Yeah it has been painted over, but it was by the previous owner - at some stage I want to take it off and get it redone or stripped back to metal...

As for the TT pipe, actually bought that off here, it had been beadblasted back :banana:

i am so going to copy you lol..

looks as though you painted over on your plenum (i suppose due to flaking) if so what did you use cause i'll need to do that too haha

also how did you clean the twin turbo pipe?

is that actually a rb25 with rb26 rocket/cam covers? are they straight fit?

ii want to do something similar but with "RB30" writtn into it

anyone that could offer me tips would be GREAT!!!!

its an rb26 head and rocker covers onto an rb25

he has etched out a corner of the 6 to make it a 5

people have done it the same to make it say RB30 as well

you just work on the lettering of the 26 to make it say 30

Close :laugh: It's all RB25, including the head. It's an adapter to keep the ITB from the RB26, and like you said, the covers bolt right on. I did have to trim the "ears" of the backing plate some for the timing cover to fit. That's got to be tough to make it say RB30. Would you add extra material with a welder or somthing?

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
