hey fellas

just got my gtr back the other week and im having dramas

iv replaced the standard turbos with 2530s and what the car is doing is when crusing in some times 4th but mainly 5th gear at 3000rpm u start to put ur foot down to acelerate to keep up with trafic as the boost starts to rise and engin revs reach 3000rpm the turbos start surging like fighting each other pushing air back and forth in to the air flow meters cauing it to dump a shit load of fuel u can put ur foot flat to the floor and it keeps on doing it the car doesnt go any where and this problem only occurs when crusing but under full throttle in lower gears its fine car produces 275 rwk i have other mods which include

power fc

sard 700cc inj

air filter piping kit

hks filters

hks pump

greddy inlet plenum

plazmaman cooler

hks cam gears ( still set to 0 deg)

standard afm's

hks reg

tommie fuel rail

hks dumps

hks exaust

5 inch cat

sard single bov

car is running 14 psi boost

if any one knows of this problem or has incountered it before your help would be greatly appreciated

regards

anthony

its known as compressor chuffing or shuffling

do a search on it, its been covered before

the custom air filter piping kit is the likely cause of the issue

also the stock bovs will be much better than the single sard, throw that in the bin.

try with the stock bovs connected and see if the problem still occurs

a quick elmination would be to take off the pods and piping kit for the pods and just drive around the block with the airflow meters opened mouthed. see if it occurs, if it does, then its the removal of stock bovs.

if the problem goes away its likely the pods / piping kit may be the gremlin

what did they do exactly? on the certain load points where it wold surge, was it a timing or inj change?

Can't give you a definate answer on that one, suffice to say the car was a little frustrating to drive beforehand and smooth as factory after. Give Croydon's a call and chat to Jim about it, as im sure he could explain what he did to the tune to overcome it.

you need to make the piping the same length from each turbo to the airflow meters.

but thats abit tricky.

also having a balance pipe joining the two intakes together helps aswell.

and yes no bov woks as quickly as the stockers . there sweet :thumbsup:

Yes we have a balance pipe between the two intakes but it was there all the time, the two intakes are of different length. He almost tuned the shuffle out of the GT-RS turbo's now fitted and is confident of having it sorted once we put the balance pipe between the two exhaust manifolds.

So your adding the balance pipe now. Will be good to see the Diff

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
