I brought this car with the bigger turbo installed already, so your saying because the cars running rich to boost then lean onwards and the general tune being so out that your surprised my motor hasn’t blown?

Yes I am new to this... and iv got to start somewhere though, just need to brush up on my ecu knowledge.... Basicly running bigger turbo, is what you need the new ECU for it to be able to be tuned properly to run right? does this count for any new turbo? or all aftermarket parts in general?

If like the post above said, that I get a stock rb25 turbo and swap it, can I dyno on the stock ecu I have now? or is that not recommended?

Thanks for your help guys...I appreciate it heaps

because you're running so rich pre-boost you'll be getting alot of lag. im going to guess your fuel economy is rubbish?

and also because its a significantly bigger turbo, 7psi is still flowing more air than 12psi on your stock turbo - so yes, you're running lean which may cause engine failure.

you'll realise that even if youve got a stock turbo and you upgrade everything else you will be underpowered because your AFM is sucking in more air than it usually does on a stock setup then pumps out fuel according to set figures in the ecu's map vs. AFM voltage - these figures dont change for the better. your ECU shits itself and just dumps fuel when it hits the AFM voltages are lower RPM's which is why you need a new ECU or at least a remap to tune for the new breathing mods.

let me know if any of that didnt make sence.

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
