I have installed the boost controller into my GTST and it works beatifully. The only problem now is that I get this loud clicking noise, like the solenoids opening and closing quickly when the engine is off and the ignistion is on. This doesn't happen on idle, only when the engine is off.

Another thing that I have noticed that it happens when the engine is hot. Now the solenoids are mounted underneath the power steering bottle, pretty much under the cold air snorkel, which I thought would be a pretty cool place in the engine. That location allowed for some super short vacuum hoses.

The settings are as follws:

Boost: Manual

Set: 42

Gain: 10

AC/WG: AC

Another thing is that the clicking goes away when I switch that channel into automatic.

Has anyone else experienced this?

i've had this problem before with a trust profec A. it would just click away after the car was turned off. it actually says in the trust manual that it will do that, and not to worry about it. you can solve it though by wiring it up so that it only gets power when accessory is on (ie no constant 12v). then when the car is off, it wont have any power. From memory it's wired up usually with 12v constant and 12v ign or accessory.

Yeah, it's actually hooked up to IGN, so its only on if the ignition is on. The funny thing is that the ignition wire that I hooked it up to (#49 on the ECU from memory) stays on for a second or so after the engine is turned off. That's how I discovered the clicking in the first place.

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
