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!!!!

Edited by R34NRG

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?

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
