hey guys got my turbo put on, all tuned on 16.5 psi running 251rwk with all supporting mods.

the turbo does hold boost but as soon as u hit 5,000rpm it just hesitates and drops off to 5 psi. can hear a hiss but cant find it.

took my car for a drive tonight and didnt feel as strong at higher rpm.

boosted it again and it got way worse. in 3rd gear soon as i hit full boost car feels like the brakes are being applied and wont rev anymore.

the first couple of times when its just warming up is fine then it does it. boost was dropping down to 4-5 psi.

turbo is new. checked all my hoses and inspected the turbo and its perfect still.

only thing i can think of what i did last week i wasnt paying attention and i ran up a rounded gutter and cracked my front bar. been doing it since then. few days ago

have you checked all your pipework? sounds like a leak from something.... try getting under the hood and flicking the throttle cable see if you can hear where the leaks coming from.... as for the car feeling like the brakes have been applied that souds like saftey mode so you dont blow it up....

ok fixed the hose problem but it still drops off boost sometimes.

it only does it when its been thrashed after about 6 times or so.

spoke to my tuner and he thinks it could be my hdi boost controller solenoid getting way too hot. or an actuator issue?

thoughts and experiences if anyones had a ebc prob or actuator prob?

today i further inspected the problem and still couldnt find the prob.

so far i have done a boost leak test.

changed boost controllers

took off front bar inspected cooler and silicon piping

changed all boost line hoses from actuator.

only thing i can think of is maybe the intake pipe is sucking closed.

cause it only does it when u hit the throttle hard on down gear, or at top end as i change hard into 4th. and sometimes 3rd

it does sound like a boost leak coz at high rpm it drops but if it was it would have given way and popped off hope u work it out! Try connecting a hose straight from the wastegate to the intercooler piping and see what it does then?

ive done everything and soon as the car gets hot after a couple of runs its still doing it.

i done rev210's intake pipe mod also, so i dont know what to do.

only thing i can think of is not enough preload on the actuator. its set to half a hole at the moment.

another theory. if i have faulty plugs and when the car gets real hot would it cause less combustion thus the major boost drop?

mate i had simular prob wif my gtr first noticed it on a trip to melb hit full boost than dropped to half and it would only half boost up after that untill i restarted the car then it was normal again its happined about 3 times now but they have been on really hot days so i just thought it was the ecu in safe mode or something

I'd be doing another boost leak test - if you ran up a gutter and cracked your front bar youve proabbly done somthing to your FMIC or piping. Stick a can of baked beans in the intake and pump it up with an air compressor. make sure you go under the car to listen for leaks too.

ive taken the fmic out completely and inspected the piping and tanks. they are perfect

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
