  1. I've done three of them and they've always bolted straight up, oil and water lines all match up fine. Try find one with the compressor elbow that has the vacuum nipple coming off it factory, I'm fairly sure they come off the R34 turbos
  2. My R32's engine bay. Yes, woodgrain. haha
  3. A few shots of my R32 from Saturday. And some footage from inside the car
  4. Hey guys. I have recently rebuilt an Rb25det to put in my R32. Unfortunately today I discovered that the thread on the inside of my crank is stuffed. Does anybody here know what pitch the thread is? I think it's a M16, but I don't know the coarseness of the thread itself so that I can buy a tap to fix it. Any help would be appreciated as this is the only thing holding up putting the bloody thing in my engine bay
  5. Checked for vacuum leaks? Your car will idle a bit higher when you first start it, then once it settles if you have any vacuum leaks they will become apparent as the revs will drop and your car will start 'hunting', i.e revs will drop,drop,drop and then kick back up. Have a good look over EVERYTHING. Even if you havn't changed something you could have knocked a hose off or something equally annoying.
  6. Borrowed my mates wheels to get an idea of what widths/offsets I want for 18's.
  7. I thought as much. Thanks for your help mate
  8. I was more wondering why an RB25 turbo would be any different to tune than a cheap chinese one or something?
  9. Hey guys, I have an RB20det with rb25det 45v1 turbo (standard RB20 wastegate), FMIC, GTR pump, 3" straight pipe, EVC4 etc. Just all of the basic mods really. I'm looking in to getting one of these Marobi chips as they have just popped back up on trademe and are cheap enough to give a try. Anyway I have advised the guy of the mods to my car, and he has come back saying this: Is this true? My car seems to run fine with this turbo? The chip is tuned for upgraded fuel pump, factory injectors/AFM, FMIC, Free flow air filter and exhaust, and also says Now to me, this sounds near on exactly the same as my setup? Can anybody elaborate? I am aware that a generic chip will never give me the same results as a custom tune, but the factory setup is 'generic' in a way aswell, so I figure atleast this chip is closer than factory to what I am running. Cheers
  10. it would be a crime not to mate. haha. yeah i'm thinking about going D-Max +15mm widebody fronts. my wheels are only 17x9 +30 (or 17x9 +5 with the spacers on) so they wouldn't really fill anything bigger. probably just goin to roll and lip them for now though.
  11. just lowered my car a bit more and put in front 25mm spacers and r33 lca's. new camber arms in the rear and subframe lock collars. check it: it's running a shit load of toe out at the front at the mo so i'm getting an alignment today. then rolling the guards. should have a good stance once that's all done
  12. nisskid, is that yours in the last pic? looking tuff bro. how'd you go about doing your guards? i'm after a simliar roll/flare on mine. did you just use a bolt on hub guard roller and bog? and also how far can you roll 4dr rear guards withou getting a pressure dent? the swage through the middle should mean you can get a heap more than silvias etc? only limiting factor would be the door
