So, I've had this car for almost a year and I have never noticed this, hence why I'm here.

Let's say your driving off boost. Then you push the throttle a little further until you make boost, as soon as it goes from 0psi to positive boost, there's a click, like a relay click, coming from where the boost solenoid is in the bonnet.

Has it always done that? Haha. I'm paying a lot of attention to it now... Grrr

Thanks

It must be quite common, had to follow my old man his pathfinder recently, when we went onto the motorway on ramp I was going to fly past him, but just before thought I felt something vibrating in the back and ended up not even keeping up with him! :action-smiley-069: haha, car's been fine since

yes, if you turn the ignition on you should hear it clicking as the solenoid opens and closes.

mine sounded like a playing card in bicylce spokes haha

He is right, I shat my bricks when I heard it too. Put the ignition to "on".. "click" i kept wondering for a couple of days and with some research it was the solenoid.

yes, I get that all the time haha

usually after I give the car a squirt...spend the next hour listening for broken bits lol

This is exactly the same as me

I've spent every drive since my tune listening and popping bonnet.

So much so that my bonnet cable is farked

    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi
