need to find out what kind of flange is needed for the dump pipe on the gloria. Everyones pretty confident it would be the 5-stud oval shape thats so common, but best way to find out is get a gasket from Nissan. but they said its going to take 3 weeks from japan. R33 turbo has 5 bolt oval type? would they have local stock of that you reckon?

R33 is 6 bolt, unsure of VQ turbos. Scotty would know

fixed.

best we can do is assume its the same as stagea, but you never really know till you see it. (or is nissan FAST would bring up a picture of the gasket/turbo)

Have you got any pics off the net? it's been a while since I saw the back of the turbo, but I thought the flange was the same as the stagea. The dump is very different.

hmmmmm

^ that looks Y34-ish. below link might be Y33

Wow that's actually an oval... R33 is a 6 bolt and it's more of a bean shape, comes in a bit in the middle...

Wonder if this is 5 bolt purely so it is accessible? Does the dump curve down pretty sharply, making a 6th bolt on the bottom not possible?

inb4 custom made $100 gasket required. Is yours actually leaking or you're just looking to freshen up certain parts?

I have gaskets in stock, and stainless flanges. You found someone else to do it?

but we're just assuming the shape? once i get the gasket it should confirm the shape. just saves time on having it off. you're going to have to make the dump regardless of whether its the same as stagea, non?

So 12 months and 3 RS Turbos later finally feel the pain of the glass subi 5 speed.

Limiter launch on a box with almost 300,000kms on it which was also from a car which was previously stolen and thrashed and had copped plenty of lower RPM launches isn't really as glass as everyone makes them out to be though. Smashed on Friday night driving again Sunday night. $50 replacement box, try doing that with a Nissan :P

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
