im using an xf throttle body on a subzero plenum in a rb25/30.

PROBLEM:i need to wire up the tps and am having some trouble

i have been doin some research on how this will work but can some please make this crystal for me.

these are the questions i need answered

1- is the rb30 tps the easiest way to make the xf tb work with rb25?? if not what is??

2- does the slot in the rb30 tps fit straight into xf tb??? because the rb25 tps definately will not.

3- does the rb30 tps have the exact same plug as the corresponding end of the rb25 series 2 harness?? ie will the rb30 tps clip straight into the rb25 harness???

if this can be clarified that would be very appreciated

my questions werent really answered

im using xf tb coz im using a subzero plenum which is set up for that tb. and all my pipe works already done in 3" and its all perfect, i cant go back from here only forward..

so do you guys have answers or only criticism?

i have searched far and wide and have a rough idea but dont have definate answers for my questions.

Look on calaisturbo.com theres a massive thread on the XF TB installation and problems, like 30 pages massive, thats the best advice I can give you. They are mainly using rb30s but should be able to help you out.

i only asked as a 10 times better solution is a Infinity throttle body, as the tps is a wire in affair and has niceties such as temperature controlled throttle plate (cold start extra opening etc) etc and they are cheap too.

    • I'm actually not sure - I think it was "Stealth Performance" (It really is near impossible to find a FEMALE 1/8BSPT to 1/8NPT male at ALL) but having the thing leveraged on a 90 degree angle on a small aluminium fitting is not too smart. Also in not too smart, I've drilled out the center of the broken fitting so there's maybe 0.00001mm of thread to bite into, so yeah. I may have to get it drilled/tapped/plugged entirely. Given I could conceivably tap a thread/adapter/pressure line in any point in the oil system I suppose it's feasible to run a line to the Nissan Sensor to keep the dash working. Do these exist in AN fittings and the like? Like an AN fitting that has a NPT (or other?) thread as well for putting a sensor in?
    • I would agree.  There will be an amount of boost you could run safely with an otherwise factory system, but it would be low enough to not be worth the cost.  And if you are reliving your 20s, you know a 'little bit' was never enough. Personally, if I didn't want to spend the money, then stick with NA bolt-ons, and maybe a tune.
    • Fuark, at least the motor survived. What brand was the fitting that snapped?
    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
    • Measure voltage at the starter solenoid terminal when the key is at start and it has clicked. If it is really low, then the suspicion falls on the ignition switch (contacts or wiring thereof) as causing a voltage drop instead of sending enough volts to throw the solenoid all the way to engage the starter itself. If it is a decent voltage, then the suspicion is on the solenoid. Might have s horted coil, or might hva dirty contacts. Rip the starter off, dismantle, clean up contacts and inspect winding. It might not be possible to see if there is a short in the winding though. I have a spare starter here that I could measure the resistance of the coil, as a guide to about what it should be, if you need a comparison. <parts hoarder>No you cannot have it.</parts hoarder>
