You know what get the hell outta my party....i know 30 block is bigger, i know 26 head is far way better. But i already have no way back now...ok? I spent good amount of money and if isnt of no use i'll buy another 26head and we got another engine...yeah it will be a brand new engine because the 26block has a very very wide variety of highly engineered parts down there from the biggest aftermarket engineering companies in the world that the 30 doesnt. Thats the whole main reason smart guy. Starting from tomie crankshafts to uprated pistons, their rings and everything...then my head will have tomie or hks camshafts and a whole new set of sensors from nissan to make the calculations just accurate...oh i also bought carbon fiber rocker cover and i dont wanna give that away...and a big turbo with the manifold, downpipe etc...so yeah i am a twat and next time do your retarded research right because bikes have reltively smaller engines and they are sooo many times faster than cars can ever be!

Not meaning to offend here..

But they were meaning the N1 block isn't worth buying over a normal rb26 block if applying your head..Or the 26 bottom being of any advantage. The cost far outweighs any gain ( there won't be ) over a 25 or 30 bottom end, which you can still put all your HIGH quality brand crank, pistons etc into.. Seems you are also money conscious, so forget about the N1 block, and spend the money elsewhere.. The block itself will not make the motor any better in your case.

Also standard rb30 crankshafts have produced over 1000hp, therefore not requiring aftermarket crankshafts, also the only reason someone would buy a tomei crank is if it were a stroker, which the rb30 does with it's capacity.... I'm not even going to list the aftermarket support for the whole RB series of engines, but there are plenty of big brand companies producing quality products = and superior to the Japanese product which will work with the 3l

The 3L block has its flaws. Yes they are ok to make HP but the 26 still does it better. If he has a Tomei stroker going in then he is better off with the N1 block anyway because it's ability to be further machined and still retaining strength. Then theres also the fact the Tomei crank will spin up faster due to its reduced weight, better counterweighted for the aftermarket rotating assembly and able to rev much higher without risk of crank flex or movement. When everyone else is changing gears at 8k, he will be flipping the bird while he hangs on at 10k :thumbsup:

I would say let the guy do as he pleases, he's not doing anything wrong.

Thats true, but he won't be changing at 10k with hydro lifters. So a block that bolts up would seem a better option or a head that suits the chosen block over extra machine work to achieve the same thing... If he had a built head already be different story, but seems as though he is only into early stages of build..

Either way, yes it can be done at a cost, whether that cost is a smart or most efficient decision..

    • No. The ECU's hose is for a connetcion between the plenum (assuming single throttle body, not ITBs) and the ECU's internal MAP sensor. This is the primary load measurement of the ECU - so you need to get this one right. This has NOTHING to do with the boost contol. The wastegate also needs to see a boost signal - but it is actually far better for it NOT TO COME FROM THE PLENUM (again, assuming single TB, and not ITBs). This should come from the turbo's compressor housing (assuming there is a nipple on there, which there might well not be), or on the boost pipe somewhere between the turbo and the TB. On the pipe from the turbo to the intercooler is usually most convenient. The boost controller is then located between that boost source and the wastegate, ACCORDING TO THE CORRECT PLUMBING DRAWING FOR THAT BOOST CONTROLLER. There is no general diagram or instruction that will be correct for every case. Then the other ports on the plenum are for purposes such as Duncan described. If the boost controller has an internal MAP sensor, for a boost display, etc, then it will want to be hooked up there, alongside the ECU and the FPR.
    • Ok gotcha, so one post to fpr  another to bov  and I have the mishimoto boost controller and a link g4+ so I’d just have the tuner set it up properly. For the last two from plenum post throttle to  ecu/ boost controller, I know that I have a hose coming from the ecu that I was confused about so I assume that’s what connect to the boost controller from the ecu? And then the last is just from plenum to boost controller then to wastegate?
    • From there, it was just a quick electrical check, prime the oil and start her up Which, is not what happened. 1. Bloody seppo Aeropro battery holder. Not only was it too tall for the battery (which I'll forgive them for, I have another battery the same nominal size that is taller than Neil's one, but the bracket is a fixed height so the battery was spaced up) But the thing that really shits me is the hardware to hold it on requires a 7/32 Hex key. WTF. No-one will ever be able to remove or install the damn thing without a hex key they don't own 2. Kill switch no longer worked once the console was installed. Neil mentioned above he had to adjust the length but it no longer cleared the console once installed. Sorted. 3. Suspiciously, the brake light holders were hanging in the boot with no globes. Sure enough the stopper on the brake pedal was missing so they are always on unless the kill switch is activated. Will pick one up tomorrow (turns out 32 and 33 don't use the same stopper) 4. All that sorted, I turned on the kill switch, turned the key to ACC. Nothing. Turned it to IGN. Nothing. Checked some fuses and found the main IGN in the boot was missing which improved things once it was replaced. Now ECU and dash lights turn on with IGN but still no fuel pump. 5. Turned it to Start....ECU on, no fuel pump, no starter. Plus the voltage dropped straight to 9v.  I suspect the starter is f**ked but am going to have to work through it all and see what is happening, really looks like more than one issue. Does anyone have the R33 fuse box key with the circuit it sources from (eg BAT, ACC, IGN, SRT etc) and supplies? I can find a translated list showing Amps and circuit without supply circuit, and I can find supply circuit without Amps and target circuit.
    • 3rd time lucky, the AAC is now all plumbed up after getting some final fittings All set up under the plenum of maximum access
