Rb20det Onevia... It's Sick :(

Hey Lads

As stated my RB20DET Onevia isnt in the best of health at the moment. For some reason the car will not rev above about 3000rpm or so (well when it starts to build up some boost)... Car was running fine for about 200km's after I took delivery of it. But all of a sudden it just lost all power and feeling through the pedal and sounded like it was hitting the rev limiter (although only at 3000rpm)

So I have had all pipes checked and some replaced, I had the intercooler replaced, the fuel pump is fine, the injectors and gaps are fine. So the only thing I have been suggested to check is coil packs. Possibility?

Cheers

sounds like its in 'limp home mode' happened to my car a while back

the ecu isn't receiving a signal from a sensor so it doesn't allow the engine to rev past 3000 to protect it

on my car it was a faulty afm, check all our sensors (o2, afm, aav, etc) an ecu diagnostic will tell you exactly.

My 2 cents

Cheers Mate. AFM was replaced about 2 months ago...

Thing is it will rev past 3000rpm... but only if your not booting it. 3000rpm is all it will go up to with the foot flat, because it wont let it rev once it starts to make boost. If that makes sense?

Ahh so u do step out of the Stagea section hey? :)

Well the standard one died and was re-built.

It hasnt been re-calibrated yet though. So you think it may be that then?

yeah, I do actually.... mind you Im pretty clueless tho.

Id suggest that the afm isnt able to read the large volumes of air being sucked in by that dinkydi Onevia of yours. hence rich and retard.

How is the fuel economy? ratshit?

Nup economy isnt that bad at all... Which is the strange thing. I think its too quick for rich & retard. Although wouldnt it be spilling black smoke out the rear from excess richness if that were the case?

well it could possibly be coil packs. Would make for an easy solution. Pedal looses all feeling at around the 3000rpm mark when the foot is to the floor... So I'm not too sure. Will talk to you about it more on msn

Mate I know everyone else has suggested AFM but I had the exact same problem in my R32 with RB20DET it would cough and splutter at about 3k RPM and putting the foot flat to the floor would do nothing then all of a sudden it would surge back to life it turned out to be my AFM so yeah it seems likely this could be your problem too.

I'm thinking AFM too... This is a re-built one as the old one failed for some unknown reason. Hasnt been re-calibrated yet. Car is at a mechanics today getting a blue slip done. I'll get them to check the AFM for me

      Does RB25DE Neo lower intake work with RB25DET Neo Upper intake manifold?

      By R34_GT to Turbo · Posted

      Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.

      The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
