Hi there peoples have a problem not sure if i have detonation or a misfire been having excessive blow by but its been doing that since i had a track day didnt have a problem with pinging or misefire if thats what it is. as soon as full boost hits its wierd sound in one sense it sounds like misfire and then it sounds a jar of ball bearings rattling can some one shed some light on issue >_<

the jar of ball bearings i would guess is pingin gor detonating. Thats very bad. Id consider lowering the boost and make sure u run high octane petrol. If that doesnt minise it try taking timing out. Realyl ur best option is to go to a reputable skyline tuner and have it cheacked.

take it to a dyno and get them to put a fuel pressure tester on and do a power test to see whats going on.

If you dont you will blow your engine to pieces.

BTW if you have blow by allready then you could have smashed some rings. do a leak down test.

my engine had lots of blow by and when i pulled it down 5 pistons had cracked / broken rings

Old chestnut as they say but..........fuel pump failing?

Det is from running too lean, timing to far advanced or carbon hotspots on the pistons [igniting fuel before your sparkplug does].

when i had it dynoed the fuel pump was maxing out took the fuel return line off nothing was going back that was at 25 psi

looks like those cyl are leaking boost into the sump causing the blow by.

id look at re-ringing it and checking the pistons.

Ill be doing that in next few weeks pulling engine out putting total seal iron rings good for hi boost apparently changing rods to to argo rods get them real cheap $800 new replace bearings probably acl and get head flow tested and ported to suit the flow of hks t04z then change to surge tank and dual fuel pumps.

If all goes well hope to crack 400 rwkw fingers crossed

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
