Hi All,

Just looking for some help - engine is an RB25DET Series II...

I noticed tonight that when I open the throttle I get a click like a blown fuse from this thing...

Problem is I don't know what it is or what it does. It is situated at the front of the engine on the intake side right next to the thermostat.

Hoping you can shed some light here are the pics: Anybody know about it?

Thanks,

Or I could have been wondering why there was a plug that was not connected and why the car was not feeling normal.... Its pretty damn obvious when your under the bonnet and pull the throttle cable...

Got news for you lachlnw - this is a forum - believe it or not people use it to learn, others not naming names use it to express to the rest of us how much of a knob they are

I'll let the people decide which category you fall into.

jesus christ you need to get a girl friend . or a new one that you dont avoid enough to find stuff like this . seriously what were you trying to do when you discovered this?

Young people of today :laugh:

I Guess then, if youd mentioned the plug wasnt connected and the car wasnt running right in the OP, then people wouldnt have jumped on you about not worrying about it :worship:

Dont worry though, SAU is well known for the veteran members flaming the crap out of people all the time, you arent the 1st and wont be the last!

Just Chin up and ignore it. :(

    • Seems to be the case mate , still an OK price for a grey import.
    • I’m interested in the carbon diffuser fins and Toshiba MFD screen replacement if they’re still available.
    • @GTSBoy yeah i know it was not the "great" idea but it is and option...but i think i will stay on no BoV rather then trying to make it work with "half" this and that. But that GReddy FV2 is cool...i like that you can make it like stock if you want (and have/make the custom pipes) For other thanks! it was alot of information. But for the sound...a dont rly "like" both of them...specialy if they are loud...but if i "must" choose i would rather have little whooosh rather than sutututu with no BoV....BUT that is what is i gonna get. So for the all info i gather. In my case:  No BoV is not that bad cuz it is stock...and iam used to put N/clutch right after rpms are around 1000 so it should be ok...just need to avoid "big" drops. But i do not have the engine in the car so i do not really know how "bad" or good it is. But as i had that little test drive it looked ok. The atmo BoV should be worse car would dump to much fuel specialy between the shifts...so without proper tune/ECU i dont want that. BUT with that...car should drive ok with no problems right? (i do like there is less piping wih this solution) 🙂 
    • Usually an RB20 won't stay in closed loop idle anyway. The O2 sensor gets too cold, stops swinging.
    • They aren't, but it depends on what interests you about an R32-R34. If it's the front engine I6 turbo that tunes well with a manual transmission an E92 335i 6MT is so incredibly cheap. You can get a super clean one for 20-25k USD tops. Put an LSD in it, tune it, have fun with it. If it's the general idea of AWD + turbo and a manual transmission the 996 Turbo is absolutely much more expensive, it's less practical but it's also basically a complete track-ready car from the factory. At least the Mezger doesn't have heaps of oil control issues. And in the US the 996 Turbo and R33 GTR are roughly the same price these days. 996 maybe a bit more now that the hype has abated for old Skylines here.
