  1. https://web.archive.org/web/20170212022106/http://rb26.net/index.php/guides/3-installing-a-greddy-style-plenum-into-a-rb25det this link works fine for me, pictures, no issues. for those with issues, i just saved it as a PDF. it ruins the webformatting, but its printable version with pictures. Installing a Greddy style intake plenum into a RB25DET.pdf
  2. ill be removing head to do the oil restriction and rear head drain.. so ill do all the power upgrades ahead of time.
  3. I have used mamba housings in the past, but only ran into an issue with my falcon (the two i used on sr20 t28 and the rb25 gt30 hosuing seemed fine) I ordered a 1.04 housing and fitted that up. on the dyno she was boosting quite early and droping off in the top end with to much exhaust back-pressure (pushing the gate open). Physical size comparison vs the garret 1.04 housing, the mamba was more rear world similar size to a garret .8 housing. i ended up switching to a garret 1.04 rear housing and the spool was back to standard xr6 amounts but it would hold a solid boost line and not blow the gate open. just be weary of the potential for sizing mismatch.
  4. i am digging up an old thread, but im also wondering the same thing - as golbys sell the 1.3mm gasket and head bolts together it must be a common combo?
  5. if were talking a piece of the porcine insulator from the spark plug - get it out and don't start the car before you clear it. if were talking a small piece of soft plastic then meh. if your worried about your turbo blades, remove the actuator from the exhaust flap and leave the flap wide open. the exhaust gas will take the path of least resistance and there is a verry good chance it will go out the wastegate hole not the turbine blades.
  6. X2 agree with all points made by GTSBOY.. Those 460's are power hungry, so make sure you run appropriate wiring to them, they will eat 20amp... if its in tank remove the electrical fittings and fit post type terminals to cope with the higher power demand.
  7. Most Nissan turbos use those 370cc side feed injectors. AFAIK s1/s2 fuel injectors are interchangeable. SR20 turbo motors use same injectors, with the exclusion of the jap s15 motor that has 440cc ones, or 380cc if you believe the hype/run 4 bar base pressure. TBH i haven't done enough reading into this fault you refer to about the injectors being lower quality, nor heard of it before. Im pretty sure anyone who touches an ethanol blend on these cars, has changed injectors. if you serious about hating the injectors, perhaps look at replcing them with a newer one....i doubt your going to find any stock sized ones tho. places like detcaworks do the 550 cc bolt in replacements but obviously you would need a tune.
  8. cheers for the write-up, ive been considering this mod, but getting "kit" from Gobbys... i know when i went LS coils on my sr/nistune, the ecu would ocasially throw up an ignition error code (dosent put up a error light, just pulls it up in ecu errors) ... is this the same for this swap? the dwell time on the sr, whitch i think is similar to the rb is dependent on voltage and RPM, but most of the time you will see it around 2.5 to 3 Ms
  9. WA WTB R32 Rad Fan Shroud WTB R32 Rad Fan Shroud in wa will consider with stock rad. cheers
  10. the much awaited update! well maybe not much awaited, but an update non the less. the first day was a 40deg day and the skyline was boiling the coolant...dident help that i dont have a fan shroud installed. Installed a thermo fan on the radiator (from one of the dead cars parts stack) wired that into the headlight loom, because dont have headlights. after that the temps stayed under control. The exhaust was trying really hard to melt the loom on the first day, so i built a heat shield and covered it in the heat tape. replaced the hicas with a lock-bar car ran great all weekend! here is some pics.
  11. Yeah the paddock is full of sheep...they usually all run away when we come down but this one was a little late to the party. Thats not the whole track btw, that's just the "short track" its split-up so you can race two cars at the same time. (crosses over, so you do long, then short, or if your on the other side short then long) a few of the guys have made videos of our adventures over the years...next weekend will be the weekend for racing and im pretty excited to thrash the skyline for 4 days /insert Bimbadeen Racing Plug https://www.facebook.com/BimbadeenRacing https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL95HXPRv0gTQ8KIQ7wPAOg2IwqyRDMZCU
  12. R33 farmcar. Who like's no-fuks-given builds? Gday Blokes This will be for the boys who enjoy backyard crap, not full blown nice builds. So we have a farm, that farm has a race track and each year we run a few events and buy shit cars to race, now if your quick you can pickup a few imports cheap...last year i went out with a stock sr20det 180sx that i later turned into a full drift build......a few months ago I picked up a crashed and shit R33 skyline. friends The car was pretty molested and shit, after tidying up lots of things I tried to get it started......long story short it had been sitting over 5 years in the weather and the engine was full of water/rust and all sorts of bad crap....i measured 0 compression on cyl 1 and 2 - then gave up testing. * rusted fuel pump / replaced with a spare walbro had sitting around. the fuel in the tank has melted all the seals and gone off. Pulled the motor out and went and got another 25 (because im sucker for pain) Clutch was u/s but i had a new one around for another project..so that went in. installed new thermostat, lower temp tridon one, i think its 70deg open. Installed a r32 rad i had lying around, had to remake the bottom mounts, make it sit higher + different rubber mounts type. Installed an intercooler on the front reo bar Made up some nice short pipework, to go through the front light cutouts. bonnet was bent, so threw it out made a short "dose" "snorkel" pipe or whatever you want to call it. made a twin top exit exhaust got a r32 ecu nistuned for the rb went out to farm for a test run So pretty excited for Australia day weekend, as that is race / play weekend! and there it is, shitty r33 for your pleasure.
