Major engine probs...........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Recommended Posts

Sup guys... its been awile since i posted last. Alot has happened since then.

Well here we go ... I sold my GTS-t and bought a tuned GTR back in Feb. When I went to go pick it up from the dealer the turbos died right their on the spot. So I had to replace the broken HKS 2540's with a set of Nismo T04E's from my friends wrecked R33.

Anyhow it was in the shop for about a month and a half. Then after a couple weeks driving time and a few good runs the engine starts to knock really bad...(it started knocking on the way down to the track :( under normal conditions!!!) Well I just got it back from the shop. They replaced the crank bearings and conrod bearings with the Nismo lemans bearings and new oil pump and a HICAS cancel kit and a bunch of other stuff. Anyhow it ran great for the first day, then today I took it up to Amori (northern Japan) to get me a new BOV cause my old one is way to small and it started knocking again ......

God D!@@%##!@#% !@#%

Any how I called the shop and they are coming up tomorrow to pick it up.

What should I do? The first bill was 366,968 Yen Ouch!!

I need input....I feel like pulling out all my hair and run around like a chicken with its head cut off. This car is driving me crazy!!!

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
