I am after this part for my R34 as mine has a hole in it.

Let me know if you have one or know someone who does, and how much you want. Thanks.

Hey bud if your in Melbourne I might know someone that can make you a new one, I just burnt a hole though the same pipe in my R32 at a track day. Found a guy that will repair it, I just need to remove it from the car & take it to him.

Question for you...... How much was involved in removing this from your car? Did you remove it from under the car or did you take all turbo piping off and get it from the top?? I haven't had much of a look at it but its high on my 'to do list'.

I think he quoted me bout $60-80 with a new heat protection sleeve on it. (plus re-gassing), not sure if the price was for just the one pipe.

Cheers

Rob

Please scrounge in the bin if it's not already too late :(

Rob, not sure how hard it was to get the pipe off, the auto electrician who was looking at some other things took it off for me. Said he couldn't replace the hose because of the crimp connection so figured it'd be easier if I just found a replacement. I don't reckon they would've gotten under the car to get it off. I'm not in melb unfortunately or i'd take you up on the offer.

All good Lithius, I had a crack at removing it last night, had to pull most of the intake piping, AFM, airbox and a few other things to get it out. You were right, didn't have to get under the car. I took the damaged one into the wreckers and managed to pick one up for $40 , all I need to do now is put some extra thermal sheathing on it and modify the bracket so its sits further away from the O2 sensor. Still going to see the guy who was going to repair it so I can get some new o-rings and get him to regass it also.

    • Hello, I'm trying to make this thread basically the thread with all the answers to common questions regarding specifically the RB20 DE NEO + T engine, that comes in the R34. Answers will and only should be provided by those who have done this conversion or actually have some relevant real life experience please. Please feel free to ask questions in the comments if you have any so other members can answer. I feel like this thread is really needed, especially with more Americans buying (unknowingly going to regret it too) rb20 neo r34s. My first question being - What do you guys use for tuning? I have purchased a haltech elite 2500 Plug and play kit for the rb25det NEO because the ecu plug is the same, but I am unsure if any of the pins would need to be repined to match. Second question that I see asked very often - After this conversion, did you install the boost solenoid/ actuator? I see many people doing a + T setup on their rb20 NEOs while running stock RB25DET NEO ECUs with no tune. I am wondering how they are going about doing that and consistently abusing the car because many of these people have had these untuned setups running for a very long time. That was my original plan, but my engine cuts out at 5 psi of boost using the stock ecu with no tune and no boost solenoid/actuator.
    • interesting. ive read and heard otherwise over the past year. ive been doing this +t conversion on a rb20 neo using all oem rb25det neo parts including the ECU, and im having engine cut out issues when I hit around 5 psi of boost. Everywhere/everyone ive asked has told me its because I never wired in a boost solenoid/actuator to the ecu, so the ecu isn't getting the right signal once it hits 5 psi of boost, causing the engine to get shut off.
    • Mate, I take this thread in random directions on occasion myself, so no foul I'm a old fan of MCM anyway, I like their banter, and enjoy most of the stuff they do
    • Something strange is happening. I didn't touch the car since we last spoke on the forums. Yesterday was the first day of good weather, so i took it out for about 2 hours. It started up on first crank every time about 5 times total. I literally didn't do anything to do the car.  
    • I purchased this one. Very well priced and works great. I was rough with it to see if it will last and had no issues.  Teslong Two-Way Articulating Borescope with Light, Industrial Endoscope Inspection Camera with Articulated Probe, Flexible Mechanic Fiber Optic Snake Scope Cam for Wall Automotive Engine Inspect-5FT : Amazon.ca: Industrial & Scientific
