The stock plenum on the neo apparantly has different injectors to previous RB25s. They are a skinny plastic injector, and the biggest about are 440 odd cc from HKS.

this is from a mag article (HPI) of a Neo buildup. But probably wouldnt be a hassel if you dont intend tuning very hard, or decide to get a different plenum?

Some bits that I know, R34GTT RB25DET makes 206 kw standard, turbo is Hitachi copy of Garrett and looks the same as a late model R33, has a ceramic turbine and a plastic compressor wheel. (Still ball bearing hi flow easily for 230 rwkw). Have much more movement in the VVT than I have seen on R33's. Compression ratio is 9 to 1. ECU is much more sophisticated, upgrading to a Power FC is the go. Although I haven't measured them, the valves look to be the same size. Injectors are skinny plastic things, seem to flow around the same as R33 ones (370 cc's), so OK to around 230 rwkw.

Hope that helps

R33's have steel compressor wheels, right? How high can you wind up the boost on one of these turbo's with nylon compressors?

Heh did you want a reliable figure? Disconnect the hose to the actuator and see if you don't.

    • I am probably calling this too early but I think I found what part of my problem is. I have a couple of dents that are fairly close to each other and I tried to fix them individually. Recently I put one larger coat across all the dents and sanded it and for the first time ever it's all even except for the edge where the bare metal is, I just need to put some putty there. I'm ordering some better longer blocks that are more flexible. Other good news is that the other repairs on my panel are flat even with the guidecoat. It's these 2 dents which are an absolute c*nt l lol.
    • Murray will have better input, but I'd be going with less filler, and aimed at the low spots mainly, and hence won't need as much sanding, which then means get the guide coat on earlier. That's how I'd do it, BUT, I'm not a pro, I'm a DIY hack who will then get the shits halfway through, and have one spot awesomely repaired, and the other spots look like a 3 year old was left unsupervised with workshop tools...
    • Where is the most common place to locate it? Disappointing that Garrett won’t make a fitting for it since they know everyone will use it
    • A HICAS fault really should not cause the engine to go into limp mode. These cars are so old that the systems barely talk to one another. The thump might be the lockoff solenoid valve for the HICAS (the safety valve) getting closed, to lock the rear wheels "straight". I say "straight", because when my HICAS used to shit itself before I took off and nuked it from orbit, it would lock up with the rear wheels wildy non-straight and you'd need 45° of steering wheel to drive straight. Take off and nuke it from orbit. First step is to pull the smaller of the two plugs out of the HICAS CU. See if it stops misbehaving. You can also (whilst leaving it plugged in) try to get the HICAS CU into diagnostic mode by doing the pedal dance, or by connecting a CONSULT capable diagnostic reader into the car and seeing what it has to say for itself. Can't do either of these with it unplugged though. 1st gen HICAS is a ballache. I would do a complete delete. I did do a complete delete.
