Just a quick question for you ppl who have installed the freddy manifold, I pulled mine off the other day and noticed I only have 4 bolts underneath holding it on out of the 6 there , anyone else only using 4? I can't remember why I only had 4 on maybe 2 of them didn't line up with the head ?

I'm using all 6 and everything lined up fine. And it is a bit of a pain to do in the car. It's not so bad once you just accept the fact that it's just going to take you all day to do 10 bolts up and crack a few tins while you do it :)

thanks for the quick replies, once i get manifold back i will attempt to line them all up. my manifold was one of the first ones available on market like 5yrs ago, so maybe the newer designed ones are better not too sure!

ill report back

Big horrible thread bump lol.

 

has anyone any other options/links for this or a similar thread? Started my install ages ago and only getting back to it now And haven't a clue how it all went together

the link above for rb26.net doesn't work now either ?

Any help appreciated,

thanks. 

Noone at all save the pictures from it? Even bits and pieces from when you did your own install?

To be more exact, the bottom pipe of the is iacv? Where does it go? IMG_4821.JPG.17576f43860de7d4bed2b7af66bec562.JPG

Which nipple does he extend the turbo water lines to in the guide? I have mine running off the pipe he blocks off beside the thermostat?

what 2 wires need extended?

What is the welded piece of galvanised tube for the aac that's mentioned about?

If anyone could help it'd be massively appreciated. 

Surely someone was smarter than me and saved the thread for offline use....

That open tube you have needs to be plumbed in upstream of the throttle body . Its the air supply for the Idle Air Control Valve . In standard form it connects to a barb on the original crossover pipe - upstream of the throttle body .

For everyone playing at home, its actually pretty simple to do. When you have all the parts and are trying to put it all back toether it makes sense and can only really go together one way. Utilising your brain and the desciption that ix9 provided you can do it.

Bumping this 10 year old thread and asking the OP (who hasn't been online for over a year) for pictures that he has said he ne longer has is proooooobably not going to yield any results. Have you actually searched through this thread as i know for a fat they have been rehosted somewhere else online at least once or twice.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
