hey, im havin dramas! my 33's basicly standard engine wise. pod filter, zorst, front mount and boost tee.

i was running .85 bar and it was running fine.

after about 3 months of no probs it started to get a flatspot down low. i replaced the plugs and fuel filter but it didnt really help.

a few weeks later it got worse.

now when i plant it theres a big flat spot then it sounds like its hitting boost cut, it coughs and then pulls hard as if nothing wrong all the way to the redline?

ive just been winding boost out of it and the problem doesnt go away until im down to 0.5 of a bar(7psi)?

why wouldnt i be able to wind it above stock boost????

anyone have any suggestions or had this problem before?

me-------> :P <-------- my car

I basically had the same problem. Runnin 0.8 bar..

Realised after a while, the boost tee opens up a bit. As in, i recckon the hole gets a tad bigger, so you end up running more boost than previously set.

I noticed after a month or two, that the boost went above the 0.8 bar to 1 bar. Had huge flat spots, and was just shit..

So i turned my boost down to 0.65-0.7 bar, and seemed to worked well.. No flat spots at all

But then again, all i got is, full exhaust, pod.. basically everything else is still stock..

Running rich will also contribute..

Best to get your car tuned if you can afford it..

Let me know how you fix your problem..

    • What Duncan said sounds right. Also, it looks like they only have the driver's mat. Not the rest. Because looking at the diagram: KG4911 is just the mat for the driver. KG4900 is the full set if I'm not mistaken and discontinued.   But, it looks like they may still have the full set for the manual S2. Might be worth checking for the other models as well as they seem slightly different. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/misc/G49 Man, I'm tempted.
    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
