Hey guys i ask this question becasue i am having trouble with my car. I had my car dyno tuned the other day making only a small amount of power on 10 pound (165 rwhp) this is out of a stock motor with only these few extra mods

It has a M's k&n filter 3 inch exhaust gfb bleed vavle and a gtr fuel pump. THe mechanic that worked on my car said that it was running rich at load load which is ok by me. It also had a greddy blow off vavle that was leaking so i have blanked off the hole.

BUt lately under full load read sideways with the wheels spinning or a quick blast in second the car will rev then basically loose all power at around 6 grand. Once this happens i select nuetral (as the throttle no longer works at all) and the revs drop to around 1000 rpm then the engine will refire and the car will run again.

Or in a different situation the car will rev to around 6 grand then do the same sort of thing but the car will still respond to the accelorator but will cut in and out not like the rev limiter but it will rev then stop and then rev and then stop this only occurs under full acceleration and only seems to happen when im bloody racing someone.

Help me guys its starting to get really embarassing. I also have a malpassi fuel pressure regulator sitting in my bedroom waiting to go on the car in the future.

thanks for any help anyone could offer

Hi,

I'd check these items in this order.

Condidtion of coil packs (damaged coil packs are hard to diagnose on a dyno and can be mistaken for the car running lean hence the need to run a higher richness in tune.

Fuel pump pickup. If you have changed your stock fuel pump for a GTR item, you need to make sure the fuel pickup sock is at the same position as the original otherwise you will experience fuel pickup issues creating fuel surges. (which is very bad - get it looked at asap)

I am pretty sure this will sort you out.

In answer to your question though... yes SR20DET 180's have a boost cut on the standard ecu map.

    • After @Kinkstaah debacle, I'd never want to try and get it right 😛
    • The hood lines up with the fenders. The front bar doesn't perfectly line up with the fenders where the wheel arch is. You have to 'squeeze' the front bar 'in' as it wants to naturally flare out and be longer on the sides. There's a few threads where people notice this when they only swap a GTR style bumper and front bar. Unless you have genuine OEM items - you may be better served getting conversion kits. There are GTT bumpers to fit GTR hoods. There are GTR hoods (non genuine) to fit the GTT bracketry. MAY  
    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
