Morng mangs!

Anyone know the size of the stock RB25 turbo inlet? Is it 2 3/4"?

How hard is it to get some piping that will go from the stock intake up to 4"? Don't know the first thing about where to look. Or could I just use a silicone joiner that goes from my intake pipe -> 4" inlet on a new turbo?

Just about any performance shop should be able to make up something for you.

I don't think you'll be able to use a silicone joiner as the stock intake pipe is plastic. If you use a pod you MAY be able to clamp the stock intake onto a short bit of ally the right size then use a silicone joiner to bring it up to 4". But that will be a big restriction in the inlet...

over 9000

This.

you can slide a 2.5" pipe over the inlet nicely. I did this with my old setup on the Telstar. Cut 2 slits in the pipe and clamped it to the inlet.

I cant find a pic of it, but if I do I'll post it up.

I also hate rain and being in places that require some travel. I'm lucky I wasn't in Rocky a day later than I was, otherwise I'd still be there.....

im lucky i left my girlfriends place when i did. 2 days later the weir river cut the road so now the skyline would have no chance of getting out, i need a 4wd

@Colin: Contact this guy: http://motamota.r31skylineclub.com/index.php?topic=132962.msg1525770#msg1525770

Also @ Colin: I put fuel in the Pergeot, it took almost 55L and wasn't even empty yet. So yeah, it just has an epic big tank for a small car.

Also @ Colin: Are your rims 4/5 stud or just 4 stud? I may actually be interested if they are 4/5...

So we could get 5% off if we get 4 turbos high flowed at te same time by hypergear. He starts back at work around 8th feb...

I don't know about Colin but I'm 100% stud ! LOL

Well that's like $50 off, which is not bad, but not good enough for me to wait around till the end of January. I'd rather pay the extra $50 and get my car back on the road sooner...

So if you can sort out your four so we can send them off next week them I'm in, otherwise I'm out.

Thanks Dude :)

@Colin: What was the name of that tuning place you were telling me about?

It doesn't matter if you wanna pay more or not, he's not back at work til the 8th

Unless you were talking about someone other than hypergear?

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
