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..

    • This car has run before on this z32 ecu can get the part number for you, I have tried with no AFM it didn’t change anything, I compression tested today 140-150 across all 6 cylinders, also set fuel pressure to 43psi. The only weird thing was cylinder 1 plug was black and fouled other 5 cylinders were just wet with fuel. Spun cas by hand and confirmed injectors are clicking 
    • Since you came here to ask for help, have you thought about answering our questions, that might help us lead you to why it was skipping, or have you given up on getting advice?
    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...
