Any chance that someone who's a member can show us the full article..

PLEASE!!.

I am member but sharing arctiles would put my account at risk. It is worth the $30 a year for an article every day.

They put one on a Galant VR4. It dropped off full boost a bit but this was probaly to size of the turbo was too small for that boost.

hehe b2barker

why dont you ask 'another member', to log on as a secret person, and then get them to post it :)

im sure that would work, and we would all be happy!

otherwise you could tell us, the rest

hehe sorry guys, just reminds me of skool...

when the 'smart kid' knows all the answers, yet hes too much of a prick to tell you :P

so dont worry b2 nobodys gonna tell on you, pinky promise!

hmm my car is still broke... i still havnt used the turbotech to 'boost' my car...

Please can someone post an install for an r33 rb25det!!!

I have been using the high boost solenoid mod until now, and was wondering if thats whats not letting me run the controller right???

Ive tried, but cant get the controller working right, and do not want to ruin anything

Please help me get my car running a bit more boost:)

Thanks

when installing on the R33 RB25DET do the following:

1. find the bronze/copper T piece that has 3 vacuum hoses attached to it one from the manifold, one to the solenoid, one to the turbo.

2. remove this T piece by twisting the crap out of the hoses till you have the 2 free hoses, one from the manifold, one to the turbo.. leave the T piece attached to the solenoid hose, you don't need this anymore..

3. plug the following:

vacuum hose coming from manifold -> bottom of unit

vacuum hose going to turbo -> side of unit

look at the picture!

Finished drawing it:

there you go.. that's all you need.. pressure comes from manifold, passes through bleed valve if the boost is enough, heads to the turbo (wastegate controller) and opens the wastegate to vent..

good luck..

Hey all,

I bought one of these little babies Friday last week, Mark had it to me by Tuesday. Excellent service, and it is as well made as all the other posts say it is.

Anyways, I bought some extra vacuum tube to fit it away from prying eyes in my R33, so i ended up ditching the stock 3" length of vacuum hose coming off the side of the inlet pipe (next to the airfilter).

I kept the T-piece and solenoid hose in place and fed another new section of vacuum hose to it, (from the other end of the Turbotech so it looks neater), so all that's visible is a vacuum hose running fron the inlet pipe, under my pod filter, and back up the other side to hook into the T-Piece.

Plumbed it all in and took her for a spin, and I was still hitting 5-6 psi (stock), so I wound the screw up a little bit and hey presto- Non-spiking 10 psi at about 2700 rpm.

As for the solenoid, I tried it plugged in and unplugged and didn't notice anything really different, so I left it inplugged.

Effectively my set up is exactly as shown in this link...

Someone's making a nice little bit of money..

Personally I prefer it out of the solenoid but I guess - whatever rocks your boat.. than again i'm only running 0.6Bar anyways.. where as the stock car runs about 0.66Bar.. but atleast it's spooled up by about 2,500 rpm..

had it up at about 0.75Bar but was finding the car would R&R..

Hey guys, still having a few issues with the tap........ive manage to get it to run w/o any spikes......but i dont think its working as its not raising any boost?running stock (reading from the factory gauge)???i'll post pics tommorow. By the way would the high boost mod have anything to do with this???

Just out of curiousity, +3.5 on the factory r33 boost gauge (where +7 is the max) would be how much boost in PSI????

Pull the controller apart and ensure the spring isn't caught on anything.

Mine has done this once resulting in no boost increase.

It actually occured because i backed off the controller then wound it back in, for some reason there was no tension on the spring as I could easily blow and suck through the in nozzle of the boost controller.

Obviously the IN is the nozzle that runs inline with the bolt adjuster thinga majig.

Cheers guys, just to make sure, when these rb25's spike, is it like a mad missing sort of noise that occurs?, cause i've wounded my boost down heaps so i get no spiking, but the other day when i turned it up a bit, second gear would run till the higher revs, where a missing/popping sound will occur....is this Spiking or something elsE?

Its definitely not a good sound:)

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
