  1. This is a photo of the throttle body and intake plenum on my car. Is that a normal amount of blowby?
  2. yea im investing in a catch can too, need to find a thread on whats good. the shaft had play in it too and i cant get that repaired sop i went high flow. might as well upgrade while its there.
  3. i had a little understatement earlier, hasnt been in my garage in a while and realise the turbo blades were caked in oil and there was oil coming from the centre housing. so far i have it down to turbo and cooler pipes. sparks plugs had a bit of carbon but no more then you'd expect from 8 months old plugs
  4. alright awesome. stao i'll give you a call when im finsihed tafe today around 1:30 to organise more. i have the turbo off the car and ready to go. high flow low boost it is
  5. ok sweet, so boost wont be made higher by the turbo it'll only be if i screw around with it? (i owned a commodore before this so im a mostly cluless with turbo boos etc.)
  6. sorry for starting up an old one again but i just want to ask when putting the highflow on did you have to get the tune and suppoting mods straiight away? or can you just run it for as long as you want till you can afford supporting mods?
  7. yea i have a bit of saving to do. my car isnt even on the road yet as it shit itself before i could even get a roady for it which i think was my 3rd drive in it haha, i have got an offer of a second hand greddy ultimate already but not sure how long till i'll even be able to use it. i also need to get my manual license and do a conversion before i start winding it up like crazy. (only on my first year of green p's btw). thanks for the suggestions and help that's a thanks to everyone else on here as well btw
  8. the idle was shit but i dont think it'd be pistons or rings becuase i could hold the revs above 2,000 rpm and it would hold the revs smooth no bad sounds or anything. i will take the plugs out tonight and put up photos of everything tonight
  9. i've already wasted 1 r34 airbox trying to fit it up. i need a stagea one im pretty sure
  10. got that all written down haha. cheers for the help. looks like i got some saving to do
  11. alrighty then thanks, so the product is actually e-manage blue? i guess i'll just be on google for a few days. second hand standard turbo did you mean?
  12. alright sweet cheers will try find a good ecu. i got people who can hopefully help with a tune
  13. by not great do you mean better than stock but nothing crazy? i need my turbo repaired anyway which is why im doing the high flow
  14. i couldnt find anybody who had done this before. wanted it from experience not what a shop says (i do trust hypergear). mayb i didnt look in the right spots. cheers
  15. wont be able to do this for a little while coz of parking in places i shouldnt tossing up between second hand standard as well.
  16. considering getting a hypergear highflow on my turbo as i want something i can upgrade later on but still run standard boost and not break the bank on a nig turbo. just want to know if people have had experience with it. already been through the hypergear thread and called them about an hour ago. just want to hear other peoples opinions before i got ahead and do this. cheers
  17. hey Stao, just wondering if an over haul can be done on an rb25NEO turbo? does it include a re-seal?
  18. i will put up photos of the turbo and throttle body and intake pipes if anyones interested too see?
  19. i think the smoke was caused by the turbo seal (just going with the general advice i've been getting). not saying your wrong by any means because im not really in a position to doubt anybody haha. comp test definately if it keeps smoking up im just really hoping it is the turbo
  20. yea im pretty sure cold side cooler pipe wasnt fitted properly so when i was on the freeway it makes sense it would just blow off. so re-seal on the turbo and fit it together and see what happens
  21. looking for the items in the title. turbo to fit rb25NEO and a standard airbox for the "00 rsfour stagea
  22. turbine was clean but i also didnt get the turbo off for a few days but just spinning it in my hand i had oil coming down the blades. and it looks pretty gumky but not litres at all. it didnt drip out of the pipes or anything. im gonna try get a new turbo first get that back together then do a comp test as im getting a bit lost with all the parts in my garage.
  23. yea had the cooler pipe off for a while and cleaned it up when i did. but all through the cold side and into the throttle body there was a fair bit of oil so im hoping its the turbo, if it was seals the oil would be on the echaust side of the turbo and not through the intake? that make sense or am i just rambling like the rb noob i am?
  24. also it was blue smoke pouring out the exhaust
