Hey all.

Any southeners after some spare change one weekend?

I ordered an HKS Heavy Duty adjustable turbocharger actuator of Nengun last August and received it in December. 5 months later I still cant see when it would get fitted.

Are there any handy-andy's down south who wouldnt mind getting their hands dirty for a) $70 cash?, b) or 2x bottle of spirits such as Jim Beam, c) or a premium case of beer, to install the hks turbo actuator for me? Just too hard on my knees to bend over the bonnet and work on the car with no kneecaps..... last time I installed splitfires (1 month ago) I was ruined for a week lol.

Ive got some tools, fairly basic, and got room in the garage out of wind/rain etc. Live in morphett vale and am a very friendly host, the water billy can be fired up & passed around no worries :D

Just after one southener who wouldnt mind sparing an hour of his/her time, for shop rates (boostwerks is around $70 for an hour) and I cant see why the actuator would be more than an hour to install and set to 1 bar?

Brenden, when you looking to do this? I should be free June 14/15 if you want a hand then. If beforehand, someone else should be able to help you.

I have the R33 workshop manual still too, so should make working things out rather easy :D

Its a standard RB25 turbo, but highflowed front and rear housings by Sliding Performance, with oil/water journal bearing centre.

Using stock rb25 actuator atm.

How much did the highflowing cost ya tangles....and what are the benefits of getting that done!

BTW the bov is f**kn awesome mate no probs whatsoever

It's either a 1 bar actuator which means no need to use a bleed valve to run the desired 1 bar, or For Example, Spike can be caused with a standard 4-5psi actuator because the bleed valve needs to work alot harder to bleed alot more air to reach the desired psi, where as say a 10psi actuator is already close enough to the 1 bar mark so therefore doesn't need as much bleeding hence less spike.

Done Ryan!!

sweeet ! cheers matey, if youve done it before should be all good.

its a 1bar (14.7) actuator, and Im tuned for 1bar as well with a dual stage ebc (albeit drops to 12 psi, hence this actuator needs to be installed).

sending you a PM, cheers for offering

hey Krishy!

yeah the highflows arnt done by Slide anymore, unfortunately.

I got a good deal, supplied 2x ruined turbos and some cash (under 700) for the highflowed turbo, steel wheels, 360deg bush bearing, oil and water cooled, rated 250rwkw at 1bar.

Other shops do similar highflows, journal bearing, for around 1300.

Glad to hear the BOV is good, sounds pretty cool hey! I miss it :down:

Rub's, yeah mate has an Apexi mechanical boost guage. Ryan says he's done heaps before, and if he doesnt mind a drive and a billy and a gift of a) b) or c) then its all looking good atm. sent a PM ryan. :bunny:

yeah the slide-highflows are pretty decent

mines just a stage "2" highflow, the stage "3" has the VG30 rear housing

my inlet and exhaust have been ported to the extreme !

ryan, Ive got some tools (you'd probably want to bring some of your trusties along tho), a real good jack, and some dodgy wheel ramps if needed. only thing is with no kneecaps I cant kneel or squat or stuff like that :bunny:

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
