I'm about to boost my n/a 34. Intercooler etc is sorted and fab work.

Q1. Do rb25 turbos and rb20 turbos use the same oil lines ? Because I have a set of speedflow braided oil feed and return lines an I want to know if they will bolt straight into rb25 turbos.

Q2. How would an rb20/25 turbo go if I get it rebuilt with a billet wheel and high flowed with a kinugawa adj actuator ?

Q3. Cost vs cost, which is better ? ^ that or going straight out and buying a kinugawa TD06 20G ?

The plan is to only run around 10psi as the n/a motors have higher compression values then the 25det neos. To pair with this, I'm just going to run the factory low mount manifold with a 2.5" twin entry dump, greddy type FV BOV and drift boost tee.

What's my best option ? Cheers guys. Kinugawa TD06 or rebuilt rb20 or 25 turbo with billet wheel and kinugawa actuator ?

Not much. Picked up a GREDDY FV BOV, permaseal gaskets, factory turbo manifold, twin entry dump and boost tee for $180 and I already had speedflow braided oil feed and return lines.

Looking at $400 for a return flow cooler with piping, $1k for a nistune install and tune then I'm looking for an op6 turbo or something similar.

You running factory non-det injectors and fuel pump?

If you're buying injectors and a fuel pump I'd sugest going straight for E85. its perfect for the higher comp motor and you will make more power on that small turbo

    • Need to see other side of PCB in that area...ie; I don't see any thru-hole mounting, just soldered vias (smd zeners in SOT23 have 3 legs but only 2 are used, as reflected by PCB tracks)
    • 4 to 5 is fine. It will be slow, but that's better than blowing turbos. I don't have a PS pump idle up solenoid on my car, because... I think when we put the Neo in we retained my R32 lines. But.... From inspecton of the R34 vacuum hose diagram, you can see that the solenoid needs to be connected to the turbo inlet as source of clean air) and the plenum (as source of vacuum - which is the place for the air to flow to to cause the idle to increase). So 3 to 1 is VERY WRONG. 3 should go to either the turbo inlet, or the plenum. Follow the other hose from the PS solenoid and if it goes to the plenum, then your 3 goes to 2 2 would also serve as a bleed port for a boost solenoid.
    • Pull them out and pull more apart. You can't do shit with them still bolted to the floor of the car.
    • Yes it is. ZD1 is on the other side of the board. Where ZD1 is marked is clearly opposite a 2 pin device. Our 3 pin device here is not a ZD.
    • Alright, a little update on this... I called Fulcrum, who used to be the distributor in Australia. No Bueno, they don't service them anymore.  Called shock works, who don't service them but offered to dyno the shocks for performance, and suggested DNA in Sydney might service them.  Called DNA, who also do not service them and basically said they try to steer customers away from tein for this exact reason these days- there is just no support for them anymore apparently.  Both SW and DNA said they are a not necessarily a bad product, but they just don't service the brand or know anyone who does service the brand anymore.  So... I could keep calling around but at this point I think I'll probably just spring for the shockworks product, unless anyone here knows anything.  Cheers 🍻
