Hey Guys,

I have an older Tial wastegate and I am trying to find the gasget that goes between it and the manifold. Now I have been told it should have a raised beveled edge on it to help seal it but have been unable to find one can anyone help??? A workshop has been looking but so far have been unsuccesful at locating one and can only offer purchasing a new one.

As the wastegate works fine and I really don't want to have to buy a new wastegate if I don't have to.

Cheers

were you after that metal ring that goes into the end of wastegate or and actual gasket? if its the gasket im thinking of you can buy them from autobarn. turbosmart make 38mm sized ones, not sure bout other sizes tho.

well it bolts on to the manifold which is flat and has 4 bolt holes, so I am thinking there is suppose to be a gasget that stis between them and has a raised beveled edge to help seal it . I will take some photos later this week to expalin more if it helps

does the wastegate have the seat area machined out ???

as you can see the samll ring that inserts into the flange area between the gate and the manifold .. is this the bit you are missing?

try to speak with tial USA and see if can get that part seperate from them. as that ring seals the valve to the sides so it doesnt leak

yeah, no chance of goo working there

either have a replacement machined up on a lathe

OR

buy a new one from tial USA - or try Slide as he got my tial from japan and might be able to get the individual part

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!

      From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.

      Lock up the old for sale / wtb threads.

      That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.

      I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.

      If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
