duely noted thanks mate.

Next few questions are in regards to the stock vac lines, firstly there are 2 lines running under the plenum around the back of the head which the first one runs into both the actuators at the other just vents into the piping from the plump backs is this a feed for the front diff breather or not?

second on the plenum side of the other line it t`s off into the bottom of the plenum then both lines are open which from memory is were both sides of the stock boost solonoid used to go yeah? Since the solonoid is now removed am i right in saying i can just bypass these and run a new line over to the actuators? Would like to do this as i plan of fitting a ebc sometime soon down the track.

Cheers in advance

Basically the green hose is the source from the plenum T' ed , one side goes to the solenoid the other to the actuators, the other blue side from the solenoid is the pressure that is bled off that goes back to the intake....this has nothing to do with the diff, the diff hose goes to atmo

To bypass the solenoid, what i did was take the source from the plenum connect it to the blue line(hard pipe) at "9" and where it comes out at "14" connect it to the actuators or ebc, and disconnect seal off everything else

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
