[ozdaz]

Also this turbo is brand new all fittings an it a replacement for an 01 WRX apparently from what I could find??

TBO TD05 - HW

Does anyone know if it's any good an should I try swapping it for something to fit my cat??

Cheers

I know folk put TD05's on Skylines. Check the forced induction thread.

Suppose it would depend on the rear housing, flange and inlet pipes on your 33.

Sorry cant help much....

[zebra]

Looks like a china turbo. and lots of f**king about to get a Subaru specific flang to mate up to the t3 flange on an RB

[ozdaz]

What about the BOV would that somehow replace the stock one I'm using an is there any point, I can't see a brand NMR on it but it's in new condition.

Also could I canablize the turbo actuator for mine or best to just sell it to a WRX owner.

There is No need for you to replace the stock BOV you already have.

Skylines use a Plumb back setup where the BOV releases the pressurized air back into the system via the BOV return pipe which lets the air return back into the intake pipe, between the Airflow Meter and the turbo where it will be used.

This air has been measured by the Airflow Meter which tells the ECU how much air and the ECU then allows a suitable amount of Fuel to go with it.

The BOV you ask about, is an Atmospheric BOV, meaning that it will release the Air outside of the Engine.

Doing this, the ECU will have allocated so much fuel to match the measured air, but that air will no longer be in the system so there will be too much fuel. This is notorious for causing the engine to stall in Gearchange and clutch in situations.

If you get an ECU that runs a Manifold Pressure Sensor instead of an Airflow Meter, it won't be a problem and you can use any old BOV you like.

Other downsides to an Atmo BOV is they draw unwanted attention from the Police as they create excessive noise and also the fact that oily vapours are being released into the air instead of being burnt off in the engine.

That and the Tosser/ Wank Factor.

Sell it and use the Funds for stuff you need.

Edit* it looks like an HKS SSQV BOV or a fake one.

Those wide rims that come with the car aren't that bad the spokes are grey enamel an look ok with a bit of shine not to much rash, still have not idea how to clean under the car steering rack etc it's to low at the front to get up on ramps, anyone know a trick.

Some guy down the street have me a pair of BMW racing leather seats,

Well on BMW rails but easy to swap over , I think?

Right price anyway.

Cheers guys, hope you don't mind the running commentary ,

[ozdaz]

On, thanks mate, it a show off BOV , I really want to go the sleeper way, no unwanted noise unless it's contributing to considerable power.

Thx, can go in the box with the turbo.

[Got a Pulsar]

To clean underneath, Jack it up and use axle stands or a Big Fat Paver etc under each wheel.

[ozdaz]

Just a quick stupid question as I'm still waiting on my workshop manual,

Changing sparkplugs , are they under the splitfire coils? also I brought a set of Bosch P38-6

FR 7KPP 33U+

Bosch

Platinum plus

Are these plug any good as there the best they had where I went.

Cheers

BCPR7ES or go the 6 if you just drive around town and don't thrash it very often.

If you sit in traffic a lot then go with the 6 because they are less prone to fouling than the colder 7's

[Got a Pulsar]

Yes. Undo the loom plug going to a coil, unbolt the 2 little bolts (on diagonal corners) of the coil. Pull the coil out. Sparkplug is there.

Platinum is overpriced and unnecessary and can actually have a weaker spark than coppers...

$30 for six NGK BKR6EYA Coppers or BCPR6ES Coppers.
These should be pregapped to 0.8mm. If you get them with 11 at the end, they are pregapped to 1.1mm.

The smaller the gap, the less likely the boosted air will extinguish the spark.

Most if not all of the answers to your questions ie. sparkplugs, BOVs etc are available in the Forced Induction, Tutorials / DIY / FAQ and General Maintenance sections as all these things have been asked and covered many times over...

Not having a dig but the search bar works wonders with queries. I use it all the time.

[Manuel Kasko]

Beat you to it Rob
Nerr nerr

[Got a Pulsar]

Mine is a much more comprehensive answer.

[ozdaz]

I got these plugs from supercheap I got a 2000$ gift card from insurance when the house got robbed so I get what ever I need from there that's why I got em, but if experience says don't use em, I'll put them away as spares.

I just found a shit load of Victorian paperwork in the glovebox I couldn't open it before because of the gauges .

There are 2 Dyno tune workshop receipt for a tune saying

1) dated June 2 2012

Before tune....

Torque 519 Nm Torque 382 LBS/FT

Power (KW) 156 Power (HP) 209

Speed 119kph

After tune

Torque 589 Nm Torque 434 LBS/FT

Power (KW) 219. Power (hp) 293

Speed 146kph

2) dated August 9 2012

Torque 598 Nm Torque 441 LBS/FT

Power 216KW Power 289 HP

Speed 142kmh

So I'm going to make some phone calls tomorrow an find out what's been done as when I brought it if this woman she didn't know anything much about it, she got it for money her ex owed her.

Now I know the ex's name an number an his tuners name an number.

Cheers Daryl

I've been using the iPhone app it's not as well setup as the website but point taken sorry.

Daryl

[Got a Pulsar]

Like I said, Not having a go and I / we are always happy to help but yeah, most of this I know as a results of searching for the answers to my own queries.

[ozdaz]

Ok the skyline has been Dyno run at ultimate, is putting out 164.6RWKW@154KPH, 257N.m@148kph

9psi boost

Has bigger garrett hj300?? Turbo

And everything's already there to get min 230+RWKW with a aftermarket ecu an a safe tune.

So ill shut up now, I'm happy it's a solid engine all the aftermarket stuff is there down to a 3in exhaust system.

Thanks for your help guys.

[Anfanee]

good buy! So boost controller and tune for 230+KW?

[ozdaz]

An a haltech$$$ or similar but could be worse least I don't have to reflow or replace the turbo

[Anfanee]

Still you have done well. Good to know it's all sitting there ready to go.

DId they say anything about the ECU?
