Adamlz is serving a specific side of the automotive KZitem community, the kind that wants super exciting high cost builds and click bait. Greg is building an engine from bare block, doing it informationally for REAL automotive KZitem enthusiasts. Keep doing what you're doing Greg, you're turning out a sick build even if these 13 year old wannabe drift kids say lz is doing anything better

You are running the lines like I thought it would be the safest way, although so many people keep hooking up the line in the VVT-magic-mechanism on top or at the back of the head. Now seeing it, the oil line coming from the pressure sensor doesn't even look as long as I thought i would, so I think I'll go for that as well. I know it will be mentioned in your video series later on, but what FPR do you use? :D Do I really need the one with the return line from my NA or can I use the one that came with my VICS manifold? People on miataturbo are rude when it comes to asking questions like this :(

I'm new to this, so don't be too harsh... Doesn't the VVT system work based on oil pressure? If you tap into the VVT feed line for the turbo, won't that drop the pressure on the VVT feed line, i.e. defeat the VVT?
@TheCarPassionChannel
7 жыл бұрын
+rd400guy1 Even when tapped for turbo the VVT line should maintain consistent pressure and follow RPM just like without the turbo line. As long as your pressure is always the same at each RPM you should be able to have a consistent VVT tune. But, I've never tuned VVT before so I'll find out!

Thread sealer is absolutely required with NPT fittings. They will leak without. Also the heat shield material that you put over the oil feed is most likely fiberglass. There aren't many plastics that can handle high heat.

Would add restriction which is bad in the drain. An oil cooler anywhere prior to the turbo would bring overall temps down but very few people have found it a requirement for street builds and usually it's just because you can. Bearing in mind that you want your engine working properly and not taking forever to come up to temp.

Hey G, so the 1.6 oil pressure sensor is a real sensor not just a there's pressure but can't tell you the exact pressure like the NB. If thats the case that should work on the NB VVT right?

mgamma5001 Do NB's have a fully functional gauge? I've never owned one haha. I just know my 1.6 cluster will understand my 1.6 sensor. I'm running a 2nd oil pressure sensor for MS to actually get numbers, I just don't want a dead oil pressure gauge in my cluster 😁
@mgamma5001

Unfortunately the NA - NB starting with the 95 went to a gauge that simply indicates the presence of oil pressure. Up to 94 they actually indicate real pressure, I just wanted to figure out if the 94 gauge and sender would work on the NB. Even if it isn't a great fit having a real pressure gauge is a must for a modified or track machine. Keep up the great work and detail!
