A Cometic MLS head-gasket is sandwiched in-between & now its time to finish it offIMG_9084.thumb.JPG.8e0ebcfedd0bbf22883fbd352678c50d.JPG

All assembled & ready to go - a cheeky ASR extended sump has also been given a new coat of paint & will hold 6.5ltrs of oil :)58e0ad20f346e_IMG_9088(noexif).thumb.jpg.3a50baaf2ea5787db0fb040d828ee0f4.jpg

Next steps are:
- Transfer the Alternator, P/S pump, Aircon compressor from the old rb20 & fit the shiny gtx3071.
- Remove the rb20 & gearbox and make space for the Neo and Rb25 gearbox which will be popping inside.
- Work out the wiring

Still so much to do....

If your willing to spend the dollars I would get this for the wiring side

Will do everything you need it to do, I also have all the wiring info somewhere on a hdd so let me know and ill pass it on

oooo ooo yummy, curious with your NEO what oil restrictors did you use? I've read the NEO block already has decent restrictors from factory and there's no need to run smaller.

Neo has single 1.3mm from memory (was like 3 years ago). I put single 1.2mm in my 25/30 Neo.

I read someone said 1.27mm which is pretty much 1.3mm.. I should be good then :)

Running OEM :)

No big news - been trawling through blurry wiring diagrams for the r32 to prepare for the massive job of wiring in the rb25 neo.
I have heard stories of people losing power-steering when doing such conversions and I tried to get to the bottom of this...

It looks like the HICAS ecu controls the electronic power-steering solenoid.
This solenoid is driven by Speed-input; at low-speed there is more power steering assistance & at high speed its reduced.

It looks like the HICAS ecu requires 3x inputs - Speed, Tachometer & Neutral.
As long as those 3x inputs are still supplied to the HICAS ecu, then there should be no issues with Power steering! (fingers-crossed)
Not sure where these 3 inputs splice under the dash or next to the ecu...will need to follow some wiring within the car & see where they lead..

Hope to create my hybrid r34/r32 engine-loom this weekend - some further reading is still required.

anymore updates on the hybrid loom?

Still working on it - have managed to map each wire on the Neo F3 plug as well as the r32 body plugs. Will attempt this weekend on the hybrid loom.

For those playing at home, found an easy method to repin the Neo F3 plug here -

    • Of course you can. That was a waste. Straight down one oil drain gallery and out the sump hole. Could at least have run the engine a little (obviously with at least minimum oil level on the stick).
    • Oh really? Maybe I'm being silly. I'll get some more shots. I had it higher but found that it went too high after a drive, I never knew this but exhausts can move around a bit when hot (makes sense, just never knew) and when it was higher it would make nice cooking plastic smells. That said, I could put some heat tape on a'la 90's R33 exhausts     Ha, I've spent a lot of my life in castle hill waiting for cars to be done. I think I'd prefer something closer but thanks D. 
    • @Duncan Yes, changed filter every time. I don't have the service manual for the car yet (Car was imported and they removed everything when importing). I've been using the oil change threads in the forum as reference.   @Milkmun The second oil change was after ~4 months after the first months and I wasn't sure about reusing engine oil that was opened. The third oil change happened within 3 weeks of the second oil change and I used the previous leftover oil to just "clean up" the system. (Poured it through while the sump plug was open")
    • I left the ceramic coating off this bit, hopefully it just comes off after a few drives.   The gap between the spokes is too tight for anything on a stick, its only marginally bigger than my finger. I have to use a brush to get in there and its a big reason why I thought I'd try the coating.   Absolutely will do. I have EBC Blue Stuff pads to put on the front which will make them a bit dirtier. I'm hoping a pressure wash will just get most off. The shine is different to most, its very thin but seems very well 'attached' so hopefully it lasts.
