IF ANYONE WANTS FREE HORSE POWER REMOVE THE RESTRICTOR FROM THE INTAKE PIPE LEADING TO THE THE SOLENOID BOOST CONTROLLER. TO FIND IT FEEL ALONG THE LINE AND YOU WILL FEEL A LUMP OF METAL IN THE LITTLE RUBBER HOSE THAT GOES TO THE BOOST CONTROLLER GTR'S HAVE THIS AS WELL.

THE RESTRICTOR LOOKS LIKE A LITTLE ROUND METAL PIECE AITH A HOLE IN THE MIDDLE.

HAVE FUN!!

firstly take caps lock off

secondly it doesnt apply to gtst's

thirdly buy a bleed valve and up the boost properly. if you do some cowboy job like this you could cause the turbo to overboost, resulting in blown turbo and possibly engine damage from a lack of fuel/detonation.

SIKR33, can u provide some pics?? because when i boosted my series 2, i disconnected the boost restricter and fitted a pipe on without the bump in the middle.... its on most nissans and my friend did the same to his 200sx.... im sure i know what ur talking about, but if u can show some pics of what u mean that would be great!!

Boost restrictor? Nope.

And it is not the same as the GTR.

What you need is a restriction on the other side of the solenoid.I've done this and had the boost at 10psi (you still have a two step boost curve tho').

And if you want the boost to be 10psi for good then buy a cheap ass bleeder. Better still an EBC.

ADAM SERIOUSLY IF I WANT TO USE CAPS LOCK I WILL OTHERWISE MIND UR OWN BUSINESS, AND YES I AM AN AIRCRAFT MECHANIC AND THIS IS A RESTRICTOR AND NO IT WONT CAUSE THE TURBO TO OVERBOOST ALL IT DOES IS FREE UP THE VACUUM LINE TO ALLOW MORE BOOST TO BE APPLIED BUT IT WILL ONLY BOOST TO 7.5PSI WITHOUT AN EXHAUST OR WITH AN EXHAUST 10 PSI . GUYS DON'T WORRY THIS WILL NOT HARM UR TURBO OR MOTOR. ITS BETTER THAN CUTTING WIRE 53

You must be one sick aircraft mechanic, did you do word processing as part of your engineering training?

Do you have anything positive to add to the discussion? If not then leave your stupid comments to yourself.

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
