Anyone? Offers will be considered.

Are the Hankook K104's nice and sticky? I need some new rears - 255 - 17"

Ahhh...

M3 without a thought. What about a Porsche Boxster? They're in that price range now..

Flash - refer to post 7.. wise words have been spoken..

Where is Hepburn one lane?

7yphon - Alot of oil feed problems could be nailed down to oil and it's filtration. Oil feed problems cause head failures, oil pump failures, bearing failures.. the list goes on.. In short - if you're running your car hard and you're skimping on oil and filter quality then as Rev said - it's going to get real expensive real quick. Cheap oil and filters are made for N/A lasers and excels, not turbo engines..

I still think its quite funny that these people will spend mega bucks getting the best oil (which they don't understand the properties of) but are happy to look into saving a few dollars on an oil filter... Fully sick bro...

Next time you drive down west coast highway, have a look at the mess people have made of the vacant block just South of the Marmion Angling Club.. What give them the right to use some one's building as a canvas? Why don't they just do it on a canvas instead? At least you could show it that way without upsetting people.. Simple - one of the reasons I moved out of Nollamara..

Further to the PM I sent you.. R33 CAS wiring: x x x x 1 2 3 4 R34CAS wiring: x x x x 4 3 2 1 Just reverse the CAS wiring and it'll work. As for the coil packs I'm not 100% sure what's happened.

What is the engine "knock"? Bottom or top of engine?

Pete - sure, everything you've said is great as long as he has a tuner in New Zealand that supports the PFC. No point him getting one if the tuner doesn't know how to use it. DRFT14 - let us know which way you go and how it ends up.

From my time up North on the mines I've learnt a few things that all serious bush basher 4wd's should have.. 1. Long range tanks - for when you get lost as there is a looooong time between fuel stops sometimes. That 400km wrong turn sucks when you know you have to backtrack. 2. Room for at least two spare tyres, if not more - you won't get a flat on the road, but on the rocky/gravel tracks you will as the sharp rocks will slash the sidewalls. 3. Room for plenty of water - nuff said. 4. The usual recovery gear - which AHG should outline for you. With this - a front mounted winch might be a bit extreme pricewise, so maybe a hand winch or something cheaper like it. Either way, not a bad idea if going it alone. As for driving, revs, momentum ect - it depends on the terrain and where you are. Think about weight, weight distribution ect when looking at a vehicle. You don't want to be doing 5000km+ in something that's massively overloaded for it's chassis/engine. Also, the more you put on a roof rack, the higher your center of gravity will be and in a 4wd, it's already up there... That's all I can think of for now..

Girls - stop the fighting. You're turning this guy's thread into a PFC v the world debate.. In short ANY ecu that will run an R33 rb25 with also run an R34 Neo rb25.... Choose what your tuner will support and be able to use.

You'd be able to do the mods yourself. Have a look at my thread on it. Reverse CAS wiring and find a plug to suit the VVT. If you look at the wiring diagrams in the R33 and R34 manuals, you'll find it's pretty straightforward..

Depends how much money you've got really...

Yup. Just some minor wiring mods and it'll work fine. I'm getting fairly good power and economy using a mines 33 ecu at the moment. Obviously this will improve once I get the AFC and ITC tuned to suit..

Thanks Nat. I'd sms'd Ryan to find out but got no reply..

I'd grab an R33 engine and chassis loom. It should be cheaper and will only require a small re-wire to the CAS and a new plug for the VCT. That is if your NEO engine didn't already come with an engine harness.

No - I'm not saying that as I have no experience in Link ECUs. What I'm saying is that I'm running a NEO on a stock R33 ECU with no issues. From that it could be inferred that any ECU that will run an R33 will run an NEO - as you have done.. The only issue I can see is that the plugs on the R33 and R34 ECUs are different so you could have some wiring issues there..

I'm not so sure you're right about the variable inlet cam timing. I'm running a NEO in my R33 using the stock R33 computer. The VCT in the R33s is run differently than in the R34s I think. While the R33 is more an on/off calibration, the R34 setup is suposedly variable. That said, it definitely works with the R33 computer running the R34 VCT and I believe that the difference you would get would be marginal. In the end it's just an oil solenoid. What I'd be looking for is an ecu that has the following: 1. Easy connectivity to the R34 loom 2. Well supported by your trusted tuner 3. Fits your budget

Perhaps more mis-understood than anything. He seems to have some experience with these cheap chinese turbos.. BUT - what we're after is someone who is using one on an RB25 and how they did it and how it went.. I do believe you get what you pay for, but sometimes old design, cheap stuff does work effectively if used with it's limitations in mind..

Are these sold yet?

What gear is typically used for an auto on the dyno?

1.1 ex housing on an SR is going to be laggy, no matter what brand turbo. On an RB25 it may respond differently.. Getting back onto the original topic - does anyone have a dyno printout or experience with one of these turbos on an RB25?
