as detailed as possible please ^^ i've always wanted to see a complete rebuild

Unless your specifically concerned with an RB25DET motor, grabbing an old motor thats shit itself from the wreckers and gettings its manual is the best way to go.

Thats all we do in automotive at tafe. Get old motors, tear them down, rebuild then to get a pass there must be X amount of oil Pressure and water running through it.....Fun times and not too hard either!!

how long is that course in tafe? is it full time? if it is a once a week kinda thing then I'm seriously thinking of taking it

Although Ive learnt the majority of my knowhow through my dad (replacing clutches, engines etc) I did it for two years just out of personal interest. Its the exact course that you have to do to become a mechanic.

We basically ranged from the basic shit like oil changes, compression tests, taking wheels off, doing allignments blah blah blah, to engine re-builds, tappet adjustments (head work), taking apart suspension systems, diagonising problems etc and abit of Electrical work

hahahhaha infact some of the guys wired one of the commodores up so that when you put your foot on the brake all the lights come on and the horn goes off.

I even made a fuel line for a car had to get all the correct bends, with allot of Oxy torch work etc was good.

Im not 100% sure how good every tafe is but I did mine at Brookevale tafe (local) which was cool, they have an old dyno that you can put your car on etc. They'll supply you with overalls and steel capped boots if you dont have them aswell so yeah its not too bad to do.

/End boring rant.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
