Hi guys

I have an r33 Series 1.5 i recently converted it to manual as it was auto. now when it was auto i was running 10PSI fine car ran great now that i have converted it and replaced computer with the manual comp it will only do stock boost 7Psi i modified stock actuator to go staight to 7 psi so no in between. so when ever i try and boost it over the stock boost to like 8 9 or 10 psi its almost like i hit detination or something like fuel cut. it feels like a bad coil pack as i had that problem when i bought the car but fixed that with split fire coil packs

Also i have a stalling problems mainly in reverse revs just drop and don't come back any ideas??

i have PWR front mount

Split fire coil Packs

Iridium Plugs

lighten fly wheel

blah blah and more

car was dynoed and it made 245HP 183kw on stock boost

any ideas guys car runs fine untill you try and boost over stock boost

Sounds like the stock ECU have a fit @ too much load - try searching with "R&R", happens to just about everyone.

As for the stalling, do you have a ATMO BOV? IF so, thats the cause.

If not, you need to clean the AFM, TPS and so on... there are guides in the DIY section

was it making this power with the auto? when you do a conversion you up the rwhp by about 30 to 40 hp, i done one a few years back and went from 215 rwhp to 250 rwhp with just the conversion and a FMIC. as with all boost problems and no piggy back or after market ecu, sounds like you have hit R&R. need one of these to fix your problem. dunno about the reversing problem.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSP male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSP reducing bush?

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      I fashioned a ramp out of a couple of pieces of 140x35 lumber, to get the bumper up slightly, and then one of these is what I use

      I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.

      You are all good then, I didn't realise the port was in a part you can (have!) remove. Just pull the broken part out, clean it and the threads should be fine. Yes, the whole point about remote mounting is it takes almost all of the vibration out via the flexible hose. You just need a convenient chassis point and a cable tie or 3.

      ..this is the current state of that port. I appreciate the info help (and the link to the Earls thing @Duncan). Though going by that it seems like 1/4 then BSP'ing it and using a bush may work. I don't know where I'd be remote mounting the pressure sender... to... exactly. I assume the idea here is that any vibration is taken up by the semiflexible/flexible hose itself instead of it leveraging against the block directly. I want to believe a stronger, steel bush/adapter would work, but I don't know if that is engineeringly sound or just wishful thinking given the stupendous implications of a leak/failure in this spot. What are the real world risks of dissimilar metals here? It's a 6061 Aluminum block, and I'm talking brass or steel or SS adapters/things.
