It sure is. I'm running the show today :whistling:

Oh btw I pressurised my intake piping last night, all my clamps etc were fine. The only thing I found was the line going to my boost gauge seems to be leaking. I unhooked it from the plenum and did it again, the only sound was now coming from that hookup at the back of the plenum. So some more vacuum hose on the way home from work this arvo and we'll see how she goes tonight.

Could that really be causing a few psi to leak though?

That's what happen to my car on the weekend, had no boost at all via the gauge, but car was fine, new hose and she's sweet. I suppose every little bit helps.

I have a leak somewhere too! Was driving along the other night and gave it its first real bootful for a few weeks and as it came on boost it sounded like a stock RB25 turbo (Ie Vaccume cleaner) and was slow as hell, Drives fine normally but so im gussing a split some where that blows open under high pressure then seals up ok at low pressure.

It could certainly make you guage read many PSI lower.

Would also potentially affect how the car runs. Anything with an AFM (ie skylines) will be particularly sensitive to boost/vac leaks.

Oh and screw black ops, get this into ya

Nice.

I removed my AFM and replaced it with a full baked bean can (clamp it in tight)

Then I pulled the cooler piping -> actuator vacuum hose and replaced it (on the piping nipple) with a bike tyre valve on a piece of hose and all clamped tight, then hooked that up the my compressor set @ 10psi.

Worked a treat, cost me $7 hahaha.

Oh, plus the baked beans. But now I'm gonna have them for lunch so it's win-win!

Tas called me last night and wanted to catch up. So i said yeah meet me near my place. So I walk down to the car park and there he is standing next to a black guy. I'm like its midnight, abandoned carpark with an asian and a black guy. Yep totally legit. Then after a bit 3 cop cars come out of nowhere arrest some drunk guy down the street. Then keep doing circles around the block obviously looking for some other guy but oddly enough driving past us (the legit guys) very slowly. Fun times.

P.s. The black guy was Shan and yes he is very black.

The end.

LOL having an accidental strayan day today. Strayan days so awesome.

AHAHAHAHA! F*ck I laughed at that. You should definitely own a 31 bro.

HAHAHA yeah I thought it was a great idea... I actually got it off this very site...

Is this the same old one? Or a NEW defect??

      Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated. Rb25det s1 walbro255 fuel pump nismo fpr holset hx35 turbo fmic 3" exhaust freddy intake manifold q45tb q45 maf   Re: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Fri Apr 12, 2013 5:07 am No, I didn't. I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
