hey all im bout to buy a "hybrid" fmic 600x300x76. dose ne 1 know roughly what kind of price i will be looking at to get the piping made up for this? or has ne 1 had good bad experiances in adelaide with this?

also wanting to know what kind of boost increase i can do with the front mount, and what kind of power gains i will get?

i have a 1993 r32 gts-t m-spec with cat back exhaust and HKS pod. the boost is @ 12psi atm.

thanx guys.

a few guys on the site have got the hybrid coolers on their car and getting around the 170rwkw mark or more. with good tuning and full exhaust. with the stock turbo i wouldn't go past the 12psi for everyday driving, 14psi if you going down the strip. its the heat of the turbine blade spinning to fast where it actually mealts and stuffs up so. yeah. good luck with the cooler. on ebay you can get them for about 550.

i run 1 bar (14psi) of boost with cooler, exhurst, electronic boost controller...no idea about how much wk's its making...will take it to get dyno'd soon

OH make sure your fuel is all good...cos alot of those GTST fuel pumps are stuffed/ near stuffed. So when u boost it to 14psi on the dyno get them to check the fuel out.

you can pick up a hybrid 600x300x75mm for $700ish from justjap a sponser of this forum, www.powerdigger.com were selling the hybrid gts-t piping kit for $450ish or rolin imports (as you mentioned) here in Qld can get the same piping kit for around $600!!

Mate get it from the intercooler guy, he makes up the best looking best performing kits around for good $$ i just got mine yesterday and its the best ive seen, he is the most helpfun bloke i have met in the industry and will help you out with anything. 10 out of 10 for him, rollin is a bit overpriced but i got my rb20det half cut from them for ok price $2200

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.

      There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
