Still having troubles? Ok.. just looking at this, few things occur to me.. but i could be completely wrong.

It sounds like you're not actually getting enough pressure to the injectors in the first place, and that sems to be the source. Even stock N/a injectors should be enough to run a little boost. Have you checked the fuel pressure at the rail, and is within range ? May be useful to rig up a pressure tester to the rail and see what you're getting. If you're not getting the required pressure in, the injectors won't be working correctly and hence may reach max cycle prematurely. Also, check your fuel pressure reg? is there any difference between the stock fuel pressure reg, and say the turbo thing. Again, the lack of pressure to the rail thing springs to mind.

Also the other is to check the source of course, and that is the fuel pump itself. Are there differences between the n/a fuel pump and turbo fuel pump in terms of flow? I know on like the GTS R33 there can be a difference.

Lastly, the AFM signal and when its maxing out is a bit of a telling sign. You tried other AFMs? it seems similar to the circumstances reached when you max out a stock GTS-T AFM when you hit the 220rwkw mark (and hence go for a Z32) when it can *appear* the injectors are maxing out .. and with the emanage, i believe you need a separate injector harness to be able to control/dictate the injector pulse rate which will be important in this situation to override the ECU's injector timings.

.. so overall it sounds more like other factors than the injectors at work here.. and it may just be the end result of them maxing out that is the most obvious.

Hope that might be some food for thought, if you haven't already gone through it all (probably have :()

p.s. thanks for the toulene!

The new injectors are in and It's now running VERY rich...so looks like it was just the stock ones not having the balls. My AFM is the turbo one anyway so not a problem...I've also got the injector harness hooked up.

The fuel pump is capable of flowing the pressure, also the fuel rail is up to the job.

The second the 385cc injectors were in, everything seemed to be OK...Thursday will be the final check on the dyno and with A/F ratios.

A few pics I quickly took, excuse the inch of dirt in the engine bay :D

I can honestly say even driving the car around at less than 3000rpm (to prevent any misadventure until full tune) it would still out perform the standard car revving the balls off it!

Hello Dan. Very intersested in what you have done as I would like to do exactly the same thing with my R34. Bought it in December and thought I could just whack a turbo on it but told it would be better to do an engine swap. Have you posted outcome of the operation and procedure.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Heya, got on the dyno, but was getting some bad timing retarding happening...waiting for my ignition harness to arrive for the e-manage.....then I can sort out the timing spikes back to something a bit less advanced. Will try and do it in time for the Mercury Motorsport Dyno weekend.'

I'm suprised your insurance was against the idea...my insurance didn't increase at all.

      Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.

      Recomended Coolant For Gt T R34

      By silviaz · Posted

      What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.

      Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!

      R34 4 door side skirt identification

      By Rezz · Posted

      No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
