Hey guys, my turbo kicks in around 3000rpm and u can feel the power increasing rapidly to 4000 rpm, but it seems to just bottle kneck or max out or hit a wall all the way from 4000 through to 6000 rpm at which stage the turbo kicks back in (and i gotta shift). I cant afford a dyno at the moment as im still paying the car off ( and the $1800 insurance -_-) so any suggestions would be much appreciated

Spark plug gaps are all good and spark getting through is sweet.

Ah 3000 rpm isnt down low to me, drives me nuts having to drop the clutch at 4000rpm to take off fast -_-

I thought maybe its just the turbo maxing out after 4000rpm, but then i thought it was unusual that it seems to kick back in again at 6000 rpm

Oh well thanks for your help. Cant put a new turbo onto it due to power restrictions damit.

um it couldnt be like the wastegate or something could it?

What about the Computer that organises fuel distribution and such? Any way that could be misfunctioning or set up wrong? Its a pretty standard looking unit, sitting on the top of the engine where u take off the spark plug cover, right?

thanks

well i fancied i did see a drop in boost at these rpm's but i think mainly it just stays at the same spot (about 5 out of 7).

Only work that has been done is the exhaust and new suspension.

I dont know what my boost is set at as i dont have a boost gauge and have very little knowledge on cars made after 1985 so that i am unable to put one in.

Me thinks you running standard CPU

Me thinks you gots a classic case of retard and enrich me does

To much boost perhaps

Anything ringing a bell :D

The std ecu does not have an issue with R&R.

They simply fuel cut.

Ppls have dropped hks2530's on them with an FCD and made 200rwkw on the stock ecu.

R33 ecu... yes major r&r.

Dyno power runs are not expensive. Anywhere from $35 to $80 depending on the shop.

Throw iton the dyno and see what the afr's, boost and power curve are doing.

No doubt it will shed some light on whats up with it, much cheaper than replacing a fuel pump that may not make a difference.

It could be a number of things... for example afm, knock sensors, fuel pump, cas... throw it on the dyno to weed a few of them out.

yeh we serviced it and such so all thats good, ran some injector cleaner through it to, um in a couple of house (5) ill be home and will take a pic of the engine bay and post it here.. although i wouldnt know what to do once its attached, e.g. what to crank it to and such.

ahm ill take it to a dyno i guess so they can adjust the boost and such for me, and get them to check out the cpu and all that, hope it doesnt cost to much, i still owe $10000 on the car zz

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
