hey guys just wondering if someone could help me out. i've got a r33 with s2 rb25det, 6boost, big garrett and making 400hp but on sunday i got up, started it was running good, then drove to the track for powercruise (wa) and was waiting in line on idle and it decided it had pro cams in it and startd idling lumpy then when i went to take off it stalled n from then on i couldn't get it started agen....... see my problem lol.

i checkd it yesterday and pulled out no.1 plug and it was dry after tryna turn it over few time and made sure it was geting spark witch it was and checked the other ones and they were wet but not dripping... but all getting spark and battery is allil dead but we had jumper leads on but still wouldnt start just turns over.... any ideas would be much apprecaited. cheers

As much as it pained me to read that short paragraph..

Ok so your either missing spark or fuel, the fact that your 2-5 plugs are still wet sort of tells you it's probably missing spark still, despite you saying it was checked. How exactly did you go about checking spark? Have you verified fuel pressure still?

Rip the feed line off the rail and check it primes with ign. I was going to recommend putting the ECU into diags to check for fault codes, but looking at the mods it's probably not running stock management anymore.

As often as it's said for it to die completely like that I would be leaning towards a faulty CAS at this stage, thats pending your answer on how spark was verified.

      We have a huge update coming in the next few months, version 5 of Invision will be released. I'm holding off any changes until after this change as I'm not sure what features will be removed or introduced.

      Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga

      yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
