That would be fantastic Rubz :).

Only thing is right now, Its really hit and miss problem, and does it at the weirdest of times, I really wish it'd just sh!t its dacks so I can replace it and be done with it :P

Ummm, I'll get back to you Rubz, whats it worth?

Cheers man, I'll see what they are brand new but Rubz PM me what your chasing?

This is ofcourse, if the cas is on its way out - Pretty sure you can't test them either if the problem is intermittent (sp) which is a pain.

what exactly is not clearing???????????

i thought Dale said it would clear with no problems...................... :P

AFAIK, they were bolt in items on the RB25's, but they were also designed for RB25's in R33's not R32's. I suspect that adrian will be using the RB20 mounts (the metal engine side bracket) on his RB25 because they run the angled engine mount unlike the R33 that have the flat horizontal mounts. If he swapped the cross member over to a R33 one then that theory goes out the window.

Speaking of RB20 mounts, have you still got those mounts Craig?

so if i high mount it will i need a custom cross over pipe? will it fit with the stock one in place?

Just get one of those greddy copy intakes, you can pick them up for around $300 now and they aren;t as bad as they were when they first came out. The one i ahve is as good as an actual greddy manifold (well the pictures i have seen of them anyway)

Sounds just like an AFM proble

I had similar symptoms till I replaced my AFM's with some reconnect ones. Pete at PLMS can recondition the AFM's if it turns out to be them..

-D

I just left a thing on your FB but I'll post here,

Ummm, every now and then my car will drop idle and bounce round for a few seconds and then idle and drive fine, then other times i'll be cruising at whatever speed/RPM and it'll do the same similar thing just drop like all power etc for a few seconds and then act and drive fine.

In my old VLCT, I experianced the same thing with my RB30ET... Could be AFM's too :\

How much boost is your rig running?

hey champ iam running 15psi flat no tapering on this tune stock is around 6psi on xr6t's mine is prolly one of the lowest powered modified units around the s.a streets i gotta keep it useable due to it being a family wagon :P wench has to drive it daily :rofl:

mind u i did put my name down to go to the boostworx dyno day but as u guys would know it got postponed(any one know when this will now be?) mines no dyno queen tho cause i got the hi stall and that soaks up a few rwkw but high numbers dont mean much to me iam after the lowest number 1/4 mile is where i like to play.

any of u blokes head to the strip regually?

btw that lala time is very respectable champ well done is urs 4wd?

im gonna have another crack at fitting this ass of a thing. i really wanna stay low mount..

worst comes to worst ill get 6boost to make a manifold that fits it!

but thats once i have tried everything..

Had it out Friday night for a hills cruise actually. I'd be keen for a meet up in the hills, we don't really do any big meet ups anymore because of the heat from the cops, but more than happy to hit the hills in a smallish group.

the low mount 6boost mount manifold will NOT allow u to use your crossover pipe as the runners will be too high (higher than the rocker covers) being a tuned length design, and u will defiantly have to machine the engine mounts a little to clear the compressor housing and have a custom intake and dump pipe made up

as Dale said u will need either a Greddy style plenum or any front facing plenum or a modified standard one, which will be better as u will use less intercooler piping

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
