I used ARP flywheel bolts on my RB25 and they were fine. The packet they came in said they were for a 3S-GTE (toyota 4 cylinder) but they worked perfectly for me. Exactly what bolts were you using? A rebuild is better than losing your feet.

and yeah dude im super thankful nothing actually came off completely while driving/dynoing.....could have been devastating!

Hey man I couldn't get tomei throttle coat from anywhere ....apparently tomei don't supply an MSDS (Meterial Safety Data Sheet) when they ship the product outside of japan so a lot of countries won't

As a target for you to aim for, my GT-RS makes 5psi at 2000rpm. However, I have a very trick exhaust manifold and run an external gate with the internal wastegate welded shut.

I also have tomei poncams in my RB25, though still run the standard lower runners with a plenum top similar in principle to a plazmaman.

I also have this custom bad boy I scored going on so should also help a tad with better spool ....

Looks like an eBay stainless one.

I personally wouldn't use it. Stock is fine and won't crack.

It's definitely not an eBay manifold I've seen a few of them (they are puss) and the quality of this one is that of a professional. Not to mention I can't find any other manifolds bar one in japan that have the runner configuration of this particular one.... (three at back of motor)

make sure you strengthen/gusset it where you can...especially if your exhaust system isn't supported properly....a lot of weight hangs off it.... and they crack and warp.

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By Duncan · Posted

      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.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.

      boost source Size Garrett gt28 gen2

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
