but thats the bit i dont get?? it pours fuel out the back like it's got a free fuel card...

just because its running rich doesnt mean its got enough fuel for the air you provide the engine at those boost levels

at 18psi on a gtr with a stock fuel system, something clearly over its capasity where it be injectors or fuel pump

put the boost to 15psi or somewhere it doesnt ping and take it to a dyno place to see whats going on

yeah coz of the dust ay?? its not running 18, just every now and than it spikes, i run it at 10 psi now days just to be sure, that way it only spikes to 15 pound, haha

yeah need to take it to a dyno or hoist to see wtf is going on

oh and is there any way a boost controller could be making to turbo's lag??? like not hitting 15 psi till 4.5-5k or so?? thats pretty late for stock turbo's isnt it?

yes i know, my car is doing some f**ked up shit!!

start saving your money. If you continue to disrespect your rb26 like this your going to need a rebuild.

says the bloke who's pic is of him doing a burnout... haha

i dont run the thing on 18psi, im just saying there is something wrong with my boost controller and its starting to let it spike, thats why i've turned it back to 10 pound so if it does happen to spike, it's still safe.

going to look at it over chrissy break and watch my boost gage like a hawk in between.

the difference between his and yours, is that his is already a forged motor and it has been tuned to suit all the modifications made to it.

yeah thats why im only running 10 pound atm.

so im looking for nismo fuel pump and till then just gonna drive it around on low boost, then look at getting bigger turbo's!! and see if i can blow my engine...

and i've seen plenty of 'built' engines blow from doing burnouts. but that ussually the drivers, to me thats showing real disrespect to your car... but each to there own, im sure there worse things, like running your car lean, haha

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
