pipes, could be full of oil which could be blown turbo seals. It could also be broken ring lands, resulting in epic blowby which will dump heaps of oil in your intake. This is never good... This will put some oil on your AFM too.

This no longer applies, I built my own engine.

cool, will txt

location? Comp test results? leakdown test results?

I'm after a built RB25det for drifting. Let me know what you have and how much... Preferably in Sydney or close too...
