Well I have looked using the Search button but cant seem to find what im looking for.

I have Just installed a new turbo onto my car but it seemed to do this on the old turbo.

I am boosting 1Bar and I could drive hard and then all of a Sudden it will just stop and it hurts your head when it does :D

another thing is when im boosting sometimes it seems to struggle, A friend of mine said when he was following me it had some sort of whiteish smoke comming out of the back when it was doing it.

Also where is the oil sencer placed as my gauge is playing up.

Put it back on standard boost and it won't do that.

Its the way the standard ecu is mapped. So that when the ecu measures more air flow then standard you go onto a higher load point that is mapped with lots of fuel and no ignitition timing.

Only real way around it is to go buy a PowerFC if you want more then standard boost.

The oil pressure sender is on the oil-water cooler behind the oil filter on the engine block. It has a yellow plug on it generally.

this man is right on the money.

the oil gauge playing up is common problem in the r32's.. I still never found out if it was the sender or the gauge itself, but don't freak if it says you have zero oil pressure.

Still gives me the $H!ts though!

as for the boost, 1 bar is roughly 14.5 psi. The computer wont like it, the intercooler probably wont, and neither will the engine. 12 psi should be a more appropriate figure.

and as stated above, an ecu upgrade should be a priority.

I also suggest a front/dump, high flow cat, and an intercooler.

Well I guess I will have to get a Power FC then

and intercooler isnt a biggy yet. Big loads of power isnt what im after anyway, i just want to to run right.

Well everything seems to be fine at 14.5PSI

The engine is more then able to take that.

I guess I need to save up hard to get that power FC and see how she goes then

dude! I'd be getting a FMIC before anything.... The standard intercooler is definately not able to cope with 14.5psi!

Get a FMIC, but not a huge 600x300x75 one... Get like a second hand GTR one or something.

Will work out perfect.

hope this helps:

ChinaCopy Cooler 300x600x76 = $250

Piping = $600

Nismo FuelPump = $300-$400

Nismo Injectors 450cc = $600-$700

Nismo FRP = $160

PFC = $1000 + $400 to $450 for tuning or Hyperdrive will retune your stock ecu with a lumpy rom for around $800

maybe a clutch too $800-$900

ohh and how are you controlling boost?

ohh yes and your getting fuel-cut from ur ecu as everyone has said :P

question for you do you know what ur hybird turbo is rated at? as i would be interested to know if ur pushing around the 230-250rwhp without a fmic and if its pinging

Well I have fixed some of my Probs my Bov was too loose and now she seems to be heaps better, just every now and then I get some fuel cut but she lets loose again and fine. But when I back off she still is over fueling I guess thats where a tune will come in handy

The Turbo is rated at 500+HP and 25PSI+

I ant pushing those limits I have no reason too.

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
