I used ARP flywheel bolts on my RB25 and they were fine. The packet they came in said they were for a 3S-GTE (toyota 4 cylinder) but they worked perfectly for me. Exactly what bolts were you using? A rebuild is better than losing your feet.

and yeah dude im super thankful nothing actually came off completely while driving/dynoing.....could have been devastating!

As a target for you to aim for, my GT-RS makes 5psi at 2000rpm. However, I have a very trick exhaust manifold and run an external gate with the internal wastegate welded shut.

I also have tomei poncams in my RB25, though still run the standard lower runners with a plenum top similar in principle to a plazmaman.

I also have this custom bad boy I scored going on so should also help a tad with better spool ....

Looks like an eBay stainless one.

I personally wouldn't use it. Stock is fine and won't crack.

It's definitely not an eBay manifold I've seen a few of them (they are puss) and the quality of this one is that of a professional. Not to mention I can't find any other manifolds bar one in japan that have the runner configuration of this particular one.... (three at back of motor)

I don't know if it's hybrid or what is is really but I guy had it for sale for 150 do I bought it just to have a look at it honestly .... But after seeing the quality I have decided to use it lol

make sure you strengthen/gusset it where you can...especially if your exhaust system isn't supported properly....a lot of weight hangs off it.... and they crack and warp.

And nice 1 year bump. Good commitment.

Cheers bruh!! Haha I was pretty freakin stoked with the end result considering all the dramas I had then when it was all finally done no one said "nice effort" or anything at all lol sad panda

I personally haven't seen anyone else achieve this with a HKS gtrs so I thought someone woulda had some praise lol

    • I might have to shoot them an email. Pity the exchange rate is so bad at the moment. BTW, thanks for posting that table makes interesting reading. 
    • Add these Sensors -Wideband, Oil Pressure, Fuel pressure, Intake air temp Good inspection of ignition system of coils, plugs and loom (12v feed and good ground)- a r35 kit is best bang for buck upgrade. A decent tuner should be able to see any issues with the trigger system- a link has good filtering but a good simple upgrade is the nz wiring bolt in kit. Check and replace all the fuel filters- you would be surprised at intank filter after a few years. Also good to check for any leaks on vac hoses and pipe work as has been said. No need to go overboard and spend big $$$ to enjoy the car. A quality tuner is getting harder to find as anyone with a laptop thinks they are a tuner. A link has great features to check sensor voltages and frequency inputs and easy to see live by pressing f12. The link can do a TPS & RPM fuel/ignition mapping on ITB cars then add a 4D table with MAP and ability to add a 5D to it (can help with economy at cruise with wheel speed vs TPS) Where are you located as that will help narrow down a good tuner ?
    • Reviving an old thread, I reckon my stagea is starting to slip. Car usually gets parked on a hill, narrow driveway so cant go up the driveway smoothly, anyhows, lately first gear feels "sluggish"? Not responsive. Feels like I gotta run the engine more than usual to get off the line...  Any recommendations for transmission servicing in Sydney? Or possibly just an excuse to go manual ?
    • Well, moulded carpets should fit well if the buck they use is the right shape. The finish is then just a case of stiching the trim around the edges. Shuoldn't be too hard to get it right. Back in the day, replacement carpets were all "fitted", in that they were stitched together, with cuts and slices taken out to make them form the shapes. Many more opportunities to get it wrong, hence all the concern over good vendors and bad vendors.
