no way can i see anything there is just too much shit in teh way and doesnt look very easy to pull it all off.

il go have a look at that exhaust number but in the mean time the actuator has a stamp on it that says 242x02 in black writing and its stamped ASN79 or somthn

4513 pretty sure. the 4, 5 and 3 is a definate confirmation but the 1 sort of looks like a V not sure, thats teh best angle i can get.

45v3.jpg

really looks like a V but not sure.. so i guess if it was that makes it a 45V3 which yeh is off a rb25, but there is a 45V1, 45V2 as well isnt there? whats the dif between them

on what engine?

on an RB25.. yes.. it's too much.

on a smaller rb20 it should be just about as much as you'd want to put through a ceramic exhaust wheeled turbo.

all the pics you've posted have had 20V seca in the name so you could be putting this on a 4age in which case, I've seen people put 17+ through that turbo on those engines.

the RB25 is 500cc larger in capacity.

it can push out x amount more air so to speak.

so people say that the max safe boost setting for a stock R33 gtst is about 10-12psi.

and on a car that is 500cc smaller in capacity, it can handle more boost to put the same amount of strain on the turbo as it does on a lower boost setting when on the RB25.

Also, the RB20 has lower compression than the RB25 which also means more PSI to bring the power/heat to the same levels.

f*k that was a messy post.

its on my R32 GTST - RB20.

why the psi differences? is that due to the fact a RB25 puts out alot more exhaust heat than the RB20?

At 10PSi on a 2.5Litre, compared to a 2L, you're putting through more air. Which means turbo spins faster, which means more heat in the turbo.

Well said. :/

Makes sense when you say it that way.

Thanks,

which also means more power but that's a different point.

on one of my RB20's I bolted an RB25 turbo to, I had the usual mods except FMIC.

with the exhaust and filter being free flowing, and no boost control, the stock car would boost to 11psi. (stock is 10)

Once the RB25 turbo went on and I used a boost controller to bring it to 11 psi (I used the stock actuator instead of the rb20 one so it had 6psi stock), I put it on a dyno and it made 153rwkw.

I think a stock R32 makes around 110rwkw.

an RB25 with stock turbo at 10psi (if it isn't missing and spluttering like a shitbox) will have around the 170rwkw.

an RB20 with stock turbo at stock 10psi but with intake and exhaust mods will have around 130rwkw.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Have a look at that (shitty) pic I posted. You can see AN -4 braided line coming to a -4 to 1/8 BSPT adapter, into a 1/8 BSPT T piece. The Haltech pressure sender is screwed into the long arm of the sender and factory sender (pre your pic) into the T side. You can also see the cable tie holding the whole contraption in place. Is it better than mounting the sender direct to your engine fitting......yes because it removes that vibration as the engine revs out 50 times every lap and that factory sender is pretty big. Is it necessary for you......well I've got no idea, I just don't like something important failing twice so over-engineer it to the moon!

      Yup. You can get creative and make a sort of "bracket" with cable ties. Put 2 around the sender with a third passing underneath them strapped down against the sender. Then that third one is able to be passed through some hole at right angles to the orientation of the sender. Or some variation on the theme. Yes.... ummm, with caveats? I mean, the sender is BSP and you would likely have AN stuff on the hose, so yes, there would be the adapter you mention. But the block end will either be 1/8 NPT if that thread is still OK in there, or you can drill and tap it out to 1/4 BSP or NPT and use appropriate adapter there. As it stands, your mention of 1/8 BSPT male seems... wrong for the 1/8 NPT female it has to go into. The hose will be better, because even with the bush, the mass of the sender will be "hanging" off a hard threaded connection and will add some stress/strain to that. It might fail in the future. The hose eliminates almost all such risk - but adds in several more threaded connections to leak from! It really should be tapered, but it looks very long in that photo with no taper visible. If you have it in hand you should be able to see if it tapered or not. There technically is no possibility of a mechanical seal with a parallel male in a parallel female, so it is hard to believe that it is parallel male, but weirder things have happened. Maybe it's meant to seat on some surface when screwed in on the original installation? Anyway, at that thread size, parallel in parallel, with tape and goop, will seal just fine.

      How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSPT male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSPT reducing bush? I am making the assumption the OEM sender is BSPT not BSPP/BSP

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      I fashioned a ramp out of a couple of pieces of 140x35 lumber, to get the bumper up slightly, and then one of these is what I use

      I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.
