Hey guys tried doing a search and I am trying to find my boost restrictor on my r33 Gtr?

There is no restrictor in the pipe with the yellow band.. Is there another one? The car won't boost over 9psi.. There is a bleed valve on the car.. This fitted on the drivers side near the intake.. But the boost controller wires still connected..

Pictures or links or help much appricated..

run your boost solenoid on the turbo side, u can cap off the lines that connect to the stock boost solenoid

Search for the rb26 vacuum diagram which shows how to hook your boost controller up properly

Any pictures of how this is done.. Could I just put my boost controller over at the turbo side?

thats a picture of how i had mine setup, basically i installed a nipple on the bottom of the 'twin turbo' pipe and got the pressure source from there

You put a T piece in there going to the solenoid but what did you do with the 2 standard pipes that go to the inlet manifold? Also where's the other vacuum pipe going to?

Right I found the rear boost restrictor under the inlet manifold at the back marked with a yellow band, removed and my car is no different, still runs just under 10psi.. What else could it be?

Had a look for the yellow band mark on the front coming off the boost controller but I think my pipes have been replaced.. I know it's had a engine before..

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
