hey there sau,

On christmas eve recently installed a RB20 turbo onto my 96' Series II R33 (rb25det). I noticed there was a extra line coming off the compressor side of the turbo connected to the aculator hose which my old turbo did not have. I'm just wondering what to do with this line coming off the turbo (breather like hose). The turbocharger is installed and iam waiting on a elbow that connects to my FMIC piping so i can complete my installation. I disconnected the line from the aculator to the breather like nipple on the compressor side of the turbo and connected the aculator hose to the T piece running from my oem boost solenoid. Will upload some pictures if needed

Best regards chris :thanks:

that nipple is for the wastegate actuator.

hey man thanks for your help. Strange because i didnt remember my 25 turbo being like that when i pulled it off, so what will connect to to the other side of the T piece when i pull the wastegate actuator line off?

Thanks again dude

well you just lost any value the car had left.

you can get 25 turbos for what, 150 odd.

putting a 20 turbo onto a 25, you've just lost over a grand on resale IMO as whoever buys it is getting a car that's worse than factory.

You're assuming everyone knows what they are looking at.

I predict something like this.

Car advertised.

Knowledgeable person checks it out.

Knowledgeable person LOLS and then leaves.

Nub checks it out.

Nub takes it for test drive and drops a load in his jocks case he has previously only driven a Camry.

Nub happily hands over the readies not having a clue that it's got a smaller turbo.

Nub crashes the car 4 weeks later so is never the wiser.

Nub advertises the parted out wreck on SAU.

Nub sells "RB25" turbo only to have the buyer spaz out when they find out it's an RB20 turbo.

The circle of life is complete.

Nub claims insurance

Nub is told the car is modified and insurance is no longer valid.

Nub is innocently f**ked over.

The circle of life is complete.

Fixed.

Thats because on the rb25 instead of having the nipple on the turbo its on your intercooler piping so just block one of the nipples off and use either the one on your piping or the turbo to connect to the actuator.

hey there man,

so after i have connected the actuator to the nipple coming off the turbo your saying block one side of the T piece off that isnt going to be used, hence the bottom one that i currently have connected to the actuator?

leave the standard actuator setup and run that to the actuator like you did originally and block the hose on the comp housing

Hey there jonno,

Fixed.

Insurers can only void the claim if it contributed to the accident. Eg you put a 1000hp supercharged v8 in your skyline and you tbone someone at a traffic light because you are a tard, unless the engine caused the accident (it didnt) they can't void your claim.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By MBS206 · Posted

      When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      By Rezz · Posted

      Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.

      If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
