Help With My Rb25 Na+T Project

Ok so pretty much I have an r33 s1 with an rb25de and I'm going for a fairly stealthy look so mostly factory bits, but since I'm new to turbos and what not I was wondering if anyone could explain to me a few things ( also I tried using the search but nothing I found was of use).

Firstly which lines on the turbo are water and which one is oil (already has the oil drain pipe) and where do they go to?

Secondly is it worth getting an aftermarket bov? I've read that the standard are a bit dodgy. And if aftermarket what is better between plumback and vent to atmosphere

And last thing for now I just want some recommendations for what has worked well for others, spark plugs, panel filters, fuel pumps and wide band sensors.Thanks, nathan

Try here:

Loads of information and most of your questions answered.

Also, be prepared for everyone to tell you to "just buy a GTST"

If your turbo has the oil drain fitted, the oil feed is directly opposite it on the other side, ie. top of the turbo when it's mounted in the engine bay. (provided it's a stocker)

There is a bung on the side of the block for the water and oil feed, you know which is which by what runs out when you remove them. The water return and oil return on most NA engines isn't there, bit of info in that^ thread about the returns.

Stock BOV in good condition is fine, don't go atmo unless you're running aftermarket engine management.

Upgrade your plugs and coils, again read the thread for types, gaps etc.

Stock panel filter and airbox will work with a custom pipe from the airbox to the turbo inlet, or get a GTST airbox.

Fuel pump will need upgrading, again in the thread.

Wide band sensor? For what?

Hope that helps. thumbsup.gif

      Old Son, did you re-use the Holden ABS in the new shell or try a different module?

      Another little story of weird shit happening

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yeah, nah. I had the actuator rod off it today. The arm will not move at all. Neither out, nor in. Yeah, you'd think so, but I've been thinking about that. Even when the actuator rod fell all the way off at the beginning of this saga, it would build more boost and faster in lower gears than it would in higher gears, and you'd think that that was the opposite of what should happen. But I strongly suspect that there is a thing with the gearing getting the revs to rise faster, that there must be some transient effect with the gas flow rate rising quickly, that you don't get with the more steady state case of the higher gears. Keep in mind - the gate is not shut in either of my weirdnesses. So things are not "normal". We normally think about a turbo spooling up (below the wastegate target) with the gate shut. I have all sorts of mental models running now where the gate is a little bit open, and having it stuck open allowing gas out while it should be going through the turbine has all sorts of weird effects (in these mental models). I'm thinking in the higher gears, the ex mani pressure builds to the point where enough gases spill out the wastegate to just prevent the pressure rising much more at all, or just creeping up, all the whole the revs are increasing and getting closer to the point where a gear shift becomes necessary.

      Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up

      Does anyone know ow what these two plugs are for and if they should be unplugged? Just put the dash back together and can't remember if these were plugged in before or unplugged! (Blue and white plugs) 🤦🏽‍♂️

      Looking for a part number for this part here

      By dbm7 · Posted

      Did some FASTing ...got the impression that the actual part# was a moot point ; seems all of these hardlines for coolant are discontinued/NLA... like, I take it you're after the hardline that bolts onto to the manifold...that's NLA according to amayama & nengun .... ...just to clear up some confusion, they typically mounted the AAC valve to the intake manifold somewhere near a coolant passage, so the body of the valve heats up & holds it open when engine's up to temp - no coolant flows through the valve, it's a mechanical, thermal connection.
