Almost completed my engine swap in my 33, just need to know what the following hoses connect to.. (RB25DET)

Do i even need the canister at the front? If someone could join the dots for me i'd really appreciate it.

Also, big black earth wire from near relay box, where do i bolt it on the motor?

Thanks

Hose goes from boost pipe (from I/C to throttle body) to solenoid. Another from solenoid to T. One side of T to bov return pipe other side to w/g actuator. There was a restrictor in there somewhere but I'll be b****d if I can remmeber in which part

  • 3 weeks later...

Sorry to dig up old thread, but can anybody tell me where the restrictor should be?

On mine, I have a 6mm line going from the intercooler pipe to the actuator, with a T piece in there that has a 4mm hose going to the bottom of the solenoid, then another 4mm hose from the top of the solenoid to the bov return pipe. My restrictor is in the 6mm hose going from the cooler pipe to the T piece.

I've noticed that it runs 0.3kg/cm2 (~4psi), rising to 0.38kg/cm2 (~5psi) at 4500rpm when the solenoid kicks in. I've disconnected both lines from the solenoid and joined them to test with, and when I do this it make 0.6kg/cm2 (~8psi), so I know it's not something like the gauge reading wrong and leaves me thinking the restrictor is in the wrong spot.

Am I right that I should move the restrictor to the 4mm line going from the T piece to the solenoid?

Jonno, it's a 25, and they do for the factory solenoid. Going to see if I can move it to the 4mm hose going to the solenoid tomorrow to see if it makes any difference. In my head it sounds like the right place for it.

iirc standard 25 setup (r33 25 anyway) has a single boost line from the elbow going into the solenoid, then one line to the actuator and the bleed line back to the intake, no need for restrictors anywhere

Yeah Jonno, both my old S1 R33 I had, and my S1 Stag (S2 R33 RB25DET) have run the same solenoid setup with the restrictor.

Bob, any chance you've found since your earlier post which hose your restrictor is in?

I know the restrictor does NOT go in the line to the bov return which just leaves 2 options and I am 90% sure that it goes in the line from the intercooler pipe. If you can get a look at a stock car that will confirm the plumbing and also there should be a band marked around the stock line to indicate the position of the restrictor.

    • Hi. This is just my curiosity because iam sure the tuner figure something out...but either way i want to ask. The "problem" is that the Nistune ECU (Stagea FW and RB25DET NEO from Stagea) sees many times the speed than the speedo does(he says the speedo show 120 km/h - correct speed and the ECU shows like 510km/h ) I told him that this car/tranny getting speed from rear diff. If iam not mistaken the RB25DET NEO "need" to see tranny speed sensor? (my tranny has the plug for it). So couple of "question" If he connects/wire the speed sensor to the tranny...are the signals gonna intervene and if...what if he disconnects the rear diff one and the speedo stops working? Or the "new" sensor from the tranny "take over" and will not going need the one from diff? As i said i know he figure/get that done...iam just curious to know what are the solutions 🙂 
    • Your IACV is set to idle too low. You need to adjust it via the screw Duncan mentioned. From memory it should be 650rpm with the valve electrics unplugged. What is it trying to idle at with the IACV plugged in?
    • Ahhh, I need the whole head unit. I definitely needed to roll back through and review your setup, ha ha! Neat setup they have going on. I just need a full double din head unit. But I want good and responsive. I might have to review what the likes of pioneer have out these days.
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
