I'm trying to put my car back to stock boost (7psi) but i'm having problems... if anyone has a stock skyline setup (no boost controller) can you post pics of the wastegate and the gold solinoid that has those 2 hoses running off of it? There's 2 hoses that come off of it and i think the turbo and wastegate hook up through an "F" fitting that hook up to the solinoid... can someone post pics of it? it's on the driver's left of the engine... I pluged all the hoses back up but dont think I did it right... I'm only boosting 4 psi. I tried checking my old rb25 pics but they're all too blurry or dont have a good shot of the lines... I just need to know what hoses go where. The reason i disconnected everything in the first place is because I got a Greddy Profec B Spec II and it had it's own solinoid but now I want to run stock again.

edit: there's 5 hoses... a hose coming from the recirculation pipe, one from the wastegate actuator, one from the turbo.... the actuator and turbo one goto this little "F" fitting and then the last inlet of the F fitting goes to the solinoid and there's 2 nipples on the solinoid... i'm confused what 3 hoses goto the F fitting and what 2 hoses go to the solinoid.

Here's some pics of what I need more pictures of.... or if someone could just tell me which hose goes where that would be great help!

it does a little bit... in this pic... do u know where the hoses are coming from and going to? I see that the little hose that's attached to the intake goes into the solinoid directly... is the turbo hose on top of the "F" fitting or on bottom?

I am really confused now...

What engine is that? And what car is it in, sorry for the newbie question but I've never seen one.... I've seen the engine bays of 32-33 GTS-T and GTR's and never seen that engine before, please enlighten :>)

RB25DET N1??? Just a guess?

it's an R34 RB25DET out of a SKyline GT-T... we dont really have any Skylines here in the USA so I did the next best thing and put the engine in an 89 240sx.

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
