thought id share my current problem with everyone, if you had any ideas to help me out would be appreciated. copy pasted below:

----

Well, I've had my car off the road for 2 weeks now, basically all of which have been spent at my tuner's shop. The problem:

Start her up and will immediatley run very rough, rpm jumping up and down, missing etc. Leave for about 5 minutes and it will idle smoothly instantaneously, or take for a drive and about 5-10 minutes of driving it will act more normal in terms of idle. BUT then it doesnt have any power under load. It becomes flat, you can hear the turbo spool and a rush of air, but goes no where.

What has been done:

He has replaced all engine sensors, AFM, CAS had it on the dyno. Fuel pump, lins, filter all checked as well and cleaned. It is running lean... very lean, so lean the engine doesnt have enough fuel to operate properly, this is occuring on all cylinders.

Higher temperatures seem to make it better, the longer you run the car for the better it gets, but never close to perfect. He had determind that the problem has to lie either with the ECU, or the wiring into it. He is supremely confident that an after market computer will fix this problem. I have access to R32 ECU and loom, and hence this should also fix the problem, once wired up correctly. I need second, third etc opinions though before i go ahead and spend money, hence this post.

I have just recently had the entire intake side off, inlet butterflies remove and sealed up good and propper. exhuast manifold has been ripped off, studs replaced and put back on with the addition of an r33 turbo. Amoutn other things and a full service. Was running fine until about 4-5 days after, then it got progressivly to ths state. It did this before i had this work done, but on a VERY small level, and 10 minutes of driving would see if going perfectly.

hey stevo! there are no boost leaks or anything?

your problem sounds very similar to one of the guys at work who has a VL turbo. had the exact same symptoms and all, weird idle & no power under boost, the boost guage read 9psi and absolutely no extra power, it was the same as driving an NA one.

It tuned out all of the injectors were blocked up with crap & one injector was faulty. injectors were cleaned out/replaced and it ran good again.

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.

      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.
