Now THAT makes sense. Can anybody tell me, if I go to the Neo, would my current Apexi run it as I currently have the series 2 motor with the slightly different wiring to the series 1. (cam key is different also) and has the black plastic CAS cover. Although, if I save on the motor rebuild I would go with a new Vipec or similar anyway. That duel fuel idea has been on my mind for some time. Also, do I absolutely need much larger injectors ? To do a nice safe 300-320kws would 740's get me there on ethanol ?

generally it pays to go large as possible while being sensible and on a budget. ID1000's and siemens deka's are cheap as for example.

and true non neo will live with that power... but theres nothing like a tuned neo engine.. they simply rule with their higher CR and ability to rev hard :D

Your ecu and loom sadly wont be compatible

Is the neo redline higher, or are you just referring to the solid lifters & GTR rods that allow freer revving?

thought everyone decided the Neo turbo RB25 had the same 9.0:1 static CR and got it with smaller chambers and less plateau on the piston crowns .

A .

I thought the CR was same for all rb25's too. :S

Everyone is making me happy I chose a Neo for my car over a standard 25 haha.<br /><br />What's the average price (I know it's hard to generalise) for a decently built neo25/30? Ie forged and upgraded valve train etc

Well i saw Simons result years ago and chucked all the bolt on goodies on a stock and backed up with the same result, it kind of gets rid of the need for a built engine :P Spend the money on the right parts and enjoy! :yes:

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
