I've just got off the phone with UAS and they have had some delays with the manufacturer. At present the arms are getting the final coating done and should be ready in the next couple of weeks.

yea sorry lads as i have not been here for a while( group buy section) as i have not heard anything yet

have given john a kick in the arse.... but he is waiting on a machining shop

if you want to bail i can refund your depsit

john says it will be only a few weeks..so hold on!

if you need a chat or confidence knowing that your 200 hasnt been pissed up against the wall(which it has at the casino)

give us a yell

Will these be for sale after this groupbuy? I wanted to be apart of the GB but funds have been tight up until now.

I really want these so I hope they will be available.

Or if you can ship to Canada and someone is going to drop out I will take there spot!

group buy is sold out so they made 40 and its fully subsribed so john says

So who's on the list to get them? I have money sitting here ready to pay the full amount when ready.

who gets them are the people who fronted the $200 first up

if people pull out then your in

So I went out to Bosenjack engineering today to have a look at these things for myself and get some up to date pics for everyone.

Tell you what they put on the best smoke and mirror show I have ever seen. Awesome workshop, very clean and well equipped. Terry is a tope bloke he took a good half an hour off to show me all the bits and pieces, draw diagrams, answer all my questions, etc etc.

But I guess you all want the pictures? For starters here is a shot showing all of the pieces made up and ready for assembly. I will save black baz the trouble and point out myself that the bits are in fact silver, not black (or paisley, tartan, plaid :P) as previously indicated. This is because the zinc coating process for black is not perfect and can result in a slightly tarnished finish. An executive decision was made to get these done sooner with the better finish than to bugger around trying to get the black finish perfect.

And this is what they look like assembled

Terry's work is far better than the prototype that was supplied. For starters the end pieces are not just welded. The large section is notched and dowl pinned, and the small piece has a ball end at the T piece so that it fits together and is then welded. See illustration below.

The parts have all been heat treated and hardened, and the arms are completely serviceable.

As discussed at some length, the fixing system now uses a cotter pin instead of a grub screw. For those that were as confused as I was, the advantage with a cotter pin is that it is a tapered thread with a nut so that it positively fixes into place and cannot come loose. The picture below shows where the grup screw was used (see red circle) in the original design.

See below for an illustration of how the cotter pin is used in the new arms. Have to stress this is not a brand new design, it's an improvement on the what Terry was originally working with.

So what's the holdup? As I mentioned before the cotter pin is tapered, so you have to drill the tapered hole before you make the pin. At the moment the guys are waiting for the tooling to turn up so that they can drill and make the pins. The remaining labour is minimal, as in less than a day to finish the set. As soon as the tool turns up we are all good to assemble.

im sure they will make a few extra but you may have to wait

No Probs, I'll keep my eye on this thread and please PM me if possible if there is a set for me. I will transfer the funds strait away.

I've been actively watching and posting on this thread from day one I didn't pay a deposit as I thought we where waiting for responces for construction turn around times Fatz are all orders been taken already or can we now place orders and pay a holding deposit?.

Hey guys, I have had a buyer pull out on AUS300. If anyone wants to buy his order you will need to pay $197.50 deposit.

Drop me a PM, first in first served...

DSTROY has got these, was first in with the PM by roughly two hours.

There is already a second run in the pipeline that will be much smoother as tooling etc will already be in place. There is enough material to make another 30 arms but need to get the first batch out the door first.

    • 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 😂
    • 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.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
