Well just last night my car blew the front lower turbo coolant return hose(the small lower one on the front of the engine) and decided it would over heat on me but i caught it in time and i threw the clutch in and the car stalled completly as i rolled off the road.

The engine bay was covered in coolant but i was lucky and caught it early enough not to send the gauge to the red.

now we filled it back up with coolant and cleaned it off and the car runs fine until about 5 minutes after it has warmed up fully.

After the 5 or so minutes the car seems like the timing goes way off and sounds like a damn Tractor and full boost comes at 4500 instead of 3300.

Anyone able to give me some good ideas as to what it might be.

Thanks

Once you loose coolant the guage wont read right as there is no coolant for the sender to measure. You have possibly overheated it enough to blow the head gasket. Tolerances change once warm so it might run fine until it heats up but then leaks after that. Try doing a compression test and a CO2 test on the cooling system to be sure.

Hope im wrong

everything was good

just blew the fifth coil pack.

in addition i had 601 and 602 coils

they looked near the same but the 602's sucked

    • See my post here If you put the Haltech in, you won't have to worry about any of that. And, in case you're worrying about my lack of credentials in doing your exact swap, I put a Neo in an R32. There has never been a stock boost solenoid near my car and the Neo's ECU has never cared. Nor should it, because it is electronically impossible for it to care.
    • That's 100% wrong. Did you wire in the boost sensor? If you did not, then that is 101% your answer. Neo ECUs do suck a bit.
    • Hello, I'm trying to make this thread basically the thread with all the answers to common questions regarding specifically the RB20 DE NEO + T engine, that comes in the R34. Answers will and only should be provided by those who have done this conversion or actually have some relevant real life experience please. Please feel free to ask questions in the comments if you have any so other members can answer. I feel like this thread is really needed, especially with more Americans buying (unknowingly going to regret it too) rb20 neo r34s. My first question being - What do you guys use for tuning? I have purchased a haltech elite 2500 Plug and play kit for the rb25det NEO because the ecu plug is the same, but I am unsure if any of the pins would need to be repined to match. Second question that I see asked very often - After this conversion, did you install the boost solenoid/ actuator? I see many people doing a + T setup on their rb20 NEOs while running stock RB25DET NEO ECUs with no tune. I am wondering how they are going about doing that and consistently abusing the car because many of these people have had these untuned setups running for a very long time. That was my original plan, but my engine cuts out at 5 psi of boost using the stock ecu with no tune and no boost solenoid/actuator.
