The washer bottle wont really fit in front of the fuse box, the 3" cooler pipe is decieving in that photo lol, the washer bottle used to be zip tied there and I couldnt really mount it there properly. I was going to mount it under the front and have the washer cap sitting at one of the cooler pipe holes, but it was a bit to hard to do. Does the job where it is, until it melts through from all that heat lol

Yeah, Ive been thinking about spraying the coolant bottle black and just leaving a strip so you can see the level, but havent been bothered yet. Because It's a daily its not easy to justify taking it off the road for little things like that. Think I do have another power steering Reserviour that I might be able to do something with. Ideally I'd like an aftermarket one if I could find one

looks nice and clean.

That intercooler looks like its not finished, or something doesnt quite look right about it, but it looks good custom fit in there

That is my oil cooler.

Here is a pic of the intercooler.

I bought the oil cooler from ARE coolers in Queensland for $350.00 and used a plastic air diverter panel that was broken and used it as a template for a a mate to bend up some aluminium to shape without bonnet lock holes (because racecar) then welded the cooler to the new air diverter plate and mounted the oil filter to the underside of the air diverter for easy oil filter access and cooling.

No only stage 1 with - 9 Turbo. Blown the stock Turbo and screwed one of the cylinder.

Ah ok, so hence the engine build, haha!

How do you find the setup?

I have a Stage 1 with -7's and is nice for the street.

    • 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.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
