Is that it? Is there anyway to put it back to stock? Is there no fix for this issue? Why is it doing this now and not wene it was at stock?

Don't be a pusseh. Get an ECU. If cost is a problem, sell skyline and get a barina.

ok i took her for a spin tonight, i took it easy in 1 and 2, 3 i floord it, it when normaly to .5kpa and paused there for a sec, then it started to creep slowley toward 1bar, now heres the thing, it got to 1bar and stopped, then came back to .9bar and sat then i backed off, when it got to 1bar i was doing about 130 so i backed off. so it wont go over 1bar and will come back to .9bar as soon as it gets to 1bar.

i wasnt really looking at the taco at the time but i never reached the rev limiter, so i think it got to 1bar at around 6k

See either two things are still happening here:

1. You have not plumbed it back to the actuator correctly and removed the controller

2. The actuator is bad and/or the wastegate flap

If you dropped back onto a working actuator correctly then you should now only be running 8psi. It shoulnd't be anywhere near 1bar. Remove the actuator and insure the wastegate flap can move freely all the way down and up again, re-install the actuator.

My suggestion would be to "Obtain" the service manual for it, and take a good look at the vac diagrams. I still don't think you have the lines right.

Edit: You said in a previous post that you replaced the actuator, where did you get the new actuator from? You are aware that different actuators can hold different levels of boost yes?

Chances are it's a 1bar actuator you have replaced it with.

with the hoses ive done exactly whatever they’ve said, I changed the actuator because I changed the turbo, the turbo I bought was a s2 and it came with the stock actuator, so when I mean I changed the actuator I realy changed the whole turbo with actuator.

as for the hoses, can anyone give me a pic of what they have? So I can refer to it and copy?

cbf reading the entire thread, I changed one of these back to a stock setup last week...

Looking at your pic the orange and green hoses are arse about.

I don’t think it matters mate, cos there both blocked

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
