ok so i finally finished installing my FMIC today and went for a lil test drive in it. Had the boost controller adjusted wayyy out so stock boost. Gave it a bit and i felt it jump back alot once i hit 4.5k rpm. It used to do this before i adjusted the boost up to 12 so i just assumed it was that and got out and adjusted it up (although it had done it more than before) so i cranked it to where 12 psi is, then accelerated in 1st to about 4500 rpm. Felt a bit better until i hit the 4500 rpm then a loud bang and a whizzing sound from my turbo. Then the car stalled. .. I started it once more and it idles but very roughly and the turbo whizzes very loudly, as soon as i put any strain on it it stalls, I can hear a rattling sound coming from my inlet manifold to. Is my turbo/engine rooted? If so what would have caused it? Could it be a problem caused by some kind of intercooler leak?

Edit... hose ^^

wait up, was a hose came off but was ver hard to see from the angle i was looking at lol. Um should my inlet manifold be rattling tho, the hose is on but im scared to start it as im scared it sucked up some crap into the manifold and its siting there

yeh was the hose, sorry if my sentences sucked, i tried to say nevermind it was a hose but came out all retarded. I think was just something to do with unburnt fuel or something causing the ticking in the inlet manifold. With hoses on its gone. Was woried :)

have got a problem still tho. I get what sounds like an annoying constant beeping as soon as boost kicks in. Its not the normal turbo spooling sound and doesnt incease in frequency much.. Is this because of the new cooler or something? Or is there likely to be a boost leak somewhere

found the problem, the underside of one of the silicon joints had a split in it :) Thought those things were good for a fair bit of pressure and stretching (didnt overtighten em) ive replaced it and will eventually replace them all. Its the justjap kit, all the welding is pretty mickey

    • Dredgggggeeee time; I have recently finally started driving the car. It sat for so long that the fuel tank gave birth to rust sludge and blocked my lift pump sock and one of my walbro 460's and left grime, rust chunks and muck all through the surge tank and system. I decided to commit and pull the trigger on an oem r32 gtr fuel tank and Frenchys twin 460 / sender / surge tank hanger combo and all new larger lines and fittings etc, also boost doc heater hose kit / new heater core and a heap of other bits and shits like wideband sensor installed in the dump and Syltech iacv + lines and all wired and added to current tune. now having lightly driven it a couple times without issue, I can happily report on the hta3076 in its current tune. still no boost control switched on, 20psi gate springs, car makes 22psi at 3200rpm in 6th gear with 30-50% TPS from cruise at 100kmh. Going by the old graph, this means it should be making 300-325whp at the same numbers above. Very very responsive setup under true road driving loads. all that's left for the build is body loom + PDM, finish the remote aircon setup, install carbon fibre parts and go for full tune and 30psi. the 315 rear tyres are now performing like they're 195's, wheel spin in any gear at almost any rpm, whereas my previous setup hooked up in 3rd no issue, albeit Nt01's back then / RB25 5spd vs (new) old date r888r's Z34 6spd now, + obviously all the support upgrades I listed in the quoted post above. car sits at 1-3psi on cruise at 100kmh, expectations totally exceeded and I'm beyond stoked with all this so far.

    • I've also been eyeing their rear axles for my car. I purchased seat mounts from them about 7 years ago and they were hot garbage so I've been a little wary about purchasing them. With that being said, please buy them and get back to us haha. 
    • Can a moderator please move this into the right category.. I've accidently put this into racing build thread 🤦🏽‍♂️
