not at the moment cubes.

I will see how power delivery is coming on. I need to change the timing belt soon anyway so I will atl east get an exhaust cam gear then.

The turbo seems to spool earlier and earlier every time I drive it. almost as if it needs to bed in.

I am starting to think I would really lke a 3lt bottom end.

im running the stage 3 rb25 hiflow from aaron on my rb25 and it spools quiet early i know im gettin 16psi around 3500rpm lacks the mid range atm but from 5800rpm-7000rpm its animal..maybe stock computer doesnt like the bigger turbo?

Definitely doesn't like the highflow, rich and retard would explain you lack of midrange. Fuel pump and injectors could also explain why its an animal after 5.8k (lean out) if your still using the stock items.

walbro intank pump but stock injectors and fuel reg! yeh i really need fc,z32,injectors and tune!

is this the max oversize rb25 turbo for the rb25 engine?

Hey Phill. Yeah i'd think this would be the max oversize lowrb is talking about. I've just installed

one of the max oversize ones on my R33. Booked in for a retune in 3 weeks (as soon as i could).

Also will be changing from walbro to a 040, S15 injectors and Z32 AFM. Will let you know how it

goes if your interested. Also you work at Ford in Epping. Supprised i havent spotted you yet.

l0wrd what power u making at the wheels without the ecu?

on milanco dyno it made 279rwhp@12psi with stock turbo and standard coils

its got highflow and splitfire coils now oh boy did those coils fix ALOT of problems lol

im going to use the max oversize rb25 highflow the 260kw rated one, with custom injectors and power fc also z32 on 18psi. What power will i be looking at?

I have booked some dyno time on Wednesday as well. I only have an hour on the dyno so it will not be a complete tune. I will just be tuning the stock ECU at WOT and compensating for the GTR injectors. Mine is not the stage 3 max oversize turbo it is the straight rb25 hiflow.

So, is the change in the oil feed necessary when switching from RB20 - RB25 turbo?

I had mine changed a while back (running a std R33 turbo at the moment on my RB20), and the workshop claimed that it all bolted straight up fine, no modifications required at all?

Or is it solely to get more oil flow to the turbo?

You have to modify it for the Slide hi-flo because it is journal and not ball bearing. The bearings need more oil and if you don't do it right you'll cook them.

I have just gotten a bit further to getting some results.

I have just put in my GTR injectors and remapped the ecu to suit the bigger injectors and added fuel just for testing.

It is now spooling up quite a bit faster and I have set it to 14psi. it reaches full boost by around 4200rpm and feels very strong.

Cant wait to tune it tomorrow. it looks like it is going to be a good combination and may end up being quite streetable

    • I have done smoke test and can’t see any leak on high or low side.   checked pump and fluid can flow through. Removed the high pressure from steering and did smoke test and same on low side, no leak.   puzzled. Thinking why if it was all ok it suddenly went as car was off road for a year. Don’t want to disassemble pump yet as i can see fluid / air( compressor) can flow through with no issues
    • Which manifold mate? Meanwhile......Mark is wondering how bonnet vents would look on the NC 🤣
    • Actually,  just remembered there should be info in the threads (somewhere) about swapping to a manual steering rack and deleting power steering all together. 
    • Also had a look at the Nissan JP website looks like the 400r has a slightly shorter ratio than than the regular V37 3.133 VS 2.937 which from a guy who has driven both 3.69 vs 4.11 ratios in the S15 is bugger all. Seems that the AUTO Z runs the same ratio as the 400R but can't find any info as to if its an open or LSD? More often than not the auto LSD is open
    • Do not replace the power steering lines with this stuff. If it's anything like the Chase Bays stuff it will leak and be worse than stock. The reason why the reservoir is on the LH/passenger side of the car is because that's just where the reservoir was most convenient to fit. Don't overthink this stuff. The intake/cold side of the engine is pretty busy on these cars. And again, the hardpipe is designed to be a janky power steering cooler. In theory you can replace it with a real power steering cooler but that's really only for track use where boiling the fluid is a distinct possibility. Start with the low pressure lines feeding the pump from the reservoir. Make sure there isn't a bunch of junk in the reservoir filter. Be careful to not get ATF all over the engine bay. I hate dealing with ATF spills, you can clean it up and the slightest crevice will still release more oil that can still drip over time. You also want to inspect for leaks before you make a mess and can't tell what happened. Most likely you have a leak somewhere that is allowing fluid out and air in. Failing that it's allowing air in but not fluid out. Only place I can really see that happening is on the low pressure side because the pump will pull a slight vacuum to draw fluid in. Everything after the pump is high pressure or lower pressure, approaching atmospheric by the time it returns to the reservoir.
