I dont recall an air chamber on the RB20....hmmmm? I'll go and look at the manual drawings. But I removed all the emission hardware.
-
I removed my AAC on my RB20 with no problems at all! Starts up and idles fine....but then I dont drive the Z when its really cold....by Ontario standards.
-
LOL...and Im pissing around turbo charging my KA24e S13! Nice work!
-
I just dont know.....some angles look great...others odd.
Gotta see it in person. As a roadster owner I would like to see a soft top version.
Looks smaller than the current model?
DONT LIKE THE HEADLIGHTS!
-
wow...those are pretty! Nice workmanship!
-
Watch your mouth........you may be getting close to hitting a nerve for some of us older guys....
..whatever older means.Must be an older guy that doesn't know the street value of these cars at all. -
WTF...!!!!! put these on a gold Monte Carlo!
Good day.
-
First killer bees and now killer crickets! I cant wait for the movie!!!!
Jiminy goes JERK!
Its like the day when my oldest son...when he was 5...came to me with a little cute green beetle on his thumb. He was terrified of it and asked me to take it of. I calmed him down and explained that cute green bugs dont biet. Guess what....it bit him...wow what a look a betrayel did I get from that little man!

HAhaha..in Ontario they just remove the locking tab on the pump handle ........ and trust us not to jam in the gas cap. Glad to hear the car is OK.
"And this is why New Jersey and Oregon won't let you pump your own gas!"

A Stock RB20 ..R32..is 215 at crank....

Raf
Other than follow instructions ....are there any best practice procedures I should follow?
ie.. Do I let it "set" a bit before joining the pieces.
Thanx
-
OK.OK..OK...OK.....OK!!!! Nough said!!!! Off to get my weekly dose of Canadain Tire!
A quick note on that turbo...its very odd...I know its from a Z31 but the DP is not attached to the flapper flange. To your commets...could it be a JDM version of some kind?
Thanx Raf!
jerry jerry jerry.... no 30thou gasket, please.
save your dollars, and buy a 7 dollar tube of ULTRA COPPER PERMATEX GASKET.
-
Well...it is creative.
-
Im just going to make a 30thou copper gasket and trust that this should fill in any irregularities that may have developed ober the years.
Thanx!
on the z31 the wastegate housing is part of the downpipe. The L28et uses that same pattern but the wastegate housing is separate, with a 4 bolt flange on the outside for the DP. I have never seen a gasket on the L28 turbo wastegate housing, so maybe you could just bolt them up metal to metal. I have never seen a issue from doing that. -
Just to repeat...from personal experience, not hear say....I ran the roller bearing for years with zero issues. A good friend built a L28 at the same time, also with a roller and he is still running his car on and off the track.
Saying this...I dont believe there was any notable advantage. My bud had them laying around the dealership so we used them.
Lets put it this way...by going standard bushing you wont be saying..."I wish I had gone roller" as you would never notice the difference anyway.

Im confused? Are you RBS30???
I have already placed my request for RB20DET badges but have heard nothing for many weeks. It this offer still on and by who?
Sorry for not replying people, we've both been flat chat with work & moving house.if anyone would like a set, please send a PM or email me at k.sinclair@live.com.au
-
Nope! Its a 5 hole.
Thanx.

So it's highly possible that there IS NO gasket for this particular bolt setup. And that would kind of make sense, seeing as it's got 7 bolts to hold it nice and flat.
Im starting to believe this to be the case! I still may make a copper one for good measure.
Thanx Raff!

As it turned out this welder was previously used as a power source so I had to buy a few things to make it work. Im still under $325 including a new welding helmet.
Im gonna start practicing later this week!
-
Thanx aaron...I ran right down and tried a 4 hole and a 6 hole gasket ..happen to have both in a box...nope! Neither work:confused:
Hey I just realized I called to you late Friday.....welcome aboard!...and I did vist http://homemadeturbo.com/ cool site.
At this point Im considering having them laser cut at a local shop. If I cut up a 7 hole OEM
Thanx!down pipe and use the flange as a pattern....... but first I will try the part number below!
jerry, have you checked to see if a standard 4 bolt gasket will work? it doesn't look like all 5 holes will line up, but if 3 of them do and the port is centered, then it should still work fine if you can get all 7 bolts in. might be easier/cheaper than going with a home made one.aaron

During this mornings search for Bike engined cars I came across this web site http://www.h1v8.com/page/page/1562068.htm
It sounds more or less like what you are tring to accomplish....right down to the crank configuration. For what its worth they will be going into production early next year and I expect price will drop much below the current $30K. In my mind ...the best part about this 2.8L powerplant..is it weighs only 150 pounds.
Oh ya...go here as well... www.dpcars.net/home/intro.htm for an actual installation.

Thanx Joe! I will order one and see what arrives!

-
Im pretty sure this oufit carried them...but I believe they were about $1000 for the pair. Cant find them on the e-store, perhaps they were discontinued??

Wheel balance? And check all the suspension bolts to make sure they are tight!
