fugi, i am not familiar with the r32 at all, and i dont wanna start guessing.

CALLING R32 OWNERS !!!!

lol

R32 is as simple as it can get.

There's a nipple on the turbo's compressor cover, a hose runs from that to the actuator. Simply shove the bleeder int he middle of that hose.. You can't cut it as its too short; head down and buy a length of hose.

Thanks monkeyboy but ur guessing is probly better than my guessin.

Ohh cubes i didnt want to install a bleed valve i already have one of them. i want to install the turbotech BC.

Dose you instruction still apply??

cauz if it dose that means i will have to take off the heat sheild. The screws on it are stuffed..

and also what do i have to do to my bleed valve?? remove it??

Do you guys tend to leave the stock restrictor in place. I Had mine out and the boost sucked, i could not turn the controller in much to get 10 psi, so teh spring hardly did any work. I migth try it with the restrictor in place.

your talking about that little brass thing in the hose before the BC?

I left mine in, BC seems to work great with it in. I wondered myself if should take it out.

i don't have a restrictor in mine. i put a new bit of hose on there. didn't seem to affect it at all.

fugi- yes cubes instructions still apply. when he is talking about a bleed valve he is talking about a boost controller. doesn't matter what type.

i brought one of these of a member and it's rooted had it on 2 diffrent cars and the boost just shoots up to 15 pound adjusting the spring does bugga all . i think the previous owner put a differnt spring in it for some reason :-(

    • Just checked in first post and you should be able to bring it home November this year, right? I'm amazed you made it through four years of this. As hard as it feels now the rest will go by in a breeze in hindsight, I'm sure.
    • Realized I haven't been back here in a while. Still here, still alive, still waiting for the car.  I went back again the only time last year from Oct-Nov for R's Meeting and drove it around some more, including a few laps on Fuji Speedway(in the wet, sadly). The car still feels good, but have a couple small things to address. I've been getting more parts but have slowed down still, and most of the bigger purchases are now out of the way. I find myself getting impatient more and more when it comes to getting started on this project; it's quite hard for me not being able to really dive in and start making this car my own because it's halfway across the world. At times it doesn't even really feel like I own one of these. Haven't really been motivated or had the desire to document the last trip on here or social media for, well, reasons... but here's some pics...it's also still alive and well as you can see: I've narrowed down to the last large part purchases(anything over $2k) before the engine build to be: 1) Ohlins Road & Tracks 2) ATS Twin Carbon clutch 3) Endless BBK with some custom options and 4) Kansai Service carbon driveshaft I don't think the budget exists for all of these this year, but I'll try for one or two items I think. Though, every time I look at my spreadsheet I sigh, shake my head, and get depressed just that little bit more.  'til later.
    • It's a stunning location!  I've been to NZ twice but haven't made it to the North Island yet.  Definitely on the cards but the South Island is hard to tear yourself away from too... Looking forward to see what you can wring out of it once you can get it to hold together!  Be awesome to get a low 11 or even sneaking into the high 10's pass out of it.  That's a bloody quick car that most people will never experience in their life.  Enjoy!
    • Nominally yes but I’m not really at that stage yet. Outsourcing to Japan is also a relatively good deal at the moment because their currency has devalued much more against the USD.  You would assume this but a lot has changed from the pandemic. Mechanics are in short supply and demand for fixing old cars has gone up from the cost of new cars. 250-300 USD/hr is not an unusual shop labor rate in California and you’re paying that regardless of whether the guy is competent or not. Coworkers have been quoted 3000 USD for a water pump and thermostat at a dealer on an N54. Oil changes went from ~75 USD to 150 on fairly normal cars like Civics. The cost of the oil and filter hasn’t even kept up with inflation.
    • The downside to that is that the cost of everything, particularly labour, is significantly higher here than it is over there in the Disunited States of Slavery. You can hire 3 tradesmen over there for just the Ranger Raptor allowance of a single 3rd year apprentice over here.
