Hey guys, I'm half way through fitting a front mount and am wondering g what to do with the washer bottle set up in the front right corner. The piping will foul it. Do I mount it else where or ditch it?

Thats one of the reasons people tend to buy return flow coolers so it uses the stock pipes in the engine bay.

I did it becuase i went high mount and FFP.... Ill have to locate the washer bottle on the passenger side as the oil cooler has taken up the rest of the space where the washer bottle was....

next problem?

where to run the boost line? if thats what it is?

the stock pipe that feeds into the intake had a nipple but nothing on the new one.

where do i fit it?

do i put a barb into the silicone joiner from the cold side where it meets the stock intake pipe?

i know this a noob question but i gota learn some how

cheers

yes i saw ur post. the original nipple was on the cold side near the intake pipe.

thats why i asked.

so would it be better to move it to the hot side near the compressor outlet or just put ib back where the original was?

got it finished... yew!

next time i will spend the dollars on a proper r34 kit, there were endless issues with the piping.

i replaced all the silicone joiners that were supplied as they were all to short or the wrong angle.

car has never driven so nice, its amazing how much more response it has with the FMIC and 3" turbo back exhaust.

cheers boys

Why do all piping kits come in 3 piece only? Does anyone know of an RB25 kit that has the turbo to intercooler pipe included?

89CAL that is a very nice setup you have. Good well done :)

The hot side pipe that comes of the turbo compressor and fits onto the 'cooler, I understand that there is only one hot side pipe that goes half way.

So basically what I am after is a inter cooler piping kit that goes from throttle body to turbo. I am running a GT3037S

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
