hey guys

iv got another problem with my gtr and it pissing me off!

ok iv searched and can find what im looking for, except the s13 below my tread has the same problem,

my car is running 15psi with the restictor out, and only has exhaust and 2 airpods.

the car runs fine for bout 20 mins and wont boost past 10psi, and also the bovs are going nuts sounds like there surginging un till i het 3000rpm, i no my afms are fine, tested them and have pretty similar volts.

can some please help me?? i would really aprectate it..

OK IF ANYONE CAN SOLVE THIS PROBLEM I WILL SHOUT A SLAB OF WHAT EVER U WANT.

C'MON GUYS SOMEONES GOTA NO

thx in advance

^ Ive got the same problem same mods aswell. Im keen to find out to. :blush:

Are you AFM's maxing out? Could be boost cut at 15psi

The fact that it happens after 20 minutes suggests that its probably a vibration or heat issue rather than something like a broken hose or connector.

Are you running pods? are they supported by a bracket?

It could be the connector on the AFM's, the solder inside the afm is known to crack with vibration but seem fine at idle.

Just testing the voltage at idle isn't really a measure of how well your AFM's are working.

no sorry ive explained it wrong

compressor surging known and heard as "fluttler" when coming on boost is a result of the pressure in the manifold going past the compressors effiency, ie the compress map says in the best scenario it can flowing at best 16psi of compression, but for some reason the manifold pressure is say 18psi so the compressors surge resulting in vl turbo style flutter on boost, ie: the compressors are out of effeiency and surging / erractic operation / wobble

comrpessor chuffing is usually caused by aftermarket pods and piping kits to the stock turbo's. basically the air reverbates and chops past the airflow meter, so it runs like a bitch. this is common with say 2530s and custom piping and pods. not very common on stockers i dont think, but certainly possible

and also it mat not do it for couple of days and then suddenly it will come back, iv also re-solder the afms, and plug one of those ecu data things in and the afms seemed to be fine, but i no my rear 02 sensor is stuffed and will b replacng asap!

my advice would be to drop the restictor or whatever you have done and go back to direct actuator mode, that is stock boost. that way it should be a clean slate. then if you can replicate the problem then something is wrong with turbo setup or intake.

if #1

compress surging, try lowering the boost, see if that helps

the compressors shouldnt surge under normal conditions

could indicate compressor failure, out of balanace or chopped wheels

again assuming the same problem occurs on say stock boost

if #2

try seperating the pods or putting a shitload of pipework between one of them or both them, try like some good sized pool shop vacuum hose for one of both of the pods, try bending the pods intake pipes. anything to alter the intake path of air to the compressor inlet snout

again this is only what i think, it doesnt mean im write or correct at all

umm i use to have the hks pod filters with different adaptters and still had the same problem, i dont have the resrictor coz as the car came with out one,

but what i understand is y dose go away after i restart the car for a few seconds?

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
