Ive got a R32 GTR and ive taken out the ristrictor in the hose that goes to the boost controller solaniod but i was also told to join those 2 hoses together to get 15psi.. It works BUT like at 6000rpm its sometimes starts to make a limiter noise. could some one help me because my car is GOIN NUTS ON 15PSI :O

I was only running about 8-9psi before but now that little bit extra is awesome.

DO GTRS have a boost cut defender?

ANYONE?

Im only new to the forum so this is a pic of my car.

explain exactly what happens at this 6000rpm mark.

does it cut the power completely.. like is it violent?

is it like a rev limiter where it stutters and kinda back fires?

doest it keep reving up but kinda misses?

what happens to the boost gauge when this "CUT" happens? still sit at 15 or drop?

with more description and those answered, people can give you a better response as to what the problem is.

at the moment it could be..

AFM max

spark blowing out due to excess boost.

coil packs arc'ing out

etc...

I think that the fact that you now have about 2 x the boost you had before, you are blowing out the spark.

there are a few things you can try which will cost you nothing but some of your time.

1.) take out your spark plugs and gap them down to 0.8mm.

if they already are, drop them back to 0.7mm.

2.) with some electrical tape, tape up the coil packs. there is a guide on this in the maintenance section of these forums.

I did the above 2 points 2 weeks ago and my car revs out smoothly now.

mine is an rb20 but same edal.

runs a little more boost than stock.

I suggest you try the 2 things above as they are free and MAY fix the issue.

If you are in Sydney, I can help you do it if you like.

if they are anything like GTST's then yes they do.

Write it out 20 times..........

Hope you learnt a lesson, next time it will be detention for you

:O cheers :P

if you are running 15psi and stock ecu you will be encountering the STOCK EXCESS AIRFLOW protection. turn the boost down and try again, i would suggest around 10psi at the most. this should work around the excess airflow protection

    • Need to see other side of PCB in that area...ie; I don't see any thru-hole mounting, just soldered vias (smd zeners in SOT23 have 3 legs but only 2 are used, as reflected by PCB tracks)
    • 4 to 5 is fine. It will be slow, but that's better than blowing turbos. I don't have a PS pump idle up solenoid on my car, because... I think when we put the Neo in we retained my R32 lines. But.... From inspecton of the R34 vacuum hose diagram, you can see that the solenoid needs to be connected to the turbo inlet as source of clean air) and the plenum (as source of vacuum - which is the place for the air to flow to to cause the idle to increase). So 3 to 1 is VERY WRONG. 3 should go to either the turbo inlet, or the plenum. Follow the other hose from the PS solenoid and if it goes to the plenum, then your 3 goes to 2 2 would also serve as a bleed port for a boost solenoid.
    • Pull them out and pull more apart. You can't do shit with them still bolted to the floor of the car.
    • Yes it is. ZD1 is on the other side of the board. Where ZD1 is marked is clearly opposite a 2 pin device. Our 3 pin device here is not a ZD.
    • Alright, a little update on this... I called Fulcrum, who used to be the distributor in Australia. No Bueno, they don't service them anymore.  Called shock works, who don't service them but offered to dyno the shocks for performance, and suggested DNA in Sydney might service them.  Called DNA, who also do not service them and basically said they try to steer customers away from tein for this exact reason these days- there is just no support for them anymore apparently.  Both SW and DNA said they are a not necessarily a bad product, but they just don't service the brand or know anyone who does service the brand anymore.  So... I could keep calling around but at this point I think I'll probably just spring for the shockworks product, unless anyone here knows anything.  Cheers 🍻
