Hi ther

friends today i faced a bad sitewation my gts33 was runing 7 psi with few polt ons like exhust

and filter with intercooler and also safc2 with gtr fuel pump and sard fuel regulator

it was runing verry well then i had a race this day and i opend a boost to 14.7 and it start in full throtell

poping and seems like fuel cut then i reprogramed the safc2 and reduced the map frome -10 to -20 for all rpms in high throtell (i thout i had to change the intake pressure like HKS FCD) and also still poping so plz what dose the problem cam fome?

do i need to add more fuel or what?

and if i want to run that boost ( 1 bar) what should i do with fuel regulator and safc2?

or should i change the ecu to power fc?

plz my car stuk in home :banana:

I got a headache from reading that....anyhoo,

Running that amout of boost in the standard turbo wont last long (you havent mentioned turbo upgrade with mods?)

Turn the boost back down if you want the standard turbo to last a bit longer.

If you can get your hands on powerFC I'd say go for the upgrade.

Otherwise get it to a good tuner and get it all set up and tuned professionally.

thnx guys for hellp and EVILE thanx my friend the turbo is stock one with no modefecations

the problem is if i have safc2 and fuel regulator and fuel pump with IC and EXHUst

why i cant get 1 bar ? and i was told by some guys that when am making the #s on safc2 less than 0 like -

it will let me go more boost like ( titing the regulator and puting -15% on safc2 ) will let me go for 13 psi

so does it like that problem tuning the safc2 or its boost cut?

and sorry for disturbing all yaa

You can't run 1 bar cause the stock turbo will not handle it for long! Its been proven many times, at anything over 12psi they all blow eventually. Could be days, could be months, but they all let go

thanks guys i think i will reset boost to 12psi and cheek a/f ratios

and also some guys say that it retards too much so i should do 12psi or 10psi

thanks dears

Ok I have experienced the exact same problem..

And guess what it is!!! Rich and Retard on the ECU and Also RB25DET stock ECUs have a limit to how much air you get, if you reach the limit you will get a cut (complete loss of all power for like 1-2 seconds).

When you change the values on your SAFC to -15% what your doing is telling the ECU that your are getting 15% less air than you really are so your bassicly delaying the air flow cut by 15%. Now the first thing your going to do after reading this is NEVER EVER EVER do that again unless you want holes in your pistons. -15% to an air fuel mixture would take 12:1 to 13.8:1 and I bet that its only due to Rich and Retard that this isn't causing engine problems. Seriously don't touch your SAFC unless you know what your doing, take it to a dyno tuner for a quick tune, prolly cost you about $100-$200 just to get the right settings on your SAFC.

Ok now I will cover Rich and Retard, because your running 14.7psi your prolly getting pinging, might not be hear-able but you would be getting it, when that happends the ECU richens up the fuel mixture and retards the timing which gives you poping sounds in your exhaust because the timing is probably so retarted that the air and fuel is still igniting when the exhaust valves open.

What you need is new management of some sort, SAFC's just don't cut it. I am still on the search for cheap management to fix these issues but havn't gotten any where yet. You can make this less of an issue by always running good fuel, experiment with different fuels see what works better, make sure you use 98 octane, this will stop the poping etc. Also take your car to a dyno tuner for the SAFC they might be able to make it better.

Lower your boost, 11-12psi at the absolute most. Trust me with your setup you will get more power on 11psi than on 14.7

Hi dear Finny and thnx alot its really what you said :P

and i will return boost to 11psi and i will use A/F ratio monitor i will

git it from friend its wide band and also i can read that ratios

and i will tune the safc2 to be in 13.0 A/F if i didn`t makw it

i will bring it to dyno tuners ( thay are expensive in our countrey its like

300$ or more ) but i hope my pisons still good

    • You know how your car rolled through a fence in your last jacking escapade? Scissor jacks increase the likely hood of that sort of thing happening immensely!
    • http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.
    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
