ok bought new hose clamps retensioned everything and checked all the pipes... went for a drive was still running somewhat unwell everytime i got to about 4000-5000rpm the bovs would just go off even with my foot flat?? does this still point to a boostleak issue?

edit: just pulled off bov's and there is a difference between the 2... one is marginally stiffer than the other ?>

cheers chad will do tomorrow.. had enough for today.. just took it for a run with bov's off and pipes blocked... still running like a pig... guess ill have to look harder and check absolutely everything.. man this is pissing me off

ok here is where i am at... double checked all ic piping, removed and blocked bov's plus vacumes. checked nearly every other vacume hose... not popping asmuch but still feels gutless and its still struggling under boost... even thought bov's are removed it still lets off and makes a chatting noise even when im giving it throttle.. and no this sound isnt flutter its a slow chuw chow chew chow sound

**edit** just took an old sau member crimmo for a cruise and he said it sounds ignition relation.. injector duty was down around 25%.. he said i may have fried my plugs at mallala or my coilpacks are cooked... anyone got some coil packs i can borrow for a couple hours?

Mark, I've got 7 or so coil-packs lying around - not sure if they're all 100% good, I did replace them for a reason but you're welcome to borrow. As a side note - have you checked your vacuum/boost pipes that run to the wastegate cans? When I had my 32 GTR one of mine blocked up and caused the BOV(s) to flutter continuously under boost (and also caused over-boosting), wasn't exactly easy to diagnose though.

u could just be a life saver.... coil pack borrow would be amazing more than happy to exhange a 6 pack.

by vacume boost pipes?? you mean the vacume pipes that go to the actuators? they were replaced a few 1000 kms ago but ill check tomorrow when i check the plugs.. the symptoms your talking about sound soooo simialr to whats goin on with my baby atm

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
