Ok. I just had a prick of a day trying to figure out what might've gone wrong with my 93 manual R33.

Modifications it got:

Z32 AFM

850cc high flowed injectors

FMIC

ATR43G3 turbo built by my self. (lol)

Full exhaust

EBC

Ok. The car was good ok after every thing's installed with a based map. The frist 2x runs were perfect and car managed a smooth 223rwkws at 10psi. Then it started to drop off and rumped back at full throttle. It kept on doing that for the rest of the day. Boost curve us early and straight, A/F is normal.

How ever It doesn't play up all the time on road. I'm wondering if any one had this issue before or know what this might be. Thanks.

Boost cruve at 15psi:

PS. I made a typo at the title. Its suppose to be Weird not wired.

could be a few things, its not the tuning. We just ran out of time and i could not diagnose it before we had to shut shop (prior arrangments) I reckon we will fit metal intake pipe and scope the crank angle sensor etc. Car has a history of electrical issues but hopefully Should be an easy fix.

Edited by URAS
assuming you checked base timing? were the knock readings significantly lower where the power dropped?

knock is not an issue as all timing maps had retard removed.

yer but if the cas is the issue and the drop in power is from a lot less timing than whats in the map then knock levels will be lower throughout that range too. doesnt have to be pinging to produce knock numbers, with the stock sensors anyway

its irrelevant either way. Im sure if we have more than 5mins to look at it we will have it sorted asap.

it must be something simple and electrical, I have the same housings on my R34. sure mine isn't holding booste yet either. But that is purely due to me refitting the stock actuator and the second it hit the set booste pressure it would open but wasnt strong enough to pull it self shut again when using some decent revs. Once my 14psi actuator is fitted and tuned it should be an absolute animal.

i would highly suggest any 1 planning to do a highflow to go for the new 0.60 housing that Stao has made up. In it's current state the second the car hits 4.5kRPM in second gear it wants to light 235x18's (good tyres). it didn't feel like that with the OP6 highflow.

Hey there, i had boost issues as well and i was just wondering, So if i changed my actuator... would my boost make a diffrence? because atm im running my greddy profec spec-B II and a stock actuator on hypergear highflow runing on 17.5 psi.

That is a sheet to show where the problem is. I'm sourcing information to fixthe car issue, so I could know what parts I need to replace and make life easier for Trent and my self next week.

I should've never bought a cheap crappy looking car and trusted the previous owner that its mechanically A1. end up spending the heaps of $$$$ fixing bits and pieces, and now this f*ken engine is knocking.

Here's the 226rwkws 10psi tune based on the same turbo on a healthy R33 if you like to see.

    • So I'll put filler past the repair area a bit to make sure I don't miss anything. Then I'll block it until it's almost level, put the guidecoat, then keep blocking until it's gone. Then it's still wavy.  In regards to hitting the panel, I saw this video might give more context - Skip to 0:47 he knocks it down. But yeah I'm sanding until the guidecoat is gone then checking because otherwise my filler is still well above the bodyline. Unless what you're saying is I should put guidecoat around it early, surrounding the filler then stip once it's gone?
    • I refreshed the OEM injectors with the kit and connected it up. It now ideals okay even with the IACV removed. Driving still has the same cutoff issue like the 550cc injectors so the issue is somewhere else. I bought FPG's Fuel Pump Hanger. I will be installing it next, but it is not as straightforward as I thought it was with my limited wiring knowledge and no instruction on the specific model I purchased (FPG-089). I also got the incorrect billet clamp as I could not find info on the OEM sizing.
    • Stop looking at the garage floor, and turn the radio up a bit louder if there's any strange noises...
    • No. Turbo shuffle and surge/flutter are not the same thing. Specifically, on a GTR, turbo shuffle has a definite meaning. On a GTR, the twin turbos are assumed to be the same thing and to operate the same way, exactly. In reality, they do not. Their exhaust sides are fed and exhaust a little differently, to each other. Their inlet sides are fed and exhausted a little differently, to each other. Consequently, when they are "working" they are often at slightly different points on the compressor map compared to each other. What this means, particularly when coming on boost, is that one of them will spool up and start producing extra flow compared to the other, which will put back pressure on that other compressor, which will push the operating point on that other compressor up (vertically). This will generally result in it bumping up against the surge line on the map, but even if it doesn't, it upsets the compressor and you get this surging shuffle back and forth between them That is "turbo shuffle" on a GTR. It is related to other flutter effects heard on other turbo systems, but it is a particular feature of the somewhat crappy outlet piping arrangement on RB26s. There are plenty of mods that have been attempted with varying levels of success. People have ground out and/or welded more material into the twin turbo pipe to try to prevent it. Extending the divider inside it works, removing material doesn't. There are aftermarket replacement twin turbo pipes available, and these exist pretty mush purely because of this shuffle problem.
    • You can temporarily* use lock collars to keep it in place until you can do the bushes, back the nuts off, slide them in, snug back up. *temporarily is often for ever
