Worst part I found was removing the oil and water lines from behind the turbos, It took me about 2 days working nice and slowly removing everything as I didn't want to damage anything and as soon as I started getting a bit hot under the collar I'd close the shed doors and walk away for a while.

Other than that it wasn't that bad. I'd never had to do anything like this before, not a mechanic either. Mainly worked on falcons and such where there was heaps of room and very simple setup.

When I took mine out I followed the workshop manual. Putting them back in I sat and thought about how bloody hard it was getting them out. Mounted the front turb and manifold first, then the rear manifold, then the rear turbo I brought up past the bellhousing and bolted it up. Then I fitted all the oil and water lines afterward.

There are some good writeups on how to do it on here and www.gtr.co.uk

Have fun.

      Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.
