I bought these 3 weeks ago to assist eliminating tuning and defect issues. But the problems have been fixed without fitting these parts. And now I need funds to help pay the bill.

And the manifold was new when i bought it. It is a greddy replica. I'm trying to make this obvious because the guy tried to sell it to me as a genuine item. Anyway.. I have spent about 10 hours polishing the runners in the manifold because I wasn't happy with the casting finish. I never tried to port it bigger, I just took enough off to make the surfaces smooth.

Throttle body sold

Manifold dropped SOLD

The thottle body is uses but in excelent condition. And does not reqire an adaptor for the manifold below.

Asking $600 ono for both

Sorry if this is a silly question but is this is for RB25DET?

I bought these together so I didn't think of seperate prices. But since the manifold is $350, I will sell the throttle body for $250

Now dropping price to $550 for both.

Pics tomorrow maybe. I will try to borrow a camera.

;) polished inside :P

Polished internal runners cause fuel to form droplets which can result in idling issues. It is best to leave the inside of runners rough to prevent this from happening.

How can that be when the fuel is injected at the end of the runners right at the inlet face of the head. Fuel would not even touch the runners. All I have done is stop some turbulance buy removing shitty casting finishes. Had the casting been neat like the rest of the manifold I would not have cared.

Maybe it happenes with other manifolds but not this one.

    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
    • You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
