gains are soley in changing the spark plugs. so no1 has actually done this?

if you did it with an aftermarket turbo, where was that water feed from

a few people are hanging on this thread lol

Edited by jeffworld2

Its better to be safe than sorry, i personally prefer to confirm with someone that knows before just "giving it a go".

I have been using the dickie little thing that comes out of the thermostat housing (that used to go to the old throttle body) for a while now, use that i guess.

On a standard RB25DET the water feed for the turbo comes out of the heater pipe at the back of the motor on the drivers side, then travels through the inlet manifold then onto the turbo.

Ive just replaced my inlet manifold with a (fake) Greddy one and also hi-mounted my standard turbo (for clearance) so im now running the water feed directly from the heater pipe using -6 braided line and custom adaptor into the turbo

Hope this helps :nyaanyaa:

i recently fitted a greddy manifold to my r34, (still sorting out some minor idling issues) but on the r34 small coolant lines run fron thermostat area up to inlet manifold then along top of the inlet manifold then through aac valve then around the rear of the engine to the turbo. pretty basic what i did.just tose all the old unused coolant lines over your shoulder (ei, the ones that go to through the manifold, throttle body and aac valve) and run a new hose directly from the thermostat area to the hard small steel line that goes to the turbo. (the small stell line is located at the rear of the engine on drivers side.)

thanks

    • The 1000ccs are side feeds but they're not currently installed, had my old factory ones in for leak testing purposes, only decided on them because front facing plenums and good top feed rail kits are out of my budget at the moment, are they really that problematic? Had a set of yellow jackets that lasted me 5 years, no real issues, only replaced them chasing this misfire issue that ended up not being ignition related 😄  
    • Are those 1000cc side feeds? If so, that's part of your problem. I have 1480cc and they idle at stoich on 98RON, and all the way to E85. Also your coil packs.....
    • Update for the sake of closure   Ended up getting the intercooler piping all sorted, new plugs and yellow jacket coils, and she was idling mint until it warmed up while I was bleeding the cooling system. Found the misfire to be localised to cyl 3 by unplugging coilpacks, ran a compression test, that checked out, then decided to get a mate to check if that spark plug was firing out of the motor. Upon cranking it over, with the injectors disconnected, the car actually fired and ran on a couple cylinders and heaps of fuel came out the top of cyl 3 I'd say that injector's either spraying incorrectly or spraying far too much, which is fine as I'm planning on replacing them anyway I'm planning on making about 250kW on flex fuel, and have a set of 1000cc injectors from ozautosport, obviously overkill but I'm planning on building the motor and running more boost further down the line, do you reckon they'd be too big for a smooth idle on 98? Thanks for the replies gents, much appreciated
    • I'm confused. You said you want to "remove the clear coat from most panels" but it sounds like you are actually doing a full respray? Few random things to add -  If you chase the blistered paint with 120 grit, I can almost guarantee you'll chase it down to bare metal (that's fine). But if you paint the car from here, you'll have nice little indents where ever the blistered paint was. The new paint won't magically level out the low areas, you need to fill them. Which leads me to the main point I wanted to add, make sure the whole car is flat before you paint it. All those areas with blistered paint you sanded out, make sure to fill them and triple check they are flat with a block guide coat. I'd also check the whole car is flat with a large block and guide coat but yeah up to you if you want to go that far.
