Ok so i have been having a few issues with the 34 for a while now namely electrical/ sensors ect ect, and was having the fixed on thursday next week. but now i just started my car and it sounded....odd. 3x louder than usual, extreme loss of power and it sounds like my exhaust is below me feet. i checked underneath and found that i had exhaust comming from what looked like a loose connection in my exhaust setup. has anyone had this problem before? because i cant get underneath to fix it/ know how itt happned....can anyone help? or give a few ideas?

cheers....

I am not making sense of this ...

Your exhaust isn't attached in a place or is a bit or your exhaust missing? :S

Oh and it probably sounds like a rex because of your coil packs lol ...

a joint in a section has come lose, its not detached but i have exhaust leaking from it now...lol

i only had the coils put in less that 8,000 k's ago.... just tried to get to the coilpack/spark plug housing and now i find one of the bolts on the pipe above the housing is threadlocked......fail night lol

Oh I see, the usual things that causes this is becoming loss over time or hitting a bump etc ... It's an easy fix tho :blink:

Treadlocked = fail!

Sounds like the start of a long night lol ... Good luck with repairs :D

lucky! =P well i got under, and it turns out i have some shoddy workmanship. the weld that connects the other side of the exhaust has actualy come unstuck and is only held there by the bolts. so it seems it just have been what they used to seel the to parts.... kinda like this

      Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
