Hey All,

Well ive finally decide to sell my little Black R32 Gts-t, but 2 months ago i forgot that i was defected for my Pod, next comes a letter in the mail....

"Notice of registration Cancellation" !!! over a ****ing pod that leaks a little bit of gas ??....

Now, the plot thickens, prior to this defect i have thrown a HKS front mount intercooler in the bay, and in order to clear my defect i had to put the standard airbox on, and just as things couldnt get any worse .... It didnt fit because of the piping... now i know alot of you will say .. "just make up a custom box" but i gonna take guess here that .... It needs to be engineered ? and the plot thickens again, theres no engineers for 2 hours were i live ... Great.

One more question, can i take off the piping on the FMIC thats in the way temporarly, put the standard box on and take it to get cleared or will the car **** up ?

So i should do what exactly ?

Please tell me that at least 1 person has been through this or similar ....

Cheers all !

Mitch

I met a whole buncha bastards who wouldn't sign off on my defect unless it was back to the original airbox.

Liek yu0 kn0... get farked...

Not after a spent the money on a new pod and fiberglass box.

Unfortunately most places who can clear defects won't jeopardise their license for only $16.50...

T.

Well, i just had an idea to cut away a bit of the airbox so it bypasses the piping... so im going to do that 2morrow....

BTW. Are the RTA leanient with defects that lead to rego cancellations ? will that let me just reactivate the rego for a small fee ?

Cheers all and thanks for the replys

Just cover the pod with a box and go to your local blue slip garage and get them to check it. It took me longer to pop the bonnet lever and raise the bonnet than it took for them to inspect everything.

To be honest their is nothing illegal about a 'pod filter' but lets not get into that again...

:D

I had one and got defected. I went to a place near me, sat the box in dodgily and just swapped it over when I left again. he was cool about it because he checked it with the standard box, didn't he? if I put it on again after he leaves it isn't his problem

I now have a standard box with K & N panel filter. I also have a HKS FMIC, but the piping fits perfectly with the box, is yours a proper kit??

why you stressing for about the pod and rta, trust me you dont have to think about them, i get those leters all the time about defects and cancelation of rego, then licence if you dont fix it, but if your in sydney message me i have someone who will clear your defects and you dont even have to change anything.

    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
