yep cheers, i was thinking of just welding a little connection close to the bottom of the stock outlet pipe.

Just wondering if anyone has used some flexible hose duct for turbo to afm as in this pic: http://us1.webpublications.com.au/static/i...i5/0599_4mg.jpg Where do you get this stuff from, and can it withstand the temps needed? Pros/cons? Any advice appreciated

yep i know that that is the wastegate actuator. I know i run a line from the little yellow thing, but to what? Normally you connect it to another small nib on the compressor cover, but in the case of this turbo there is nothing on the cover.

Ok, what i want to know is where to i connect the wastegate line to on this turbo? Usually there is a little connection point on most turbos on the COMPRESSOR cover, though there is nothing on this turbo. It is a VQ30 turbo. My old rb20 turbo did have the connection on the comp cover but this turbo doesnt. So where do i connect the wastegate line to? Should i add a little connection somewhere on the outlet pipe? http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/at...=&postid=440959 http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/at...=&postid=440966

ok heres another

.

note above, just measured the compressor inlet, it is 49mm

ok can fit 3 fingers easily in the exhasut inlet, compressor inlet is approx 48mm to 49mm,

this is stupid but ive never done it before, how do i measure each? Get out a ruler?

What kind of turbos use this same pattern? Im sure ive seen it before. Need to know asap!!!!!! http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/at...=&postid=440546

i know that this is a common exhaust pattern, but i cant think of which types of turbos use similar patterns

sorry for the quality, but take note of the different exhaust housing compared to the rb20 turb

Just picked myself up a turbo off a VQ30det, and the only info i can find is that this engine is an alloy block, an update of the vg30det. A similar engine (VQ35DDE or something) is used in the 350Z. THe turbo itself is in very very good condition with minimal shaft play. Physically the turbo is a fair bit bigger than my rb20 turbo, and it also has a Steel exhaust wheel. One weird thing is that the exhaust housing is not of the regular shape. Ill post a pic or two for viewing. Another interesting characteristic is the exhaust flange. It is not a regular rb20/25/vg30 item. Ill get some clearer pics tomorrow for everyone to see. Any idea what kind of power this thing is capable of? The VQ30DET engine is rated at 206kw stock.

It pays to speak to people who have had their car dyno'd at a certain place. It may save you time and money!

ok cheers

how accurate are autometer a/f gauges. I have myself one, dont know how well it works, though it looks pretty cool.

this may be a stupid question, but how did you cut the steel bends? Hacksaw would be my best bet?

how about slowing down and then you wont get caught?

Will the rb20 exhaust housing fit straight onto a rb25 turbo? Basically i chipped one of the blades on my rb20 turbo and there is a rb20 turbo for sale minus the exh housing for sale atm.

Just wondering if anyone has experimented with any form of microfuler/extra injector contoller and inparticular the hks aic. Are good results gained? Any opinions. Anyone have the wiring instructions for the hks aic? :):

As above, im after the stock oil/water lines and fittings. Anyone have any???? Cheers Anthony

how come you have a standard r32 turbo? is this the turbo that came off the r31? Ill give u 200 bucks for the turbo and can pick up tomorrow (monday).

if u do some reading ull find that there are no real great improvements using the vg30 over the rb25 turbo. Have a search on this site!

just read the date of the first post - sorry about that:)

If i can remember right: 16v is rb20 45v1 is vg30bb 45v2 " 45v4 is rb25 turbo
