r33 s2, lately the car has being getting a good work out through the hills, and my boost timer allows for this and ups how many minutes it will let the car cool down it got to around 10mins in some cases( it starts on 30secs)

now after driving the car to work being nice with only a few boosted moments the timer starts going up to around 34seconds, as far as im aware of it never used to change unless i was really giving it a hard time, atleast when it goes back down after a while.

does this mean my turbo is on the way out( iv given it a hard life for the short time iv had it)

also when my car is very hot and im doing around 40km and its in second and i floor it to around 80-90 when it hits 5500rpm it seems to make some werid noise from ehuxast stutter for a split sec and then back on track with power does it sound like coilpacks, when its cold or hasent been driven for hours on end its fine.

also for the first 5-10mintues of driving my car its very very powerful but sort of moody( i know you should let it warm up) i think its the vct or boost not sure but around 4500rpm something kicks in like a mofo, yet when the car is warm there is no big kick and the car is less powerful unless its just become smooth i dont know.

also my turbo makes a very very course sound( has since i got it) does that mean anything??

yes i know i dont have punctuation and cant spell.

any info is good thanks

ignore the turbo timer. it can't tell you what condition your turbo is in.

as for feeling different when cold, when the engine is cold the amount of fuel and timing the ecu is running is different to when it's warm. also the turbo and intercooler (and the engine bay in general) are colder so the air is more dense.

the sound the turbo is making, well that is hard to say. really need to hear it to know for sure. could just be normal intake noise.

yea just thought because the turbo timer now needs more time to cool down than it used to, how does it know when to increase how long the turbo needs to cool down??

any info about the stuttering at 5500rpm when very very hot

if it's when hot then it will more than likely be the coils, but it could be any of the things that terry has posted above. start with the spark plugs (as they are the cheapest) and go from there. if the fuel filter hasn't been changed in a while, or is of unknown age, might be worth changing that as well, since they are cheap.

    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
