You can also buy them directly from Otaku Garage in Australia. Thats where I got mine from. Really nice Billet CNC ones.

I did it on a neo head in a 32. What do you want to know? Use the above adapter plate and it works fine.

Awesome, Thanks! got any tips or tricks for someone about to do it?

I bought one of these, and it looks like its not going to seal. like the mounting holes for the R33 side are in the wrong spot.

The hole pattern on the R33 side just needs to be moved down a touch, to get the hole inside the sealing area. I've contacted them, not sure if I'll have any luck. Was thinking of filling over the bolt head with some grey silicone gasket to seal  it.

You can't just move a hole bro, then it won't line up to the thread.

Good luck with it!

Was just commenting on what I think Otaku garage need to change to fix this problem. My possible solution was to bolt up the adaptor, then cover the head of the offending bolt with silicone gasket, hoping to give the factory gasket something to seal against.

I'm not holding my breath that Otaku garage is going to do anything to fix the issue.

 

Here is one that used to be sold on ebay, you can see the positioning of the holes is different, and would make the bolt clear of the edge of the valve/gasket.

Mate I have made heaps of these, that work, and I can tell you that one in the picture would have the holes in the same spot. The difference is the hole diameter would be smaller to not cause the issue you have. I think that guy used Phillips screws to hold it. When I made mi e I used countersunk Allen head bolts  and for that bolt I machined the head down so it didn't cause that issue, with a smaller countersink diameter of course. The issue is so obvious I can't believe they make and sell them as is.

I contacted them, and they say they've sold 100's of them without any issues. I'm not happy with it, and would like to return it. But there is no alternative to purchase. You wouldn't happen to have any for sale?

    • Please ignore I found the right way of installing it thanks
    • There are advantages, and disadvantages to remapping the factory.   The factory runs billions of different maps, to account for sooooo many variables, especially when you bring in things like constantly variable cams etc. By remapping all those maps appropriately, you can get the car to drive so damn nicely, and very much so like it does from the factory. This means it can utilise a LOT of weird things in the maps, to alter how it drives in situations like cruise on a freeway, and how that will get your fuel economy right down.   I haven't seen an aftermarket ECU that truly has THAT MANY adjustable parameters. EG, the VAG ECUs are somewhere around 2,000 different tables for it to work out what to do at any one point in time. So for a vehicle being daily driven etc, I see this as a great advantage, but it does mean spending a bit more time, and with a tuner who really knows that ECU.   On the flip side, an aftermarket ECU, in something like a weekender, or a proper race car, torque based tuning IMO doesn't make that much sense. In those scenarios you're not out there hunting down stuff like "the best way to minimise fuel usage at minor power so that we can go from 8L/100km to 7.3L/100km. You're more worried about it being ready to make as much freaking power as possible when you step back on the loud pedal as you come out of turn 2, not waiting the extra 100ms for all the cams to adjust etc. So in this scenario, realistically you tune the motor to make power, based on the load. People will then play with things like throttle response, and drive by wire mapping to get it more "driveable".   Funnily enough, I was watching something Finnegans Garage, and he has a huge blown Hemi in a 9 second 1955 Chev that is road registered. To make it more driveable on the road recently, they started testing blocking up the intake with kids footballs, to effectively reduce air flow when they're on the road, and make the throttle less touchy and more driveable. Plus some other weird shit the yankee aftermarket ECUs do. Made me think of Kinks R34...
    • I do this, I also don't get the joke  
    • Return flow cooler will be killing you I reckon. You can certainly push more through a low mount setup but they're good numbers for a stock looking engine bay.  Mine made 345rwkw (hub) at 22psi on 98 with a "highflow" on a stock manifold but it's a long way from a normal high flow or standard engine. I used one of those Turbosmart IWG-75's and it was great with the Motec running closed loop boost with pressure being applied to both sides of the diaphragm. 
    • Hey man do you have pic of adaptor plate by any chance I need to match up the bolt holes as my gearbox adaptor plate ones are way off the only bolts of starter motor are matching thanks
