so is it any good though? :) (getting a GT35/40R to sit under it)

 

wastegate doesn't sit too high does it? going on the RB31DET in the 32 so hopefully i can close the bonnet....

 

Anyone got any pics of what it looks like setup??

From the pic, the turbo will sit onto on the manifold. not under, which might make everything a tight sqeeze down there.

If u can get it cheap the it might be worth it, coz cast stuff like manifolds aint the best.

1. I agree with what Roy said about it being low mount. It HAS to because of the stud pattern.

2. How much research have you done to come to the conclusion x manifold is better than y manifold?? Please explain....

and there is more room now under the manifold due to the height on the new motor :)

Sorry abo0ut the stupid question, but how the HELL does a low mount manifold sit a turbo above it????

And equal length runnners and steampipe arn't the be all and end all of manifolds. Its more about how the pipes merge into each other, then into the turbo flange. If you dont know this manifold does go 3,2,1...

INASNT, the top mount is for the wastegate. Have a look at the two runners with the bolt direction different from the other four.

The two that are different go to the rear of the block.

Bl4cK32, have you had the inside de burred/tidied up? It may be worth ceramic coating or wrapping it before it goes on too. Looks like a vast improvement on the stock item, as the gasses are merged rather than slammed into eachother.

If it doesnt fit, just get a hump in the bonnet, or even a raised vent. Would serve a dual purpose that way.:)

Look where the flange on your manifold. When u bolt the manifold to the head the flange it facing up, so the turbo will bolt on to the flange making the turbo sit ontop of the manifold. Low mount means the turbo is still sitting down beside the head not high above the cam covers.

DOH, i didnt look at the pic that carefully :)

That manifold doesent look like it will make the turbo sit high enough up to cause any bonnet closing problems

Just arrived in Australia Steve :) but some work will be done to it (heat wrap or coating) the inside looks pretty damn smooth...

A nice hole in the bonnett for the wastegate eh:D

    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • 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)?
