had a few hours free today so i rilled up me a 3 inch to 3.5 inch step and tigged it to the V-Band. Tried to go buy some tight radius 3.5 inch mandrels and was dissapointed >.<

Man this town needs some more performance orientated shops! Should have the dash fittings and line on wednesday, and stainless pipework to go to the cooler piping should be done by the end of the week :)

Ill throw some pickatures up later on of the mounting of the turbs on the GREDDY mani.

Me: Walks into repco, up to the parts counter. "Hi, im chasing a bosch motorsport fuel pump, part number blah blah blah, also known as an 044"

Repco phag: I will go see if i have one.

Repco phag: I have this high pressure clacker pump, will it do?

Me: Facepalms. No son, it wont do, look the part number up and tell me what its worth on my trade account.

Repco phag: At trade it comes to 323.50 per pump plus a 15 dollar freight charge per item.

Me: Facepalm. Walks away.

They also sold me the wrong oil filter which kind of fitted....its o-ring was kind of bigger then std and didnt seat against the block so kind of blew out with some temp and pressure and kind of drained all the oil from the sump and knd of spun a big end....in hindsight I am gutted I didn't check the new for old side by side.

Got the front end boots done today. Front end is now complete and now its on to the Surge tank install. BIG thanks go out to Brendan at VULTURE for the mega cheap pumps and MEGA GREAT service ive had from him on a few items. Now all i need to do is break in to a speedflow retailer and start making the pumps work.

Next week i am hoping to get a few days off(i work in excess of 90hrs a week) so i can get a little more progress as my neibhours are starting to get agitated at my late night booze fuelled shenanigans. Hoping to have a run in tune by the end of the month or at least early december, ill shake the car down then im throwing 40+pound at it for a hero run or 3 :)

      Low oil pressure after WOT

      By pogman · Posted

      I much prefer that to an actual oil pressure issue, never would of thought it would of been a volt drop issue but SAU brains win again. Guess ill be turning down the oil pressure limit for the track and hunting some grounds. Ill hopefully update this thread with some high oil pressure and solid ecu voltage logs.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      You've just discovered a really good reason to tell yourself, yes, I do need to buy an aftermarket ECU. Put the MAF in the bin. Slap in the new ECU and have a think about what turbo sounds you prefer.  Do you want a 90's style BOV wooosh? Do you want a hektik tsututututu?  Mate, can't go wrong. Just gotta get that ECU and the world is your oyster.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Iam just curisou about this topic. I saw this video. It is about Greddy Type FV2. I know that BoVs are about that sound but how and when to use it? I read some topic here and from what i have understand on stock RB with MAF there will be some "problems" if you use this BoV? It vents the air in to the atmosphere and the MAF on stock car needs this air back in to the intake and not out? Or is it wrong? If so...i saw you can put some adaptor to circule air back...but does that not "loose" that sound? I saw another BoV from Turbosmart and it has two "exhaust" like ports? One is for the stock tubing for letting air back and one is for "sound" and let the air in the atmosphere? Can someone please explain? This is the Greddy one:  And this is the Turbosmart.     THANK YOU!! EDIT: So i read about this topic some more and i if i understand that correctly: That Greddy can function either like BoV or 100% Bypass valve? And that Turbosmart is what they called hybrid so you can adjust what and how many air can be vented out or back in? Is this right? THX!

      That dirty voltage drop is the culprit I suspect
