I left a mates house lastnight in my 32 gtr giving it a bit up the street then was just cruising and the car like backfired and didnt feel right, but the lastweek or so iv had trouble with one of my coilpack connectors the clips broken and it doesnt clip on it just sits there so its been running on like 5cylinders then 6 so its been running like shit most the time, after it done the backfire wouldnt be suprised if it was the shaft comming threw the zorst as i dont have a cat felt like i shot something out the bak, i looked in the mirror into the cars behind me's headlights didnt see any smoke or anything, also looked down at that time and sore that the oil pressure guauge in the dash was at 0 and the red light on so i pulled over and tuned the car off and we towed it home, are these signs of turn failure or is it to do with the coilpack plug or a blow oilpump or something?? thanks

bang + no oil pressure + warning light = not good

if the guage just dropped to zero it could be the sender but if the light is coming on as well then thats bad

Yeh im thinking the same thing, i just looked down and it was on 0 and the light on it doesnt go off, i dont really wanna start it now either, do you think i should get it dropped off at a workshop and see what they rekon?.

      oh they were with that motor, you need to remove the engine to change the spark plugs (don't have to, but it does make it easier)

      Unknown sound similar to BOV on positive boost with partial throttle RB26

      By nouveau_poor · Posted

      I certainly fall into the annoyed camp, but glad to hear that if it's happening at low boost then I'm not likely going to blow a turbo and end up with metal shards in my oil. Just feels like it prevents me from really driving it without hesitation and "peak" performance. Wonder if it's the VCAM, it did an impressive job of shifting the torque curve and faster spool, but maybe now it's "too fast" and there's too much air for how open the throttle is.  Based on some other threads, will also do some reading on synchronizing the actuators. They are the default actuators that come on the Garrett's and I would think they would be set the same coming from the factory, but if the turbos don't actually work exactly the same way at the same time as previously mentioned, it would be worth making sure the actuators are actuating together properly

      I went down this rabbit hole before, ended up sourcing a motor from the UK (I'm in Japan) which also didn't function correctly. With the original motor, I disassembled it and reassembled it and it works somewhat, sometimes. What I could deduce from all my screwing around is that there is calibration of the gears on the inside of the motor and two ramps on the main gear which activate switches that operate the motor and move the sunroof either to retract into the roof or tilt. Where I got stuck was that, it seemed in my case that one or both of the switches that are activated by the ramp on the gear did not always activate and thus the motor did not move, causing it to sometimes not retract or tilt (apologies, I've forgotten which way it didn't work.).  Of course this part is discontinued at Nissan now, it's the same part in the S15 but no other models. I also contacted the manufacturer of the component for schematics - forgot the name, they're based in Gifu - but they declined to share the information due to being bound by an NDA, sadly. Looking through my pictures now, it seems I last had a crack at this in 2022. See, I so kindly wrote "open" and "close" next to the switches. If you figure it out, please do tell me. Those little switches, with the red buttons may need to be replaced.

      It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
