Browsing through the Spool Website I found a few High volume sumps for RB25 and RB30, does anyone have more info on them, how big they actually are and if there's any internal baffling? the site doesnt give too much away and only has two photos at the moment. Ive emailed them but still awaiting a reply. http://www.spoolimports.com/content/RB30an...VolumeSumps.asp

The sumps use the std pickup – they are no lower than the OEM sump so there are no clearance problems. They are just a bigger capacity sump with modified and enlarged sides. They fit all R32 GTS RB20, R33 GTST RB25 and VL RB30 etc.

I wonder if they're worth it for the $420?

Not sure I am a fan of the weld quality around the extension where it meets the sump.

For not a lot more you could get the Trust sump extension which includes a modified pickup, or spend $900 or so and get one of the ASR/High Energy straight replacement sumps.

I have one of these sumps.

It is exactly as pictured. Has trapdoors, baffling etc. The quality is amazing.

Very good for the money...

Only thing is when ordering mine, I was the only one to recieve this style sump. About half a dozen other people here just recieved the standard sump with a box welded on. I'm not sure why this happened, but I love it anyways.

Who is rob and what/where is sabbadin? Sounds like a raghead temple!

I just looked at the link and it shows photos of the doors and whatnot inside. Looks the goods! That sump with an accusump and you will have a bullet proof oiling system, or as close as it gets in a wetsump system.

      Dose is unaware just how much fun 145-150kw would be in a 2.5L NC MX5. It would be one of the most fun things to drive to ever grace SAU.

      R33 GTS25 NA - Stalling when vehicle is at operating temp

      By dbm7 · Posted

      Same thought crossed my mind ~ depends on how one connotes 'stalling'...ie; gets a rough/stumbling idle as it get warm until it stalls... or... idles ok and simply falls-over when it gets to temp... ...you can test the whole circuit with a couple of resistors ...unplug coolant temp sensor, bridge terminals with a 2K7 resistor (ECU will do cold start), or with engine warm bridge with a 330R resistor (ECU will consider engine to be at normal operating temp)...it's a quick way to check wiring integrity/ECU response when you don't have a multimeter handy ...

      They also make them with the motor mounted on the side

      Just be warned that that turbo will not be a direct re-fit to the car. The exhaust housing is, of course, in the same place. It has to be - it's bolted to the exhaust manifold. So the dump will fit up. But the centre housing is not as long, so the comp housing will move backwards. This will affect both the turbo inlet and the outlet. There is fab work that needs to be done. Yes. it has one, it should have one. Paper gasket.

      Exhaust silencers/varex exhausts

      By PotatoCake · Posted

      I only recently purchased the vehicle, it came with the flex setup but the current tune is e85 only, which is why im wanting to get the tune redone to enable a mixture.  First i need to get the exhaust redone tho. I was thinking of getting a varex muffler but it sems they dont fit well in the 33 (hang low because of the valve mechanism which sticks out on top) and generally dont sound good. So that leaves me with redoing the entire exhaust (more resonators and mufflers) so its not a menace when i come and go from home, and then have the aes dump valve somewhere along the line to really open it up. I was thinking of having it before the cat but after seeing how insanely loud it will be (on a vl turbo) im thinking of putting it more towards the rear of the car, after one of the resonators.
