A friend of mine has an R33 GTSt 97 model, I drove it the other day and it seems to bogs down once it reaches 2000rpm then the rpm increases very slowly. as if something is holding it back.

he changed fuel filter. and the turbo seems to be boosting fine.

I was thinking the throttle body maybe dirty, what do you guys think?? any ideas

vendetta...that signature would have to be one of the most rediculous things i have read on a car site. makes you look like like an idiot before people even get a chance to judge you...

on the topic of the thread, it could be the AFM or even the air filter if it is dirty and not enough air getting through. Also maybe injectors dirty - run some injector cleaner through before pulling things apart in case its something small. try fiddling with the throttle polition sensor (there's a thread on it) as well as this could be the problem.

  • 3 months later...

we took everything apart and the rubber hose coming from the turbo to the pod filter was loose we tightened it but still. when driving it i feel like there is too much air going in or something.

it goes a bit better but still it still feels abit ristricted in power. we changed the spark plugs, cleaned the afm, changed the ecu .

next step is changing the coil packs. any other suggestions.

i still think its a boost leak

check the zaust manifold... sometimes they can crack

but i dont think ive ever heard of a standard one cracking

could also be loose from the block or a gasket is blown somewhere.... check both sides of the equation.... but if its when its on boost id say 90% chance its a boost leak or something similar ahmed

took everything on the right hand side of the engine apart and put it back together, I noticed there is a minimal amount of oil in front of the turbo but there is no shaft play or anything. and defenitly there is no air leak cause i checked everything

the car has improved but still i feel like the engine is restricted its not as free as it should be. tomorrow we'll have a look at the fuel side of things (fuel rail, injectors)

anyone have any other ideas??

I read something about the o2 sensor sometimes becoming faulty where is that located and can that be the problem ?

    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
