Its honestly just sitting pretty ATM. Just PM me an offer and I'll consider it.

It needs a basic clean and recheck with a straight edge and its good to go. Valves/springs/retainers still in place. Will need to look for the buckets, cams are VCT and rusted.

As stated, welded to suit RB30 block, not non VCT yet using typical R33 DET head means easy fitment with Freddys ETC

considering just getting a Kai highflow done on my 0p6 stocker.. should do atleast 270rwkw and full boost around 4000rpm and its LITERALLY bolt on/off.. $1370 and thats it. or is it, i dont know how the stock intake would hold up to it - Stao?

anyone have any updates on their HG turbos?

Not any real updates as of yet, but may have figured out a possible fix for my problems after speaking with Matt from NIStune. The TCS error code is possibly causing problems by pulling fuel unexpectedly. This may be fixable by reprogramming my board with a Stagea image. The boost sensor DTC is similar story, the stock ECU needs the signal from the stock solenoid because it uses boost control tables, but that was removed when we installed my engine and the Greddy Profec.

So I'm slowly working through my issues, nothing concrete yet though.

Why don't you just take brad's advice on how to fix it?

He didn't tell me anything that I didn't already know. This was his last PM to me:

The Trc code. You need to make sure its plugged in. Its the Brown plug on the back of the TRC motor. Not the main TPS plug at the front. If you dont want TRC you can get rid of it completly but that a little hard to explain. This should rectify both of you abs and TRC codes.

My Car has a Greddy plenum so Its not the same . I think it still has the Abs DTC in there as I dont have TRC anymore.

I Never had it tuned with these faults so I dont know if they would have affected it at all. I fix all the problems

Beforehand as it put the engine light on.

But I do not have TRC, it's been deleted. I have no intention of wiring it up either, I'm not interested in it and the plan is to go forward facing plenum in the future anyway where it would just have to be deleted again. I did ask him how he fixed it with TRC disabled but never got a reply.

Yeh see that would mean wiring everything up. I've got the throttle body and the sensor on the back of it but it's not connected to anything. Would work if I was doing what he did by going to forward facing and the stock setup was all there.

May be easier to use the Stagea image if it works.

Hanaldo, i have the stagea ecu in my R34 for unknown reasons if that helps. Its running R34 maps though and Nistune. No probs, just dont have TCS/Slip, no light nothing..have the dual butterfly in the Tb.

Hey guys,could anybody tell me the size of the dump pipe bolts?

I've just ordered a jjr 3" bell mouth (rb25) and searching has proved fruitless for me, unless im typing in the wrong phrases.

I'm not at home for another 2weeks and would like to have everything waiting for me when i get home.

Cheers guys

P.s Great thread,lots of info

Hey guys,could anybody tell me the size of the dump pipe bolts?

I've just ordered a jjr 3" bell mouth (rb25) and searching has proved fruitless for me, unless im typing in the wrong phrases.

They are M8x1.25 from memory, someone confirm??

It doesn't say if the order comes with anything else so I ordered the permaseal full gasket set for the upcoming highflow purchase.

After reading a few posts on the subject, I thought it might be worthwhile replacing them. If they don't need replacing then spares will always be handy to have.

Thanks for the help guys, M8 1.25 it is. I'll try and get varying lengths and the 10mm head is a great tip Jez.

Can u not use the stock ones? I got bolts n crappy gaskets from just jap when i got my jjr pipe.

You can, but keep in mind that these bolts are 12+ years old now, they've seen a lot of heating up and cooling down. I considered myself very lucky when I didn't snap any of them getting my turbo off for the first time. Better to just replace them in my eyes, makes future removals so much easier.

I actually changed to allen key studs on my last turbo install. Makes getting THAT bolt out a breeze :D

Hi Tao, wondering what the differences are between the SS1 and SS1PU? How much would it cost to make my SS1 into an SS1PU? Is the SS2 a completely different turbo?

First of all, happy new year every one.

SS1PU is a totally different turbo to the SS1 and I found its a lot better turbo with similar sort of response. Pulls lot harder.

I'm currently evaluation CBB G3, customized turbine housings and few different billet high flow profiles at this stage, will have some results posted soon.

I thought you did away with CBB tech? Many of the good/reliable turbos out run journals anyway, so I dont understand the need for change.

Keep your cost low and reliability high :thumbsup:

    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Comparison of the 2: Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
