Manuals are evil

No

Gladly, yours would no doubt pay a fair bit better than mine

Yes but it can be a shitty job

And slow ;)

No

well see about that uncle Natro

This

Only time an auto should be in a jap car is if its a 2 or 3 speed and used for racing.....

And this

Trannys are good - I love me some Trannys

FYP

Going to be keeping all the associated turbo parts off the 25 skyine incase s*it breaks

Suggestions a for turbos for the dirty? Don't know whether twin or single

Something that's 300 to 350kw max, more than that is fairly unusable without big $$$ tires and borderline too laggy for daily use.

A gt30 with a .82 rear will drive almost as nice as a stock turbo 25, just that it has 300kw instead.

I reckon if you go to the trouble of building a 30/25 then you should choke it up with a small turbo like a GT30.

To get the true benefit of the change I reckon a GT35 or larger is a must.

In saying that Ive never been in a 30/35 running a GT30 variant so not sure how it would drive

Inestment home or residence colin?

Still undecided yet. Its nearly 1k a week rental at the moment so it will be tough to let that go lol. Would still get decent rent if we lived there and rented a few rooms but we dont know yet.

Yeah Ants capt barrel roll is me so wanna get into another one

i had a 35 on mine, too much power for daily duties and enough power to make it about as reliable as a rotary. power came on hard at 3500-4000 and insta wheel spin on anything short of near new 255 semi slicks.

a GT30 with 0.82 would give near on stock turbo spool, but an extra 100kw, a 1.06 rear would tame it down from being so agressive onto boost, but obviously that comes with more lag.

GT30 size turbo is the SMALLEST you can go on the 3L without choking it.

check out the results AL from victoria got with his 3L with GT30, decent power/torque everywhere and the benefit of being able to keep it looking mostly stock if you wanted to, if i was to do my car again. thats the combo i would go for.

Guess mine will be interesting to steer then lol.

I'll have a look for those results. can never look at too many :-)

Congrats Col, I looked up 5 bed townhouses, I think I found the ad. Looks nice! If you are getting the stamp duty concession you need to live in it for 1 year with occupancy starting within one year, and renting out rooms counts as you not occupying it. Something to keep in mind!

these results. i believe the full specs were somewhere in a mountain long thread. but it was from memory it was running a 9:1 comp ratio with some minor head work.

Just realised that i haven't updated my results.

Officially the engine is now out flowing the turbo, but i will not change the combo for anything.

Below is my full tune as it stands now.

The car has been booked in for next week to get the following done:

- Change exhaust and see if any gains are made. Currently i have the more quiet exhaust fitted and would like to compare this result with the Apexi cannon exhaust system i have laying around.

- Play with my cam gears. I still have VVT active, but have modified the std gear to also be adjustable.

- Clean up the afr. Dips too low up in the higher rev range.

- Play with the boost settings, to come on harder on high boost.

- Most important: Find a pair of tyres that will hold traction on the dyno. So far i have tried 4 different pairs of tyres and all have lost traction on full boost at high rpm. I have tried: Hankook K104's, Bridgestone RE55s, Toyo T1R's and another pair of cheap ass tyres from another 33. Anyone know of a good pair of dyno tyres????

    • 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
