R32 std boost on Australian delivered car

page EN-23 in workshop manual

"remove the intake manifold canister hose, place a cap on the hose, Connect test hose to intake manifold and attach pressure gauge.

"when engine operation check is performed check the pressure does not rise above 0.8 to 0.9 kg/cm^2 (11-13psi)"

In practice mine runs 8 psi with stock exhaust and 10.5 with a cat back

Hope this is of some help

Cheers Alex

mine ( r33 gtr ) runs 14.5psi with turbo back exhaust on stocc boost solinoid , 4th gear uphill it hold 15 psi . i have an engine manual but it doesnt specify how much boost it should have . it does say at what pressure the actuators should open the wastegate and thats within specs . just wondering why it boosts so high .

8 psi thats a bit low alex , i thought around 12 but r32 may be different to r33 .

My car was a dead stock unit when I brought it in from japan. Stock airbox, exhaust, like it was just from the factory. It was making around 6-7psi, then I added a cat back exhaust and it picked up to about 8psi. I then put in a ebc and ran 12psi on the stock turbo day in and out and I sold it when I upgraded to the td06. The turbo was still in excellent condition, thats about the max boost I would run on a day to day basis on the stock unit.

rob77 was that a gtst, rb25det or gtr , rb26dett ? stock gtrs run a lot more boost like 11 - 12 psi i thought ( thats bog stock ).

mine will hold 15 psi on 4 th gear uphill no probs .

Would this sound right? on my car i have cat back exuast 3 1/4 inch.. with pod filter and heat shiled..all stock and im getting about .5 bar and then at 5000 rpm it boosts to .7 bar.. so from about 7.4 psi it goes up to about 10 psi at 5000.. is that normal for r33 gtst.. its a 05 model with series 2 engine..

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
