Hey guys,

Help me figure out this problem,

Ive just put a turbosmart single stage boost tee in my r32 and setted it on 13psi. Every time i boot it, it lags until 5-6000rpm before it gets moving. This also happened with my turbosmart dual stage.

I can't seem to find whats wrong with it!!

help me please im dying lol.. dying for more boost!

dont do it mate. i run mine on 10psi all the time. if i go ova that it is guttless, no more response. drives on a huge flat spot.

i have heard that because the ceramic wheel is soo light, it is ineffecient after 10psi. has little to no inertia compared to a steel wheel. ..just what i have heard

that and the main fact that they break apart in a short period of time with any more than 14psi

What happends when you disconnect the boost controller and put it back to stock?

a boost controller should decrease spool up time, not increase it. afterall all it does is hold the wategate closed for longer.

When i connect it back to stock, it just runs normally. with the fmic and exhaust, it runs a 11psi stock.

no disrespect but thats a load of crap :thumbsup:

inertia has nothing to do with efficiency, just responce time of the turbo

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
