could it be a dirty lifter?

guy i was talking to at a work shop thinks it will be just that....

and a oild change and filter should fix it.... sounds to good to be true

but i did start it today cold and it had the rattle then... after a couple of seconds went away and wouldnt do it till i slowly held the throttle till it got up to around 3500 4000rpm? befor it had the rattle again.....

good point about the oil pump - thats what worries me about just swapping bearings. where is the bearing material that has come loose? in the oil pump? in an oil gallery? in the turbo oil feed? in the oil filter block/cooler? in another bearing?

If you've spun a bearing, disassemble and clean the whole motor

its all out now... so far its looking like its just starting to spin the big end on number 6 it went in today to get looked at rebuilt ect.....

im going to do the clutch while its out and machine the fly wheel... just to be safe, has a few hot spots and is a little worn...save pulling it out later on

also only has the stock dump pipes on the stock turbos are they worth changing? didnt look to bad for stock i thought....if so who make bolt on replace ment ones?

and what kind of head gaskit should i run?

how good are stock ones for?

it has had a bigger metal one in it...it has cp pistions rods ect all ready, do the cp pistions raise the comp at all? thanks in advance steve

    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
