Hey guys

I Was just driving to civic and my controller is running unlimited boost for some reason. I haven't changed any setting or anything

It hits 14-15psi then jolts the whole car like the engine couldn't keep up. Checked the hoses to the controller and they all seem fine

Ideas?

Thanks guys

Turned the settings all the way down and it runs a solid 5-6psi now I just been WOTing it down the back streets and slowly setting my low setting in the controller back up

It's now pretty much got a flat 9psi programmed back into it.

Really weird because I didn't touch the settings at all and all of a sudden it started hitting 14psi on my low setting which was programmed at 8psi

Can anyone else hear their solenoide ticking away as they put their foot down? It sounds like someone clicking a pen really quick and can be heard in the car quite clear

You should be hearing the solenoid. That is weird and freaky bout the unlimited boost. Glad you got it sorted and didnt break anything!

Mine was giving me unlimited boost when i accidently mispiped it, had the wrong holes on the solenoid, but i was watching and paying attention cos was intending to set up the controller.

Haha its bloody scary!

I was just hitting Northbourne and gave it some and it just kept spooling

Then the whole car just went clunk and jolted

Girlfriend was like "WHAT THE FU$% DID YOU DO THAT!"

She thought I did it on purpose lol

I'm lucky that when I run with nothing connected to the actuator my ecu hits overboost cut :)

Yeah that's what I think they are way over priced

I will just get this nistune up and running then later when I throw more upgrades then it can handle I will sell and upgrade

People are running ~400rwkw with Nistune.

I don't think it has a limit for power or basic mods. It's when you wanna get complicated by plugging a wideband o2 sensor into it and stuff like that

    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
    • It's TWO steering wheels actually. 😛 one for each hand They are wheels, and they steer!
