hey guys... i actually was under the name engoR33-300 but somehow forgot my password and things i couldnt get right so im under this one now..... n e ways... i drive a r33 gts-t 93' model with a series 2 engine in her.... my mods are... t04e garret turbo, exractors, 3 1/2 inch exaust full, 38mm external wastegate, hks front mount intercooler, boshe 044 fuel pump, 760cc injectors, turbosmart stage 1 bov, and LT 12 microtech E.C.U..... my problem is that with all these mods... i am running a very very low amount of power.. and wondering what could be holding it back... it ran on the dyno 140rwkw on 5 psi.... i plan to boost it to 12psi.... but is this E.C.U related issues??..

cheers

but thats the same thing.... im getting confused here ey...

how can you have extractors on a turbo'd car!! do you mean ur manifold has had its piping "enlarged" ??? do you mean you have a bigger "dump" pipe? or "front" pipe??

extractors are what you call larger exhaust manifolds on NON-turbo cars...eg, all the commodores/fords etc etc. they run from the block down to the cat.

am i gunna get flammed for my confused thoughts here?? or am i not alone? haha

Extractors are for NA (naturally aspirated) cars with no turbos. It sits on the head and goes into a dump/front and onto the exhaust.

Turbo cars have a manifold, on which the turbo sits on, and the exhaust sits on the back of the turbo.

For turbo cars you cant get extractors, but you can get different forums of manifold, say tuned length, log style, high mount or low mount log style, high mount or low mount tuned length, and the obvious ones like polished which yeh is obviously just polished lol

Hope that helps a bit.

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
