Wtborrow - Rb25 Standard Actuator And Air Box


Recommended Posts

Got reported to the EPA today, and though its not for a little while yet (letter is gonna be mailed to me) just gonna chase up some parts that i need

item 1 - stock RB25 actuator in good working condition. i'll need to borrow this for a few days and will return it asap after my inspection. dont want to buy as im just gonna revert to the cars current state post inspection.

item 2 - airbox w filter. dont need the snorkle as my airbox was lent to a user on here who then went awol with it. prob wont need this but safe to have anyway

please post in here, pm or sms on 0405736235

cheers

did they actually ping you for different actuator fitted or do you want to run std boost ?

if you have non-std actuatotor you could simply wire the gate open to make it run basically no boost

will epa pick up on that? Pettett picked up on the rerouted boost lines. just rekon its safer looking stock. will be swapped back out when i clear.

charles, maroondah hwy ringwood.

thanks for the replies guys. i'll get in touch when i get the letter

Niroj. Got actuator but it's still on the stock turbo. We can remove it for you if you like

PM me if you're selling stock turbo, interested in grabbing it off you.

yeah the vac lines is a dead obvious give away specially if they are brigth coloured vac lines etc

if its a std looking actuatgor and its not shiny and clean then you should be fine

ie if it looks clean it means youve been fiddling with it, cover it in oil and make it look dirty

i dont think they would be pick differetn actuator spring rate, how woudl they check it ? other than visual

the boost lines are the stock looking black rubber. easier to just go std for now

the nipple on rb20 actuator (i assume that's what you have Niroj) is in a different spot to rb25 one..

you'd be STIFF if you got done for that

hmm didnt know that

Sorry grant. I keep my stock parts in case of EPA. Don't like hunting stuff everytime I get done haha

Fair enough, worth asking anyway.

Lol harsh. I've had about 4-5 epas and about the same number of defects

GEEZZ!!! crazy boy...now for your sake i hope you dont get any troubles...but pretty sure looking at your car cops are forced to pull you over :) coz its so hot :)

    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
