the q45 is 90mm so to change from the stock rb25 item you will need to change the pipework and pod adapter as well, as the ones you have will be the 80mm size

change wiring

change pipework to 90mm or use a silicon joiner / grower (power intake kit does this)

get pod filter adapter to suit 90mm instead of 80mm

Hey all,

I have bought a Q45 AFM for my RB25. It is fitted with a GT2540R Turbo. Has anyone fitted one yet and can you tell me what adaptors or changes are needed fpr the plumbing from a stock AFM. Wiring I have sorted already.

Regards,

Jeremy

start with telling us what you are using from your turbo to your standard afm!

are you still running the standard intake black crinkled hose?

if so you will need to thro that over your left shoulder and replace it with some shiny new stainless or alum, and then use silicon joiners to suit.its not hard, just run what ever size your turbo comp cover is forward about six inches then bend it out and adapt to suit your new afm and any plumb back blow off valve returns can be welded in just past the bend.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
