hey guys i have done a turbo conversion form a r32 ca18de body i put in a new 20det engine and all. i have a wasted spark setup new plugs but as soon as car hits boost it just starts to miss and cant boost it feels like a fuel cut, i have tried new cas and new afm still no change, if anyone could help would be great

Oh yep got ya. my bad. Could be a shitload of things man. I had to change Fuel Pump,AFM,Coilpacks,Sparkplugs and the fuel pump relays in my RB25det for it to boost normal. So yeah if your Fuel pump works it might be an idea to replace the relays but apart from that, thats all the help i can be. good luck :)

If your CAS needs to be turned that far one way to start you have a serious problem.

Having the CAS where it is, is a very big problem in itself and is bad news for your internals. Fix that ASAP.

If she's hard to start, try adjuting the TPS, throttle cable tension, and idle.

You might have very low compression, or a leak along the intake somewhere, both would explain it cutting out on boost only (but agian, I'd strongly suggest you get that CAS fixed up before she goes pop)

ECU throwing A/T code nothing to worry about if it's manual.

Basic fuel pump diagnosis:

If you wait for the pump to finish priming, is it easier to start? vs turning the key to start straight away

Does it make an inconsistent sound when priming (ie starts of louder, then gets quieter, or visa versa)

hey guys i found the problem it was my pod filter one of the bolts was gone so there was extra air getting in so now i can get to boost but as soon as it gets to 10psi it goes all funny and wont hold 10, and my cas is back in the middle now after fixing the air leak if runs fine in the middle

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
