Hey guys

I recently got into a bit of a bang with my R32 GTR , but the only thing damaged was the front bar... none of the internals got hurt

Now, driving the car to the panel beaters i had NO reponse, i couldnt hit 3k rpm without flooring it, the car was making the most awful noise like it was struggling massively... now, remember none of the internals were damaged at all, even the front mount was fine...

When u push it, it'll backfire, but it just keeps making this Pttt ptttt ptttt ptttt pttt noise and will never hit boost.

WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH MY CAR!???!?!?!!?!?!?

I was told it could be the crank angle sensor? and that they move slightly and it totally screws up ur car? Or the CAS connection?

HELP please !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

on inspection, the intercooler was fine, just pushed in a little and moved to one side, but nothing major? could i not be seeing something?

Broken IC would be my guess too.. like Craved said if it's moved across something would have to bend/loosen for it to move.

Cheers boys... i feel much better now... cause i know i can just tig weld anything if there are holes.... or if its the clamps i'll just get new silicon hoses :D

THANKS A HEAP BOYS!

(and girls if any replied) :sorcerer: :sorcerer:

The engine will still rev past 3 if one of the pipes comes loose or there is a small hole. Check to make sure your AFM is connected properly and spray some aerostart around all the pipe connections while the engine is running just to be sure.

Also check your Catalytic converter to make sure it might not be blocked. Might just be a coincedence that it happened at the same time as the accident.

As for the CAS...why would it be the CAS when there was hardly even damage to the bumper?

cool... cheers man

as for the CAS, the panel beater didnt know what he was on about

it turned out to be a gash in the cooler.... i cbf getting it welded.... so i'm gonna chuck it out and get another FMIC

(btw the one i'm chucking out is a TRUST FMIC) :D

cheers again boys

Yeah id say it sounds like an AFM metre problem. My friend has a 32 GTR and his connection was loose and it wouldnt let him rev past about 3000rpm.

Chris

he just said that it was a gash in the intercooler. so it wasn't afm.

cool... cheers man

How bad is the damage on the trust FMIC your throwing out..?

Weldable?

obviously you don't think so since you were prepared to tig up damage..

    • Old Son, did you re-use the Holden ABS in the new shell or try a different module?
    • Yeah, nah. I had the actuator rod off it today. The arm will not move at all. Neither out, nor in. Yeah, you'd think so, but I've been thinking about that. Even when the actuator rod fell all the way off at the beginning of this saga, it would build more boost and faster in lower gears than it would in higher gears, and you'd think that that was the opposite of what should happen. But I strongly suspect that there is a thing with the gearing getting the revs to rise faster, that there must be some transient effect with the gas flow rate rising quickly, that you don't get with the more steady state case of the higher gears. Keep in mind - the gate is not shut in either of my weirdnesses. So things are not "normal". We normally think about a turbo spooling up (below the wastegate target) with the gate shut. I have all sorts of mental models running now where the gate is a little bit open, and having it stuck open allowing gas out while it should be going through the turbine has all sorts of weird effects (in these mental models). I'm thinking in the higher gears, the ex mani pressure builds to the point where enough gases spill out the wastegate to just prevent the pressure rising much more at all, or just creeping up, all the whole the revs are increasing and getting closer to the point where a gear shift becomes necessary.
    • Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up
    • Does anyone know ow what these two plugs are for and if they should be unplugged? Just put the dash back together and can't remember if these were plugged in before or unplugged! (Blue and white plugs) 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Did some FASTing ...got the impression that the actual part# was a moot point ; seems all of these hardlines for coolant are discontinued/NLA... like, I take it you're after the hardline that bolts onto to the manifold...that's NLA according to amayama & nengun .... ...just to clear up some confusion, they typically mounted the AAC valve to the intake manifold somewhere near a coolant passage, so the body of the valve heats up & holds it open when engine's up to temp - no coolant flows through the valve, it's a mechanical, thermal connection.
