Ok, as you may know already i went and got another compression test on friday and the results were good, but now the car is running shit and coughs and splutters and dies under any acceleration at all,

i noticed the first time i started the car after the test was completed the screen of the turbo timer which is normally GREEN was RED.... so obviously it is sensing something is wrong..

obviously they have stuffed somthing up while putting it all back together.... but what could it have been?

i think they put the coils back in the wrong order they took them off but would this matter?

maybe another wire or something they have mucked up... or left un connected???

anyone have any idea what the problem may be? or has anyone encountered this problem themselves?

any help would be very much appreciated.

A boost leak? thats why the tt is red?

Coil packs can go in any order.

maybe..... it seems to get worse at about 3000rpm, just as the turbo starts to spool... but what ever it is it has been triggered by them doing the compression test, it was fine before that.... now its not.... so i dunno.... any other ideas anyone?

To do a compression test they would of had to take the cross over pipe off, a boost leak would occur if they didnt tighten the clamps up tight enough, god knows it happened to me.

PROBLEM SOLVED.....

ONE OF The HOSE CLAMPS WAS f*kKIN LOOSE AS, YOU COULD SPIN IT WITH YOUR FINGERS, SO OBVIOUSLY AS THE PRESSURE STARTED TO BUILD AT 3000RPM WHEN THE TURBO WAS BOOSTING.... THE PRESSURE WOULD LEAK.... BUT STILL THE TURBO TIMER SCREEN IS STILL RED.... I CAN CHANGE IT TO GREEN BUT IT DOESNT STAY GREEN AND EVERYTIME I TURN THE CAR OFF IT DEFULTS BACK TO RED.... ANY IDEAS....?

ITS A BLITZ full auto turbo timer (FATTX)

I dont know anything about them but it could mean there is still a small leak somewhere else or it needs to be reset. :P

also solved, as far as i know it defaults back to red when its been diconnected..... i now have changed it back to green.... its a little less "worrying" to look at now..... :)

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
