what happens is..

no acceleration..

hear turbo winding..

cant get over 2.5 revs or it starts jolting.. like its getting acceleration then loosing it quickly.

Does it 1/6 times i drive the car..

* When i bought the car it did this. He said it was a wiring problem on the AFM, wich it may be.. cause u play with the wiring and the car cuts off*

Just woundering what else this might be caused from if its not the wiring?

Hmmm.....sounds like limp home mode for a faulty AFM, won't let you rev past 2500rpm. My experience was exactly the same, happened fairly infrequently......at first. I killed mine thanks to the use of some normal silcon for a seal between the the AFM and the airfilter. The silcon was not "sensor safe". I know now better!

Cheers

Is it auto or manual?

Sounds like your has blown a cooler piping. Check all the piping to make sure they haven't popped off, reason its surging above 2500rpm is because it builds boost, but the boost doesn't reach the intake manifold as it leaks out somewhere in the piping, then the car over fuels and start surging.

Thats my theory, check the simple things first.

If its not that, then chack AFM.

EDIT: Just re-read your post, does sound more like the AFM than anything. But check all things to be sure. :P

Try borrowing a friends afm and see if there's any difference. If it's not that, do what abu has suggested. Check piping.

Yep thats a good idea actually!

See if that works, saves you buying one and that not being the problem.

You could probably source a 2nd hand one from the forums for fairly cheap. Will keen an eye on the for sale section. If I see one I will post up the for sale thread link. :P

thanks guys, yeah im pretty sure its the afm, i got a microtech to install when i get a new turbo.. so then i wont need my afm, just waiting on loom for the microtech, $300 is cheapest loom iv found so far... dont want to pay that much :nyaanyaa:

Yeah thats good. I reckon AFMs are more trouble then they are worth.

A MAP sensor would be much more reliable in that sense.

Well thats my personal opinion anyways lol

      R32 update from 1990's spec.

      So for the wide band is a Bosch 4.9 correct for the Link G4+ along with a Can bus? Just get the Link gear or is generic ok too? Eg here: LINK LINK DIGITAL WIDEBAND CAN MODULE WITH BOSCH 4.9 SENSOR : KYP Performance House

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By djr81 · Posted

      Bit difficult to follow. Have a look below and see what the standard R32 layout was like. Note there was a restrictor in place immediately before "turbocharged pressure control solenoid" that, if removed, magically got you 1 bar boost.

      I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?
