sold

hey guys i bought it around new year, so only a couple of months old... its all in perfect condition.. come with everything... its the 40gb hard drive... the reason i am selling it is i never use it anymore and i am going to get a wii.. cheers leigh.

as the title says ps3 hardly used.... comes with ps3 console 2 controlers Grand theft Auto 4 Call of Duty 4 all in perfect condition reciepts for all S.E. Subs melbourne $650 firm!

i didnt bother with mine..

i have a gt30r on my rb30det which is very similler to your turbo.. garrett recomends that if your engine runs anymore than 60psi at maximum you need to put another restrictor in the line... i think the happy pressure is around 40 psi .. your turbo comes standard with a restrictor in the shaft but i just used the standard restrictor in the stock oil line.. it depends what oil lines you are going to be using for your turbo... but there has been many people that have not worried about restrictors, and they have run fine.. if your bearings start leaking you know u need a restrictor... lol.

i still need one? any1 have one?

ok my turbo has been rebuilt.. i am picking it up on monday.. before i put it back on i want to check a couple of things first, so the same thing doesnt happen again.. i am going to get a oil pressure guage to make sure its all good as the stock one is all over the place at times... for the oil supply to the turbo i sort of made up my own line.. it uses the stock banjo fitting off the block with the restrictor.. then i welded a speedflow fitting on the line and continued the rest with braided line and speedflow fittings..the turbo itself does have its own restrictor built it i am told.. so does this mean i am restricting the oil to much? or have i done it right? shouldd i drill out the restrictor in the banjo fitting first? what have u guys done? cubes...?? lol thanks leigh.

any1 else?

hey all just an update.. running the stock turbo now.. quiet funny making full boost by 2000rpm.. i took the turbo to mtq turbos and they have quoated me $1410 to get it re built.. they said they found gunk inside it so looks like the oil feed got blocked by something and starved the turbo of oil... but since i have had my stock turbo on i have noticed the oil pressure all over the place!!! yesterday it was fine.. i changed the oil, 15/60. and the pressure sat on 4 while driving and 2 on idle... but today on the way to work it would only go as high as 3 then after stopping for fuel and re starting the engine it went back up to 4 when driving... but on the way home it went up to 2 - 3 and would not go any higher.. i turned the car off and on and it stayed the same... so it is building oil pressure to around 2 on idol then stays there or goes no higher than 3 when driving.... the oil information i have for the engine follows.... -blocked rear oil feed. -1.8 restrictor up front -rb25de oil pump. what could be the cause of this? could it be a faulty guage? or a problem somewhere? what do u guy think i should do? and how to go about fixing it? i dont want to put the new turbo back on and have it blow again in a couple of weeks!!! all help appreciated!! thanks leigh.

yeah rb20det

bump!!

oh ok, where would be a good local place to get it cheaked out (s.e. subs melb) sam said he has a mate that could look at it.. but thats on the other side of the city and i now have no car to drive... edit: with what you guys said about it being an oil suply problem.. could this have been something to do with what i did? or just a bit of gunk blocking the oil feed line? as the engine has been running fine for a month.. if it were something i did it would have happened much sooner??

the oil pressure sits around 4.. exactly the same as the 20.. sometimes it did go down to 2.. but the rb20 used to do the same thing?? could this have been a reason? what sort of price would i be looking at to get the turbo rebuilt? looking at that i dont want to spend thousands more on this car with cams manifold etc.. it would be like starting again!! 270 - 300 rwkw is pleanty for me.. how do i cheak that the motor is still in good nick? and doesnt have low oil pressure? why would it have low oil pressure? dodgy oil pump?

BAD NEWS PEOPLE!!! went back up yesterday to get it re tuned.. was going quiet well.. we had it at 17 psi and with no timming and it was making 260rwkw then suddelny i heared a scratching noise so we turned the car off and then started it agin to see where it was comming from and it was the turbo!!!! so we pulled the filter off the front and the turbo was shagged!! the wheel was loose as and scraping on the front housing!! i havnt taken the turbo off yet coz i was sick all last night.. so when i feel better i will get into it!! i dont know whats caused it? any ideas would be good!! i am thinking of getting a 3540 for it instead.. but i dont want to spend another $2000 on the turbo and have it shit its self again.. i dont know weather it was because the turbo was old and at the end of its life or if something blooked up the oil feed line? the car was running sweet for a month so i dont think it was anything i did..??? please give me opinions everybody on what you think i should do, what could have caused it., and how to prevent it?? i have heard of gunk blocking the oil feed line and a way to fix it is to run some sort of filter in there???? thanks leigh.

bump these things have to go!!

sweet.. well all the silicon joiners are on now and its booked in for thursday for the retune.. so i will let you know how it goes and post dyno sheets.. leigh.

i have both types for sale.. r32/s13 and r33/34.. there are two different types and i have them both.. are the plugs you are talking about to block the hydrolics for r32/s13? if so no they dont i just used rubber hose when fitting mine.. works a treat.. r33's dont use hydrolics so there are definately no need for any plugs..

no its not that as i borrowed another rubber joiner off a mate till the silicon ones came in so there is no longer any split joiners!! i think it is what cubes said.. i am about to go out and fix it all now.. but i did clean all that out about 6 months ago.. didnt think it would build up this fast...

i have driven this car with this kit on it... so i can personally vouch that it is the real deal and the power delivery is incredible this is the perfict turbo kit for an rb25!!! good luck with the sale ryan..

yeah it can be done.. and has been done many times.. have a look in the rb30 thread all answers are in there... silicon joiners arived today.. i also orded some dirty big clamps so they will come tommorow.. so it will go for its propper tune sometime next week.. slight problem i have noticed today though... once the engine is warmed up it seems to be hunting at idle.. sometimes really bad!! so much that i have to steady it up with my foot or it will stall... it stalled probly about 5 times on the way home from work.. when i go to put my foot down it hesitates, drops about 100rpm, then takes off.. i hope this is making sense? i belive it could be something to do with the TPS? if i let the revs drop from anything over 3000rpm it will drop all the way to 0 then, if it doesnt stall, run back up to about 1500 - 2000 rpm then run real shite and conk out... i also have a dodgy coil pack somewhere.. it has only happened once but it ran on 5 for about 5 mins then became fine.. so i will have to wait till it does it again to find which one it is.. could this be something to do with it? thanks leigh.
