WTB - RB25DET Pipes

Hi Peeps,

Just chasing a few parts to get my vehicle back to a standard for roadworthy inspection, I have attached a couple of images of parts required. Maybe someone has these lying around after an upgrade.

Parts required - see attached images
1 x Water Tube Splitter Pipe - Location in image (Metal Tube Drivers Side Rear of the engine)
1 x Turbo Inlet Metal Tube Only
1 x Standard Turbo Exhaust Manifold - my current one has a big crack half way through right near the turbo flange area.

From my understanding with current items that would not pass inspection are the following as outlined in EPA document - Unroadworthy items list. http://www.epa.vic.gov.au/~/media/Publications/1031 4.pdf

1. Plenum Chamber
2. Aftermarket Throttle Body
3. BOV Atmospheric release
4. You can either have aftermarket intercooler or Pod filter - if you have both the Pod needs to be in Airbox
5. Dual Stage Boost Controller
6. Adjustable Fuel Pressure Regulator
7. Aftermarket Turbo that interferes with the standard emissions and is not an approved ADR replacement

Any info would be greatly appreciated - Luckily I have 90% of the parts to change over - just a few which were cut and re-purposed for the mods.

I may have this, but I need a better description - have a shit-load of pipes and fittings removed during a 25-30 build & have no idea which one you want. I may also have the intake metal pipe, but I cut something a while ago and it may have been that. Will have a look tonight, but if you get me a  better description (or drawing / photo) of the first fitting it would help.

Thanks Mate, its hard to explain that water splitter tube, I dont really know the exact name of it - there is an image at the top of the location of the metal water tube, its located at the driver side rear of the engine, and it is a metal tube roughly 25mm in diameter and it has 2 small metal tubes on each side of it which are roughly 10mm in diameter, so its a large tube which has 2 other smaller tubes coming off it. Its the only metal water tube on the drivers side at the rear of the engine that is 25mm in diameter and has 2 other smaller tubes coming from it. The tube is fixed to the side of the engine with a small piece of rubber water hose and 2 hose clamps then obviously another water hose attaches to it with the 2 other smaller water hoses. Wow hope that doesnt confuse you too much. Damn Nissan hah

So you are returning to stock for reg purposes and then putting the aftermarket stuff back on? If so, I can lend you the bits I have, exh mani, metal intake tube, I also have a stock turbo and exhaust system if required.

Hi Champ,

Yeah I was offered a stock manifold in Geelong for a very low cost, however I am still yet to collect the item. Thats correct just getting all the stock things back on so I can get it roadworthy passed and registration done again. Then it will be all changed over again. Currently the vehicle is getting a new coat of paint and I am hoping to paint it within the next 3 weeks. 90% of the body is complete, just need to finish the rear bar and door jams then into the booth. After paint I will take it back down to Trent at Chequered tuning to finish the last tune. Then it will be all swapped back to stock. So I am hoping to have it all ready within 5 weeks for RWC Where are you located mate?

Mate thats excellent, I will certainly contact you when the time comes. Absolute legend as for exhaust and turbo pretty sure thats all good mate. I did cut into my dump pipe because it was custom already I simply cut the stock flange off and fabbed on the piece to take the new flange.

I will also look after you for helping me out and machine up a custom billet part, badge, what ever you like got some pretty nasty designs.

Thanks again

Is this the coolant pipe?

Hi Mate, yeah thats the pipe, coolant splitter. if anyone has had to change this pipe working on a complete vehicle they will know how frustrating it is to change or even tighten a hose clamp. Nasty pipe that one. Mine has corroded and split right where the smaller tube joins to the larger ones. I was thinking to just fab something from ally tube and then anodize it. But the thought of just getting something already available was much easier.

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
