5thgenluder Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Hey everyone. I have a few questions on my rb25det swap. I used the greddy intake manifold install thread and have a few questions on piping. Does this hose attatch to the pipe on the back of the motor that I have them lined up. What did you guys do with these water pipes? I am afraid that now that the greddy intake manifold is on there is nowhere to mount it. Is it just gonna rattle up against the motor? Also since I am not running a heater can I just connect these 2 pipes together. I am sure I will have more questions later. Any pics of the piping you guys ran would be great.

Pic one is correct, connect that small hose to the metal water pipe to the turbo Pic two, yes you could join the two pipes together to bypass the matrix btw, By the time you have the loom etc crammed under the plenum you will find the metal pipe doesn't move much anyway hths Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrcbonk Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 The line is coolant for the turbo. If you are not planning to hook up the throttle body coolant lines ignore the following. I am going to be running the car in colder weather so I teed off this line and am running an arm out to the throttle body. All this does is mimic the coolant pass through on the stock plenum. The other side of the throttle body coolant line runs to a similar nipple on the block coolant intake near the thermostat. Check the third pic in the attached thread. If you are interested and want more pics let me know. WARNING, I haven't started the car yet, so its all theoretical. http://forums.hybridz.org/index.php/topic/100497-rb-lockar-throttle-cable/ Bonk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5thgenluder Posted October 14, 2011 Author Share Posted October 14, 2011 ok so Im working on some wiring following Chris Rummels guide. I dont have the connector he pictures and am curious if this is the ground wire you guys used. It is a thicker black wire with little silver dots on it. I left the pic big for details.
