Guys how renowned are the rb25det from getting oil leaks?

I appear to be leaking a few drops every time i pull up after driving for a while and appears to be from the rear seal..

Any ideas what cost would be involved in getting this fixed. I just havnt the skill/muscle to drop the box and do it myself.

regards,

Darren

Ps: the motor was only rebuilt (stock) about 2000 kms ago, would a warranty cover this?

Obviously it depends on what the warranty covers... but I'd say it should be, unless you're over the kms or time.

Rear main seal could be around $500ish I had in my head... Mine's been dropping a little oil too so I'm trying to plan to have it changed in the next month or so.

man,

For about $8 bucks I should give this a go. Gotta get a hoist and a couple of stongs mates over...

Ps: I have have sent sms to the guy who repaired my motor to see if covered by waranty and he said to bring it pass and he will consider/check depending on mods done since. (only coils) so maybe i will be in luck....?

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
