OK, I need to draw on the collective experience on here! Put my car on a dyno this morning to try and diagnose a miss high in the revs. Anyway, the problem is that now the back of the car vibrates and almost bounces at speed. It was suggested at Chilleh tonight that the CV joints might be the culprit, but there is no vibration through the gearstick or steering wheel. All seat of the pants big-time vibration!

Could the dyno have spun the tyres and put out the balance so much as to cause the massive vibration??

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Dave

And the prize goes too................

No one!! Turns out one of the tyres was about to pop!! Being some cheap shite from assbang indonesia, they couldn't take our Aussie heat and there were 6 bulges on the inside of the tyre wall all about 4 cm's wide. So, 2 new tyres on the back and we will keep an eye on the front ones. Got some decent tyres this time, Firestone Firehawks. $500 for the two fitted and balanced so not too bad.

Have kept the old tyres as I may take them back as they were only 5 months old.

      The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow

      Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance

      Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
