Hey All,

I have an r33 gtst s1 - recently I've put on a new 3076 turbo with a 4inch intake pipe. I have yet to get injectors + fuel pump so I've just been putting around. Anyhow was driving home when I had an issue with the crank angle sensor which has now been fixed..

The issue is ever since that happened I get a screeching type of sound that comes in and out (not sure but could be metal shavings) and everytime i come to a near stop the engine sounds like it is going to cut out although it doesn't

does anyone know what the issue may be here? or what that sound is?

list your mods...

how did you expect a new larger turbo to go without getting other supporting mods?

and without getting it tuned?

please tell us you have a tuneable ECU or af control of some sort...???

i wasn't expecting it to "go" or planning on trying to do that without supporting mods.... injectors + fuel pump should be here within the week.

3' xforce exhaust

vipec v44

greddy fmic

gt3076

basically crank angle sensor went and had that fixed but ever since that there has been this winding sort of noise which hasn't gone away yet..

Did one of the washers for the CAS fall into the timing covers? Or anything else when you did the CAS?

Hard to say without seeing. This is just a guess as it's the last thing you touched before it went wrong

Nah I don't think so aye, also checked the belts and all that is sweet - while I was checking everything I noticed my exhaust was leaking though? it was leaking from the front so i lifted the car to make sure everything was tightened up and it was...

after turning the car over I had a closer listen and noticed the winding sound is actually coming from the exhaust, I just can't seem to find what the issue is and why it is leaking when everything is tightened.. I couldn't see any cracks either

map sensor + turbo change + no tune = silly.

map sensor has no way of knowing airflow like an AFM system and a turbo change will throw the tune out.

are you asking, when you install a new turbo do you need to have it re-tuned?

- new ECU and you got it tuned everything fine

- new turbo and 4" intake & tune not adjusted

- CAS issue and now you have problems

is that the order in which things have happened??

Just trying to verify the steps along the way

I got a tune as soon as I got the ecu, I was able to take the airflow meter off and stick on 4 inch intake pipe because he had been mapped.. does it still throw that tune out because I've got a new turbo on there???

a map sensor relies on the overall setup staying within a small margin of difference, a different turbo is not a small change to the system. get your tune checked it could be massively out.

on my car the difference made by having it tuned with VCT off and turning VCT on in some points made what was 14:1 now 15-16:1 AFR.

yeah that is pretty much the order that it all happened..

I see so it leans it out alot...

thanks for the advice guys, i think i know what the issue is now and definitely the solution - ta. i'll let you guys know how it goes once it's all finished and whether or not I am still having the same issues

    • 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.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
