ok so ive got i f**ked head gasket. dont see a point in repairing for 2500 and still having a shitty bottom end. so ive decided to get another motor. with 55 000kms. wont say as to where im getting it done just yet...

the new rb25 will set me back 3500-3800 completely suplied and fitted does this sound right considering thats a full install and full clean of everything including the radiator. will still be using the same turbo thats in my car aswell as starter and water pump.

just wanted to know if this sounds any good or not as its a lot of money and have never had to do anything like this before

cheers Garth

Ditch the old water pump, does the "new" 25 come with a waranty? if so then that is a reasonable price

      thanks for the advice on the box... i was thinking the 6 speed was better for cruising on the highway but on closer inspection and comparison the Rb 5 speed box was not too different...  So the choice is going to be the RB25 box... if I can save up and find one at the right price

      Thanks Matt, yes that's what i am aiming for. Just going to apply the right voltage and grounds to the dash connector. Hence my search for these pins... any chance you know if these pins are in the same spot as the ones on the S15 Dash connector? as mentioned above on page 8?

      Yes, unfortunately that's the one. Signal was noisy to begin with; after driving once and looking back at the logs I saw pressure constantly swinging between 0-200psi, or staying at 0 randomly for a few seconds. There's a lot of good sensors that share the same look and feel, so don't presume they're all bad. I bought mine for 20$ off Amazon and I should have read the reviews prior, as it's clear they're junk.  I purchased a lowdollerr motorsports sensor.
