Hey all

Any one got tips on what they learnt from removing engine parts to get to the turbo any help full tips hints

can you pass them my way,

blow my oil rings on the turbo FUN FUN

THanks

mate start by taking all the hoses, intercooler pipes off and vacuum lines then you can see the thing then take ya exhaust off then oil water lines then unbolt ya flang and walla ya got a turbo out. you got it easy i tell ya know ya should try doing it in a rb26 dam....

good chance you'll have to replace some bolts,they're old.

can of WD40 helps. not just 1 type of spanner,use open end,ring,socket spanners and also a socket set with

some extension bars may help.

i found i needed like 2 different spaners just to work 1 bolt from the dump-turbo.

its like a puzzle,can only go together 1 way so you cant really stuff it up.

goodluck

One tip if you have the stock dump pipe; unbolt the dump pipe from the front pipe and leave the dump pipe connected to the turbo. Then remove the turbo and dump together as one part and unbolt the dump from the turbo out of the car. Just seemed to make life easier instead of fumbling around undoing the nuts at the back of the dump.

;) Thanks all for the tips :D

i now have the turbo out and now to replace it. :)

is there any thing i should replace on the motor that are easyer to replace now that i have the turbo out

thanks once again for your input champs :)

** what do people think of vg30 turbo**

or what other turbo that good to put on my rb20

not looking to of the range just pulling 200kw for a year or so then a Rb25 conv will be done

I'm running an rb25 nylon wheel turbo on my 20 @ just under 1bar, starts spooling around 2000rpm'ish.. full boost by 3600ish, thats with cam gears also.

Great midrange with basically fark all lag! pulls hard enough to around ~6500-6800rpm.

Great upgrade for a direct, no stuffing around, bolt on.

    • This sounds like a perfect excuse to install a Haltech R3.
    • I do believe from context he is talking about a S0/S1 R33 RB25 with associated ECU and Wiring for that, and a manual gearbox into a R34 N/A Auto. I don't have the knowledge of all the pinouts and such but my gut feeling from doing my own conversion is to use as much of the R33 stuff that you can. The "car" wiring is quite seperate from the "Engine" wiring when all things are considered. The only things to truly consider 99% of the time is the cluster, reverse lights and potentially disabling the 'not in P/N' immobilizer circuit.
    • A realistic expectattion of how long it has to last also comes down to.... when do you think you will be banned from registering and driving old petrol powered shitters? It's 27 years since that thing was built. It probably rusted out 15 years ago. It was probably repaired and looked OK for another 10. If you do a similarish bodge job now, or perhaps slightly better with some actual rust conversion and glassing, then.... get another 10-15 years out of it, after which you'll only be permitted by the CCP to drive electric cars manufactured in their Shenzen zone anyway. 
    • Let me assume that the concern over a manual ECU is that the NeoDET that you have was an auto and has an auto ECU. That ECU will not be a problem, but you WILL have to Nistune it. And you would have to Nistune it even if you had a manual ECU, because the turbo ECUs will shit the bed if they do not have all the things that they were told they have to have, to be happy. The big one being the TCS CU, which you won't have in your car. Anyway, with an auto ECU (which I have running my originally auto NeoDET in an R32) Nistune allows you to put in a Stagea image which doesn't panic about the absent TCS, and allows you to override a whle bunch of other annoyances that would otherwise see the check engine light on 100% of the time. Also, you can't wind up the power very far on the stock NeoDET ECUs without Nistune, because the boost sensor gets in the way. Nistune allows you to push that problem much further up the dial. Do you even have the boost sensor with the engine? Without it, you are SOL and will need an aftermarket ECU (or to find a sensor somewhere, god knows where). I can't tell you what the wiring loom differences are in a 34. But what Duncan said above needs to be considered. When you say "loom", does that include the transmission loom? Because you will need to swap out the auto tranny loom for the equivalent manual loom, and get rid of the neutral/park start interlock (basically hot wire it).
    • I have had the r3c in for years now, maybe close to 7 years and it has never missed a beat, anyone can drive it. Super easy to drive around town, the hotter it gets does get a little hard but it holds the power easy as
