hey hows it goin? i have a 1989 r32 4door and 2 weeks ago i went for a hills bash with a few mates, and i had a tank of caltex premium instead of the normal bp ultimate, i also had a plate blocking off the bov, i went throu 3/4 of the tank no prolemo and at the end i gave it a goot clutch kick in 2nd and at the next set of lites it started hunting really really badly, so i thugh crap, i took the bov plate out and re connected the bov, still did the same, so the next day i went to my mates and swapped the afm off his 32 still the same it goes from 1000/1100 to 2000/2100rpm. i checked all my intercooler pipes, n still the same, everybody i kno was sorta outta ideas and then a mate came up with the cas and so i went out a bought another one, marked it and swapped it, still the same, :) . so then i went down and got it put on a diagnostic computer, and the bloke said to me intake manifold leak so today i ripped apart the whole intake manifold and replaced both gasgets, and now its still doin it, any ideas?? any help would be much appreciated thankyou also when u first start it up it sits on 2grand for a few mins b4 it starts to hunt, and the throttle position sensor, if u move it forwards the revs come up to 2500 and if u move it back it starts to hunt again, im apsolutly stumped, any help or any1 i could chat to please pm me thanyou

    • I refreshed the OEM injectors with the kit and connected it up. It now ideals okay even with the IACV removed. Driving still has the same cutoff issue like the 550cc injectors so the issue is somewhere else. I bought FPG's Fuel Pump Hanger. I will be installing it next, but it is not as straightforward as I thought it was with my limited wiring knowledge and no instruction on the specific model I purchased (FPG-089). I also got the incorrect billet clamp as I could not find info on the OEM sizing.
    • Stop looking at the garage floor, and turn the radio up a bit louder if there's any strange noises...
    • No. Turbo shuffle and surge/flutter are not the same thing. Specifically, on a GTR, turbo shuffle has a definite meaning. On a GTR, the twin turbos are assumed to be the same thing and to operate the same way, exactly. In reality, they do not. Their exhaust sides are fed and exhaust a little differently, to each other. Their inlet sides are fed and exhausted a little differently, to each other. Consequently, when they are "working" they are often at slightly different points on the compressor map compared to each other. What this means, particularly when coming on boost, is that one of them will spool up and start producing extra flow compared to the other, which will put back pressure on that other compressor, which will push the operating point on that other compressor up (vertically). This will generally result in it bumping up against the surge line on the map, but even if it doesn't, it upsets the compressor and you get this surging shuffle back and forth between them That is "turbo shuffle" on a GTR. It is related to other flutter effects heard on other turbo systems, but it is a particular feature of the somewhat crappy outlet piping arrangement on RB26s. There are plenty of mods that have been attempted with varying levels of success. People have ground out and/or welded more material into the twin turbo pipe to try to prevent it. Extending the divider inside it works, removing material doesn't. There are aftermarket replacement twin turbo pipes available, and these exist pretty mush purely because of this shuffle problem.
    • You can temporarily* use lock collars to keep it in place until you can do the bushes, back the nuts off, slide them in, snug back up. *temporarily is often for ever
    • Thanks for the quick reply. To be clear, when you say turbo shuffle do you mean turbo flutter "stustustu" or referring to something else? I had thought they were the same thing. When I wrote the post my intention was to say it wasn't a flutter/compression surge sound. My understanding was that a flutter sound would be occurring when throttle is released, whereas I can keep the throttle in the same position for this noise
