Need to get oil and water lines for my highmount gt3082 on rb2530. As topic states, where is the best place to buy. Obviously there is a difference in quality out there in the kits I have come accross, ranging from about $80 up to nearly $400.

What have you guys used? tried searching cannot find answers.

Thanks

I'd go and buy good second hand steel turbo water lines and banjo bolts from an SR20DET . They use either a Garrett bush or ball bearing center section which is externally same dimensions as your turbo . You buy new copper crush washers and bend/cut the steel lines so that they get far enough away from the turbos heat to enable the use of rubber hose to plumb to the engines water inlet and outlet . I've used EFI fuel hose in the past because its hardy re inforced so more durable than carby low pressure stuff .

Unless you get them pre made and cost effectively I think braided lines for water to 110C and 14-16 pounds pressure is over kill and more expensive than it needs to be .

    • Order for the 2025 model R35 GT-R were accepted from 3rd March and 26th August the last order rolled off the production line at the Tochigi plant. Concerning the R35 GT-R replacement, current Nissan CEO Ivan Espinosa said "Nothing has been decided about the GT-R at this time, but we are well aware that everyone is waiting. The GT-R will evolve and reappear in the future. Please be patient until that day comes." Nissan has a lot of issues with management and finances so take Espinosa's words with a big grain of salt. From what discussions I've had and read about here in Japan, not a lot of people are confident about Nissan's future, let alone the next GT-R. 
    • Thanks. We getting some parts along too so he will be solving the speed issue like next week so i will let you know what he came up with.   
    • 21 is explicitly the coils detected as the issue. Is it guaranteed the actual issue? No. Just the ECU thinks it is. When you say rattling, describe it better, get an audio clip as best you can if possible.
    • Yea got me coppers. Bad news is I just put them in and the car still has the light and shakes. I also noticed I hear like rattling coming from the exhaust piping right under me. Does 21 also have a possibility of being O2 sensors?   So, coil packs are good, the harness is good, the MAF is working, and obviously the spark plugs just replaced and working.
    • Make sure you drop the GTT base tune back in, and set your injectors again, this will remove anything playing up with it you may have removed. Possibly lean there as it's normally a fast transient going THROUGH atmospheric pressure, and a turbo motor would then quickly go richer as boost builds. The only worry you MIGHT have is ignition timing, as the DE is higher compression than the DET from memory. But again, you're not in boost, so the DE motor will be a lot more forgiving at atmospheric.   Get Murray, Kinkstahs, and Johnny's input on tuning haltechs, those guys have played with tuning enough in the past to be able to help now you're past the trouble shooting stage of the MAP issue
