hi guys..

I just purchased a turbo on the weekend off an RB25det.

my question is this..

the hose that goes from the wastegaste acutator diaphram.. where does it connect on the turbo?

On my standard RB20 turbo, it connects on the back of the compressor.

but I can't find where it is on the RB25 turbo.

Can anyone tell me?

or better yet, have a picture of it that they can point out?

thanks.

I wasn't implying that you didn't know your car.

I had never seen that before is all.

so it doesn't connect to the compressor at all?

it goes directly from your wastegate acutator diaphram all the way up to near the throttle body?

and say when you want to connect a Bleed valve... you splice that line and connect it in there?

The wastegate hose connects to the pipe that comes out of the intercooler and goes into the inlet of the motor.

The actual position of the tee off feed off of the pipe is where the pipe is cloest to the turbo, so the lenght of the pipe is about 4-5 inches long.

They use this methoud on the R33's so it gives better boost stability over different conditions. So the R33's are less prone to drop boost on a hot day etc.

This is cause it measures the preasure after the intercooler - well, this is the theory anyway !!!

the watse gate actuator hose runs directly to the boost solenoid, which is controlled by the ECU in the 33's. The 32's are not controlled by the ecu, maximum boost is controlled by the waste gate spring tension. If ytou just plumb that hose to the presurised side of the turbo you'll only get around 3 lbs boost, as this is the default for limp mode. The solenoid controls boost by interupting pressure from the manifold to the waste gate actuator.

    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
