haha you're a funny bastard Nick.

Yea Chris been On the forum for a little bit just haven't posted anything as I haven't had anything useful to contribute (probably still don't haha) excited to meet up with some of the peeps on here :)

pretty sure you have met everyone on here (toowoomba anywah) already. Maybe not evo nick though

Am have a bbq and drinks on Saturday night if any of you regulars want to come around for a few drinks and a catch up. Just swing me a pm or text if you want to come and will give you the new address and time

Hey guys quick question - due to my car being from the gold coast and our obvious atmosphere difference up here would that make it incredibly difficult to start the car in the morning? Also I get zero boost in first and alot less in second than I used to a week ago when I picked it up... The blitz id3 is only registering 4psi peak when it used to be around 16 in second. I'm taking it out of town this arv for a more definitive test on actual peak boost

After that I'd check the turbo too....first check the actuator tension and if the actuator rod hasn't hopped off it's wastegate flap spindle. Then remove compressor intake pipework and check how the turbo spins/feels/play etc. Shagged turbo or popped off actuator rod will mean very low boost also.

Couple things for ya to start with ;)

And another thing that could easily bugger things up is a faulty AFM or just a blob of oil on the AFM's sensor...another thing you can add to your list.

And speaking of air/fuel mixtures....sparkplug, coil packs and block fuel filter/injector can also cause low boost....although the deterioration of these is usually gradual in nature. Sounds like this thing just happened all of a sudden?

    • Not really, but the heater box is pretty simple mechanically....if the door is one way the air bypasses the heater core and if it is the other way it goes through it for warm air.  If you are sure the actuator you moved manually is for the heater mix (there would also be one for output air direction) then I'd take the heater box out and see what is happening (you'll have to regass and re-coolant the systems afterwards) BTW pp724 onwards from the GTR workshop manual cover the system in good detail, it is probably worth checking. I think the IAT sensor might be a problem electrically for getting cold (if you got 24 error code not -24 it thinks the incoming air is -50c) and it covers how to test the sensor (although most likely it is either not plugged in or a wire is damaged)
    • Use the GKTech subframe bush and bring your subframe 10mm closer to the chassis. You'll need to fix an exhaust hanger to suit. One of the best mods I've done.
    • You'd really have to pull it apart further to know, it least you can be confident that the one heading to the back is not connected any more. There was once a ground on the shifter seal mount too, your head unit issue could be that simple
    • Perfect, I'll get to it this winter then at the same time as I weld on my anti squat kit. 
    • Alright so my 32 only has one temperature no matter what degree you set it to. I’ve tried disconnecting the servo motor arm and moving it either direction and got no change. I’ve fixed the leak in my AC and re charged it and with it on and clutch engaged it still blows hot even though the low pressure pipe going to the firewall is ice cold. Both heater core hoses are hot while running as well. Diagnostic code showed 24 for intake air temperature sensor. Anybody got any ideas?
