any one experienced what im getting?

k now ive just recently wound my boost up to 11psi and when im pushing my car from down low, it hits 11psi

and if my rpm is below 4k its like it cuts out and comes back to life very quickly, almost like you're giving the

clutch a good ol poke, as soon as the rpm is above 4k it holds 11psi fine and doesnt miss a beat, now its already

got split fires, but im almost wondering if the fuel pump or injectors arent delivering enough fuel.

im still running factory injectors and sadly the ceffys na auto rb20e fuel pump, boss tells me fuel pump will still

deliver required fuel pressure so im unsure, im picking up an 040 soon so i guess ill find out.

the one thing that is making me reconsider that its a fuel prob is that my old factory rb20 skyline held 14psi no

probs and never let me down, i mean that felt like it had more poke than my 25

any one shed any light on my problem

cheers

yeah it is, i mean the car takes 9psi lovely, takes 10 even better but if i squeeze the throttle and make 11 too early, :D and the ghost has pushed my clutch pedal

theres no tune on the car, and my only mods are 3" tbe, front mount, manual boost cont, splitfires and a pod

mmmm indeed aye

mmmm ive heard that standard coil packs fail under higher than 10psi boost, now its not a constant prob, its only every 2-3secs under full load under 4k rpm

i forgot ive only got 5 splitfires and one standard coil

Hey man, i think im in the same boat or the one next to it. I think its my actuator. ill try changing it soon. its kinda like a mini surge aye, then hits you with full power again. I dont think itl be fuel related as it pulls hard to the redline, its just that tiny lil surge.

yeah im still runnin standard ecu but like i said, my 32 handled 14psi easy and that was all standard in terms of ecu, injectors etc, as for the surge itself, it feels like im stabbin the clutch every couple of secs till i hit anything over 4k, mysterys, gota love'm aye

^ +1 or get a PowerFC

You might have been running 14 psi in your R32, but 14 psi on an RB20 turbo is different than 14 psi on an RB25 turbo. (I realise that you are only putting it to 11psi and this is happening, just making the point that they are not equal volumes and therefore not comparable)

It has nothing to do with your injectors or any of the other stuff, its the standard ecu seeing too much air going into the engine, and retarding the timing (R&R= Rich and Retarded)

I've had this, its like it just drops into a lull, and then surges once you get over 4-4.5k.

haha ah i got ya now, yeah ill just drop it back to 10 for now, i got a gt35r going on later so ill need to upgrade comp and tune so ill wait till then to do that, cheers for the help fellas

    • Power is fed to the ECU when the ignition switch is switched to IGN, at terminal 58. That same wire also connects to the ECCS relay to provide both the coil power and the contact side. When the ECU sees power at 58 it switches 16 to earth, which pulls the ECCS relay on, which feeds main power into the ECU and also to a bunch of other things. None of this is directly involved in the fuel pump - it just has to happen first. The ECU will pull terminal 18 to earth when it wants the fuel pump to run. This allows the fuel pump relay to pull in, which switches power on into the rest of the fuel pump control equipment. The fuel pump control regulator is controlled from terminal 104 on the ECU and is switched high or low depending on whether the ECU thinks the pump needs to run high or low. (I don't know which way around that is, and it really doesn't matter right now). The fuel pump control reg is really just a resistor that controls how the power through the pump goes to earth. Either straight to earth, or via the resistor. This part doesn't matter much to us today. The power to the fuel pump relay comes from one of the switched wires from the IGN switch and fusebox that is not shown off to the left of this page. That power runs the fuel pump relay coil and a number of other engine peripherals. Those peripherals don't really matter. All that matters is that there should be power available at the relay when the key is in the right position. At least - I think it's switched. If it's not switched, then power will be there all the time. Either way, if you don't have power there when you need it (ie, key on) then it won't work. The input-output switching side of the relay gains its power from a line similar (but not the same as) the one that feeds the ECU. SO I presume that is switched. Again, if there is not power there when you need it, then you have to look upstream. And... the upshot of all that? There is no "ground" at the fuel pump relay. Where you say: and say that pin 1 Black/Pink is ground, that is not true. The ECU trigger is AF73, is black/pink, and is the "ground". When the ECU says it is. The Blue/White wire is the "constant" 12V to power the relay's coil. And when I say "constant", I mean it may well only be on when the key is on. As I said above. So, when the ECU says not to be running the pump (which is any time after about 3s of switching on, with no crank signal or engine speed yet), then you should see 12V at both 1 and 2. Because the 12V will be all the way up to the ECU terminal 18, waiting to be switched to ground. When the ECU switches the fuel pump on, then AF73 should go to ~0V, having been switched to ground and the voltage drop now occurring over the relay coil. 3 & 5 are easy. 5 is the other "constant" 12V, that may or may not be constant but will very much want to be there when the key is on. Same as above. 3 goes to the pump. There should never be 12V visible at 3 unless the relay is pulled in. As to where the immobiliser might have been spliced into all this.... It will either have to be on wire AF70 or AF71, whichever is most accessible near the alarm. Given that all those wires run from the engine bay fusebox or the ECU, via the driver's area to the rear of the car, it could really be either. AF70 will be the same colour from the appropriate fuse all the way to the pump. If it has been cut and is dangling, you should be able to see that  in that area somewhere. Same with AF71.   You really should be able to force the pump to run. Just jump 12V onto AF72 and it should go. That will prove that the pump itself is willing to go along with you when you sort out the upstream. You really should be able to force the fuel pump relay on. Just short AF73 to earth when the key is on. If the pump runs, then the relay is fine, and all the power up to both inputs on the relay is fine. If it doesn't run (and given that you checked the relay itself actually works) then one or both of AF70 and AF71 are not bringing power to the game.
    • @PranK can you elaborate further on the Colorlock Dye? The website has a lot of options. I'm sure you've done all the research. I have old genuine leather seats that I have bought various refurbing creams and such, but never a dye. Any info on how long it lasts? Does it wash out? Is it a hassle? What product do I actually need? Am I just buying this kit and following the steps the page advises or something else? https://www.colourlockaustralia.com.au/colourlock-leather-repair-kit-dye.html
    • These going to fit over the big brakes? I'd be reeeeeeeeaaaall hesitant to believe so.
    • The leather work properly stunned me. Again, I am thankful that the leather was in such good condition. I'm not sure what the indent is at the top of the passenger seat. Like somebody was sitting in it with a golf ball between their shoulders. The wheels are more grey than silver now and missing a lot of gloss.  Here's one with nice silver wheels.
    • It's amazing how well the works on the leather seats. Looks mint. Looking forward to see how you go with the wheels. They do suit the car! Gutter rash is easy to fix, but I'm curious about getting the colour done.
