Thanx Packy. & No I am not putting it together myself.

I'm farming out different parts of the job to different speciallists :rant:

CMSdrifter is doing the remove & refit

Moyle engines in Bunbury ( a client of mine) engine strip & reassemble , bore & head porting,

Performance Mods "O" ringed the block

The stall converter is at Allfast

The turb is at Per4manz

SST install Wolf and tune the lot

with Dsturbd & I overseeing the whole thing!

It was supposed to save me some :bling: ...I dont know...but it is keeping me busy :)

MMMMmmmmm 3000rpm Hi Stall arived today :wassup:

Stator was left the same , but Vane angle was changed from +5 degrees to -20 degrees , with the tourque multiplication up from 2.1 to 2.6!

*FREE Bundy can to the person who can explain this to ME!*

Todd....You just want to beat me again :headspin:

  • 2 weeks later...

It's getting there now :(

My new engine is together......yay ( I got a wooly :)) & they are just bolting on the ancillary's.

Hopefully , it will go back in the hole this weekend ( or early next week ) so I can trailer the car to Perth for the computer install :wassup:

just gotta fit the new fuel pump by then.........

I'm excited Big Kev!

*Note: for those RB25ers that want to use an RB30 water pump , it Does fit , but, you have to drill & tap 1 hole.(the stock pump hole is 10mm offset :) )

It's the top hole directly under the intake cam wheel *)

Update , the engine and trans are back where they are supposed to be! YAY

Still have to bolt on alot of accessories , loom , air cond , cooler piping etc ( Go hard CMS drifter :D) but fingers crossed it will be tonite.

My turbo has returned from its 2nd rebuild in as many months thanx to the mysterious number 5 spark plug just catching the back of the exhaust wheel as it siad goodbye to the engine! On the upside I remembered to take pics of the To4e ehaust wheel , 54T comp wheel & new 12psi actuator :burnout:

I also have my new fuel pump to go in the tank. It's a Walbro Gss341 out of the states . I'll fit that before the final tune :)

*note : RB25det thermostat number is 21200-42L06 (76.5 degrees)*

I'm so excited now , I'm about ready to Pop My Cookies..... :wassup:

It LIVES!!!!

My beloved 4 door is back on the road ;) Busy running it in at the moment , only 400kms to go (read Friday!)

The Wolf is in & working a treat , the Hi Stall in a freaky experience tho :headspin: especially at the moment.With a 3000rpm lock up & a 4000rpm rev limit whilst breaking it in , the converter is constantly flaring! & there is a definate knack to making the box change cogs.After 600kms I am getting the hang of it , accelerate briskly til it locks up , then back off gently to the required speed & the converter will stay locked :)

I've learnt 2 things this week , 1) when the alternator bolt that holds the main wire on comes off! the car will only do 12kms max on battery power alone DOH!

2) where the timing belt runs round the crank there is a spacer & a Shaped washer , & if that shaped washer is put on the wrong way! , it shaves slivers off the timing belt!!! DOH! (I will try to get pics of this for future reference)

But after all that........I'm Back :D

My timing belt is being fixed "Right Now" :)

Ready to be Leant on Tommorow ;)

Below is an exploded veiw that shows my timing belt problem...hope it helps someone else :P

Washer 13021F on the crank MUST bell towards the main crank pulley , or it shaves bits of ya belt!

730 out of 1000kms :headspin:

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
