Its on my X-trail, getting tuned as i speak.

running 7psi hoping for about 260awhp.

QR25DE+T (2.5L 4cyl)

And yeh that's the manifold im using. I took those photos myself, when i was helping my mate make that manifold.

Just trying to find some more specs on it, cos all i was told is its off a Z31 300zx single turbo...

Its bin rebuilt since then, and i didnt get around to asking the guys at turbo tech if they knew.

I have a hi flowed one of those on my 33, if its the normal vg30det turbo then it will have a .6 rear housing, they had ceramic rear wheels standard but that should have been changed when it was rebuilt, if not they can handle 15psi becuase they have a thicker shaft than r33 turbo's, no idea on front wheel and housing sizes as mine uses a standard 33 comp cover that has been machined out to fit the to4 comp wheel.

what are your thoughts about one of your new wastegate actuators (the upgraded beefy ones you'll run on the .82 rears) on OP6 G3 i have?

Its a CAT machinery actuator. by spec its rated to a bout 26psi. I bench tested it, it started to open at 18psi. I got skyline with 5 broken pistons at moment. So waiting for engine overhaul at this stage.

I'm currently under going some creative modifications to stock R33 2IU turbine housing aim is to push out 270rwkws out of this and possible 290rwkws out of the OP6 rear housings. Well only if current meth works.

Thanks for the support guys, I will let you know if I need your car to do trail runs.

268rwkws @16psi out of a Powered up R33 turbo high flow.

Any one's running 300zx here?

320rwkws out of twin ATR25s on a stock VG30dett Z32 with 750cc injectors, SMIC, and flash tune.

how did you go with the "creative mod"?

The creative mod has been sold to kwrickr33 for evaluation so PM him for results.

Water fittings is M18x1.5 same as your stock fittings. PM me if you need the high pressure CAT actuator when ready for tune.

Its $180. Tested it today. It did hold it pretty fine and blewn up my engine again at 21psi. lol Not sure what the $&%^ happened. Engine's comming out again.

Well. It isn't that bad. because the actuator did hold 21psi. So this actuator can hold boost.

It seems to be the EBC's solenoid failed for some reasons. It was holding 9psi, 12 psi, then the last run was on 15psi. It was all smooth then felt just like the boost line to actuator popped off. Boost went sky rocket. and Boom. Actuator is fine.

Just quick note:

Our last day this year is Tuesday 22nd of Dec and will come back on 15th of Jan 2010. I will get all of yours orders made and sent before we finishing off.

It has been an amazing year, I like to thank you all for your support in 2009.

Merry Xmas + Happy new year to you all.

Bugger..... was it forged or stock? 21psi is getting a bit excessive on an old engine too.. you can see why i dont like anything over 19psi unless i know the car intimately.

The engine originally had 5 cracked pistons through the ring lane area. So I replaced those pistons with a set of brand new OEM pistons and rings. I got them for $500 off some one who bought them and ended up forgies. The engine noise you heard earlier was gone straight after rebuild.

My boost gauge has scale for of 20psi so I guess the tuner wasn't be able to read it if its above. So he said 21psi as the niddel stops there. It was running a ATR43G4 which is identical to a GT3582R in .82 rear.

Well its worth spending $3500 to find out the actuator that works. All for science and my customers.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
