50cm?? Thats half a meter before.. Is there even half a meter of pipe from cooler to TB?

I'm sitting inside and haven't looked at it for a while, my judgement of distance is definitely off haha.

It's near enough to where the pipe comes through my cold air box.

You want it to be as close to the compressor housing of the turbo as possible. If your running actuator pressure you can also pop a nipple on the comp housing and run it straight from there to there.

Why is this, exactly? The only reason I can think of is to avoid overworking the turbo if your cooler is a restriction, but at such a measly boost level that I'm running I can hardly see that being of concern.

Actuator reaction.

If the surge is created by a minor overboost at those revs/throttle then moving the reference nipple will mean the actuator reacts quicker and can overcome the problem.

Thats assuming the surge is created by that specific issue.

Okay so the reply back from JJR is that all there dumps/front pipes are the same so mine was not a defective product.

No no What they are saying is, All my dump pipes are defective. You like you buy.

I might look into having that done then - would the turbo need to be removed to put a nipple on the outlet though? I would think this would only be for safety reasons to avoid metal shavings falling down to the compressor.

To make it simpler just get one welded on the cooler pipe as close to the turbo as possible.

Should work to the same effect mate.

Stao is it possibly you can produce these with a nipple on the cover from now on?

I was a little :( when I didnt find a reference nipple on mine but there were 2 casting marks indicating where it could be fitted.

^^this. I welded an 1/8 npt socket onto the underside of the pipe out of view then screwed a barb fitting in

cbf, lol. But yeah if (when) I next remove the turbo I'll have one put on the comp cover for sure.

Yes I have stock of the billet 20G but only in a 10cm T3 rear. I can sale you the core for $700 if you want, which you can run that in your current 8cm housing.

18G, and 25G plus 8cm turbine housings are still work in progress at this stage.

Ok , so what are the advantages of billet wheels compared to the ones on the one i have now? (just talking myself into it really, just seeing if i can justify the extra $$) the car that the turbo will be going on will be used mainly for track work so it will get a hefty work out!

Well if the comp wheel is made exactly the same to original caste then it makes no differences. lol

For our billet wheels we run a different sized hub with slightly taller inducer and blade curvature. All manufactures has their own wheel profiles, so there won't be an identical billet turbo result.

The currently 20G follows our SS hub and blade profile, that is engineered to produce the most Power with Least RPMs. So the car comes alive as soon as its on gas. You can see that worked extremely well refer to test result based on a SR20det None Vct motor, and no one has yet managed to get 200rwkws by 4000Rpms on same setup. Its going to be crazy responsive working with the Rb25det. I would expect the end result be similar to the SS1PU with more top end since working with proper manifold and external gate.

I reckon i might get a 8cm housing and one of these Billet 20G's and jam it on the 4AGZE Ke10 rolla i have here with some E85 in the mix..be epic on 30psi..lol

have a killer ex manifold here for one, be a shame to waste it..lol

cheers

This is a pretty good result from a high flowed Rb20det turbocharger bolted on to a stock rb20det motor internally gated. Green is 98 and red id E85 limited by fuel pump. Hopping to see around 250rwkws with fuel pump replaced.

For 4AGZE Ke10 rolla, Here's a result from a ATR28G2. Good chance cracking 300rwkws on 24psi on e85 :yes:

Just to ammend ur last post Tao, the red and green are e85 but hi and low boost. I will get an overlay of the 98 runs from before i converted it to ethanol

    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
