hey just a quick question, a mate of mines has a r33 with aftermarket turbo, intercooler, exhaust, computer, 800hp fuel pump and lately its started to run rough, he had to put 95octane fuel in it the other day and thats when the probs started, weve changed the fuel filter and plugs but still when it stars to boost it starts sttuering like its havin fuel surge and backfiring, has any one else had similar problem? what should we check next? injectors or coils??? cheers

thats exactly what my car is doing right now

it did it when i had my old 2 litre in it and i swapped in a neo and it still does it

the only things that are the same are the fuel pump,which i changed,the boost controller which i am changing tomorrow,and the maf.

so my guess is that the boost controller or the afm is not working properly,because it only happens under boost.

so try checking the boost controller and the maf

i will update if this thread when i figure the problem out,but i am fairly certain it is my old shitty manual boost controller sticking.

cheers!

yeh its got aftermarket ecu and recently had full tune by imports101, could it be a problem with the stock injectors? its my mates car, me and him both had to fill his skyline up and my ss up with 95octane wich our cars dont run too good on, after that i had similar probs with the ss but i changed the plugs and and me valkve springs at the same time n it came all good but the skyline just gettin worse

when you changed the plugs in the skyline, what plugs did you use?

and what gap?

May be a stupid question but have you got rid of the 95 fuel yet?

if not, maybe buy a bottle of good octane booster and dump that in the tank with the 95.. it should bring it's rating back up to 98 or so.

we didnt check the gap we just got some new ngk ones from repco and just assumed the gap would be fine, yeh we drained the fuel and ran injector clean through the engine and now are runnin it on 98octane ith octane booster,

    • Let me assume that the concern over a manual ECU is that the NeoDET that you have was an auto and has an auto ECU. That ECU will not be a problem, but you WILL have to Nistune it. And you would have to Nistune it even if you had a manual ECU, because the turbo ECUs will shit the bed if they do not have all the things that they were told they have to have, to be happy. The big one being the TCS CU, which you won't have in your car. Anyway, with an auto ECU (which I have running my originally auto NeoDET in an R32) Nistune allows you to put in a Stagea image which doesn't panic about the absent TCS, and allows you to override a whle bunch of other annoyances that would otherwise see the check engine light on 100% of the time. Also, you can't wind up the power very far on the stock NeoDET ECUs without Nistune, because the boost sensor gets in the way. Nistune allows you to push that problem much further up the dial. Do you even have the boost sensor with the engine? Without it, you are SOL and will need an aftermarket ECU (or to find a sensor somewhere, god knows where). I can't tell you what the wiring loom differences are in a 34. But what Duncan said above needs to be considered. When you say "loom", does that include the transmission loom? Because you will need to swap out the auto tranny loom for the equivalent manual loom, and get rid of the neutral/park start interlock (basically hot wire it).
    • I have had the r3c in for years now, maybe close to 7 years and it has never missed a beat, anyone can drive it. Super easy to drive around town, the hotter it gets does get a little hard but it holds the power easy as 
    • Shit thing to find eh? I guess the big issue is that whatever "fix" you do now, it might slow the rust down but won't fix it. I just wanted to add that in no way is fixing sheet metal in 3 dimensions the place to start with welding....that is a pro only job because its too hard to work out where things should be, let alone doing a clean enough job that it can look OK and still be strong too.  I needed to get a new rear quarter panel on the GTR and it took a pro weeks to get the old one off cleanly, new one on in the right place and looking somewhat like it should have with most of the previous connecting panels in place. Gluing a couple of bits of metal together with a welder in the garage is doable, but that is totally different to doing panel  replacement
    • This seems to be a very popular swap since all the turbo skyline prices went through the roof! I'll let someone more familiar chime in, but I understand that yes you probably want to swap the loom in to swap out the auto TCM stuff. You should not assume everything just plugs in either, you need to check at least the ECU wiring diagram for any differences at the plug at the left headlight and probably the ones near the ECU that join the dash loom too  
    • hows it fellas, my first post here which seems crazy cos half the forums i read are like the same age as me haha. to make a long story short ive got an r34 sedan (rb25de neo auto) which im swapping to a s0/s1? rb25det, r33 big box and nismo gt pro lsd. i have the motor and gearbox all bolted up outside the car, old motor and trans out. i bought the motor with stock ecu and loom, do i switch over to that? or will it be easier to get a r34 manual ecu and keep the loom if thats even possible.  also engine mounts look different, anything else thats different or incompatible? cheers, hope this all makes sense Paddy
