Hey Guys, My car seems to idle fine (albeit a little high, but not concerned) but my car is not really running as well as I thought it would. If revved up, and the throttle is let go, the car will stall. Boost gauge gets to around 3psi, and no more (vacuum leak?). The car is an auto, has a blitz BOV and t3/t4 hybrid turbo with FMIC. Is it that I just haven't retuned the car? Or should it run slightly better anyway?

Not really a trick question. I am doing a conversion in my car and while I now have the car running and all, I have to sort out any vacuum leaks. And if there are actually vacuum lines in the trans that I dont have hoses running too that really going to stuff me up. But If it is all electronic then I do not need to worry about them to much. So I guess I wanna know if there are 'normal' vacuum lines like the ones that running around your engine and intake manifold that I need to connect up...

Just out of interest...

Can anyone tell me the colours for the stock water temp and oil pressure gauge wires. I am wiring up some gauges for my car and thought since those wires are there and not being used I may as well make some use of them rather than run new wiring.... Unless of course this isnt possible.

That is mad as. I love the look

I recon the turbo is stuffed lol... not making boost. Could be the(internal) wastegate.

Slow, sluggish... a JB Camira could flog this car ATM! lol

I will check all these things after work guys and let ya know, thanks I dont have the z32 AFM plugged in, I removed it once i pulled out my emanage. I have a fuel gauge on the fuel line too. Here is a photo of my reg for ref: http://c1.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images0...d29b4ad66a0.jpg

Excellent, will do. It did take a small amount of time to find idle when I first had it running. So, it may have adjusted a small amount, but not a full reset.

Nah, I havent reset the ECU yet... how do you do that? That may be a half smart thing to do as it came off a halfcut... never now what the original owner was running... I have a couple of things to adjust around the place. Thanks for the AFM. I may have also found another AFM (r33 1) cheap, so if I can grab that, that would be good. Yeah, the VS is only like 100kg heavier, but the RB engine is lighter, so the car should be fairly balanced out with a 33 now.

Yes, I have a gates timing belt, brand spanker. I may go with the 4.11s then. Cheaper too

LOL, so do VLs... seems to work for them. Don't be rude. Its a match made in heaven. Yeah, I had given some thought to the Diff, but I am not the first to venture the way of the 25 in a VS and the last guy I knew to do it, tested the car at first with the 3.08 and it pulled alright once it got going. 4.11 is standard for R33 yeah? If I can get 4.39.1 for a commodore the shorter gearing the better right?

Hi Guys, I have just transplanted the 25 into my VS commodore and got her driving yesterday. And it has no balls at all... I think a Starfire may be able to take me off the line. I have not done my diff yet, so it is still 3.08 which I know is very low, but the 4.11s will be in soon, but I think it should still have a bit more guts than what it has at he moment. It is running very smoothly on all 6 cylinders, the fuel may be a little stale (4 months). It idles nicely. It isn't in Limp mode and will rev all day. I have a FMIC, GReddy Intake plenum, 044 and adjustable Fuel Reg and T3/T4 Hybrid (POS, but no leaks), while these may attribute to the cause of problems, I would not have thought it be as bad as is. I have turned my fuel reg down to a point where is seems to be between running rich or lean. I have my Z32 MAF removed and a stanard AFM plugged in. I would have though the computer would have compensated and adjusted for the new AIR and FUEL???? I had an eManage Ultimate, but have that off, as I want the thing running normally first before I get into the computer side of things. What else could I look at?? Plugs? Injectors? Any sugestions.

There is a red one roaming around near Hallam

Did you ever find one of these as I need one also... (Sorry for bringing up an old thread)

I had an emanage ultimate, but took it out to get the thing running right first.

Hey guys, Been on the forum for a while.... haven't really posted before. I have put an Rb25det into my VS Calais and it is stuck in limp mode. It is probably a fault in the wiring, but is there anything that I should look for before I get out my test light? I have had the computer tested as well as the AFM.

Hey guys, I am chasing a RB26 cam gear cover. It can be scratched or bare metal or anything. It needs to be an original tin cover not a plastic clear one. Please post here or PM me or email me [email protected]

Still have the cover? Can you offer a lower price???

Do you have gaskits for these? I am keen to buy.
