hey guys the popping on de acceleration has been getting worse for awhile and last night at the drags made it ten times worse. Orginally i thought the cat had shit itself but i had it on a hoist today and the exhuast is all good. And there appears to be no exhaust leaks and no intake leaks and it is holding boost what can course this poping. It appears to be down on power as well. I am hoping that a spike to 16 psi last night down the strip hasnt affected the stock turbo.

its normal to have abit of popping, my pops it ass off normally :)

If you think its excessive or getting worse i would check for intake leaks, just simple things like tight hose clamps and all vacuum hoses are on tight with cable ties. What bov are you running? Could that be leaking slightly?

Also what ecu are you running? stock or tuned?

if the turbo is still boosting fine without funny noises it should be ok, a quick 16psi spike wont hurt it, continous high boost will.

Also remember it is summer now, turbo cars hate the heat so its normal to have a significant drop in power during the day aswell.

lol yeah its good but mine sounds pritty bad more like a old shit box back firing but instead its poping lol i will check the cooler pipes and extra tomorrow. It has a stock ecu but its been retuned by toshi and i am running a stock bov

check your plugs for fouling,

my gtr runs pretty rich, and starts backfiring after about 2 months, especially in summer, the plugs will soot up, i just clean them and problem gone........

hope this works for ya

i will check the plugs there only alittle bit over a month old and the o2 sensor is good its not old at all and tested it a couple of weeks ago and i would mind the pop if it wasnt to excessive but it is quiet bad

I had a problem similar to this turned out to be a leaking o-ring in an injector.

however it can be a number of things a small vacume leak, plugs, afm, 02 sensor. since plugs and 02 sensor are newish i would look at clean afm, then change fuel filter (never know) then look for any fuel leaks

    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
