Getting 200ks outta a 34 is symptoms of something wrong. Book it in to get a full service with a mechanic tht deals with imports and they should be able to suss it out for u.

hey im new to this website.. but reading ur problems.. i have asked Dr Phil and he has advised me that getting 200k's out of an r33 would be pretty average. that would be thrashing it everyday, full ehaust, boosted to 15 pound and air filter. i just did a test recently which involved driving around like Dr Phils grandma- exectly like a grandma and not going over 3000 revs, shifting early and not letting the blow off valve release(no boost anyway) and i was stoked that i got 320 k's out of it. its usually bout 250 which includes a bit of both driving methods.. but it is known that r33 temp sensors are sumtimes faulty which cause overfueling... hope this helps

are you trying to mock this guy?

dr. phil does know everything

320km's from a full tank isn't that good either. I managed to get just under 500km's from a tank full by driving off boost for the whole tankful. Normally I get about 300km's~400km's from a tank.

This is on an R33 GTS25T, with GT2530 550cc injectors and PowerFC.

I'd start with the O2 sensor; then look at your fuel lines - maybe a hairline crack somewhere.

Don't laugh at my comment, someone actually had a hole in their fuel tank and was complaining about getting 40ks out of a tank :)

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
