Just need to work out which lines need to be blocked and which I need to use, can someone tell me what each of the following do?

1) two small air fittings coming off the top piece of the inlet manifold?

2) two large fittings coming down from the top piece of the inlet manifold with rubber hoses attached?

3) a short piece of rubber hose coming out the back of the water way (bottom piece of inlet manifold)?

4) smaller barb thats attached to block near thermostat? (bigger barb goes to heater).

5) opposite side of block, for turbo water return, do I use top hole or bottom hole (located towards back of block)?

Thanks people.

1, front is for FPR back is for standard boost gauge

2, for that big f**k off thing thats under the standard plenum.. to tired to think of its name

3, water return that runs around the back of the head (there is also one running to the front) make sure you replace that bloody piece of hose with a nice new quaility silicon item.. they are an absolute bitch to change while in the car.

4, i cant remember i'll have a look sometime tomorow

5, get a picture of it.. i have a feeling your talking about the water feed tho

also little bit more info on wat your tryin to setup could help possibly

RB30/26 engine upgrade using power FC d-jetro and stock GTR loom. T04z trust turbo kit.

So from whats been said:

1) FPR and boost gauge

2) Block off

3) Water return from turbo (can use either front or back as in attached pic but front would be better so less hot water is going past intake manifold).

4) Block off or below?

5) Water to turbo top one, block the bottom one

Also block the other small barb on passenger side rear of block or attach back to 4 so when the heater switch is turned off the water runs back to the engine side of thermostat???

4 is coolant feed to the oil cooler I am pretty sure. which you dont need with your oil relocation. it has a return somewhere too

also, I am pretty sure you need to join and not block off 2. It is for balancing pressure across the manifold due to the multiple throttles

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
