WTB - RB25DET Pipes

Hi Peeps,

Just chasing a few parts to get my vehicle back to a standard for roadworthy inspection, I have attached a couple of images of parts required. Maybe someone has these lying around after an upgrade.

Parts required - see attached images
1 x Water Tube Splitter Pipe - Location in image (Metal Tube Drivers Side Rear of the engine)
1 x Turbo Inlet Metal Tube Only
1 x Standard Turbo Exhaust Manifold - my current one has a big crack half way through right near the turbo flange area.

From my understanding with current items that would not pass inspection are the following as outlined in EPA document - Unroadworthy items list. http://www.epa.vic.gov.au/~/media/Publications/1031 4.pdf

1. Plenum Chamber
2. Aftermarket Throttle Body
3. BOV Atmospheric release
4. You can either have aftermarket intercooler or Pod filter - if you have both the Pod needs to be in Airbox
5. Dual Stage Boost Controller
6. Adjustable Fuel Pressure Regulator
7. Aftermarket Turbo that interferes with the standard emissions and is not an approved ADR replacement

Any info would be greatly appreciated - Luckily I have 90% of the parts to change over - just a few which were cut and re-purposed for the mods.

I may have this, but I need a better description - have a shit-load of pipes and fittings removed during a 25-30 build & have no idea which one you want. I may also have the intake metal pipe, but I cut something a while ago and it may have been that. Will have a look tonight, but if you get me a  better description (or drawing / photo) of the first fitting it would help.

Thanks Mate, its hard to explain that water splitter tube, I dont really know the exact name of it - there is an image at the top of the location of the metal water tube, its located at the driver side rear of the engine, and it is a metal tube roughly 25mm in diameter and it has 2 small metal tubes on each side of it which are roughly 10mm in diameter, so its a large tube which has 2 other smaller tubes coming off it. Its the only metal water tube on the drivers side at the rear of the engine that is 25mm in diameter and has 2 other smaller tubes coming from it. The tube is fixed to the side of the engine with a small piece of rubber water hose and 2 hose clamps then obviously another water hose attaches to it with the 2 other smaller water hoses. Wow hope that doesnt confuse you too much. Damn Nissan hah

So you are returning to stock for reg purposes and then putting the aftermarket stuff back on? If so, I can lend you the bits I have, exh mani, metal intake tube, I also have a stock turbo and exhaust system if required.

Hi Champ,

Yeah I was offered a stock manifold in Geelong for a very low cost, however I am still yet to collect the item. Thats correct just getting all the stock things back on so I can get it roadworthy passed and registration done again. Then it will be all changed over again. Currently the vehicle is getting a new coat of paint and I am hoping to paint it within the next 3 weeks. 90% of the body is complete, just need to finish the rear bar and door jams then into the booth. After paint I will take it back down to Trent at Chequered tuning to finish the last tune. Then it will be all swapped back to stock. So I am hoping to have it all ready within 5 weeks for RWC Where are you located mate?

Mate thats excellent, I will certainly contact you when the time comes. Absolute legend as for exhaust and turbo pretty sure thats all good mate. I did cut into my dump pipe because it was custom already I simply cut the stock flange off and fabbed on the piece to take the new flange.

I will also look after you for helping me out and machine up a custom billet part, badge, what ever you like got some pretty nasty designs.

Thanks again

Is this the coolant pipe?

Hi Mate, yeah thats the pipe, coolant splitter. if anyone has had to change this pipe working on a complete vehicle they will know how frustrating it is to change or even tighten a hose clamp. Nasty pipe that one. Mine has corroded and split right where the smaller tube joins to the larger ones. I was thinking to just fab something from ally tube and then anodize it. But the thought of just getting something already available was much easier.

    • CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) has existed since the 80's. I'm looking into buying a Hummer H1 and they generally included it. 
    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
