well my GTR may have a boost issue, took it for a drive at lunch and it didnt seem to hit boost properly, i finish work at 4:30 so ill drive her home and im just hoping it was just not being able to open it up enough, display was saying it was boosting but it didnt feel like it was pulling like it should.

Well if you think there is a problem lay off the boost until its checked.... Mine felt similar when the injectors started to block and it started leaning out, you could have any number of issues or nothing at all BUT dont test it the hard way!

yeh im over it, if something is f**ked good chance it will go on carsales.

I dont have the time or the money to keep funneling cash into it atm and its my primary mode of transport for work. im hoping its nothing may just me being paranoid ill find out when i drive home, ill give it a little bit of a stab see if it boosts at all if not ill just baby it home, its going to the mechanics tomorrow for run in service anyway.

Dude its a modified car, shit is gunna go wrong and you said you were out thrashing last night...... Look at the run of luck i had!

Teething problems are going to happen man, you could just have a dodgy vacuum line, blown cooler piper (or leaking) or a million other things BUT all fixable!

Dead cat?

So what your saying gummy is that when I most started slipping I shouldnt of kept "testing" it's durability for the next month? Lol

:blink:

You on the rums already?

Maybe Matt should have listened to his own advice...His clutch welding abaility wouldn't have been near as good.

Adam, know exactly how you feel. Stay with it mate...it will be all worth it in the end

Yeh if its something simple then all sweet, but if its a rooted turbo or something thats a pain in the ass..... i wasnt thrashing it down old pac didnt take it over 5k rpm sinec run in service has not been done yet, was a slow run.

yeh, well after 10.5k on engine, service and radiator, im over having issues lol so is my wallet.

I still have a stock engine and i think i have spent 25-30k lol

And THEN you will find something else to break, everytime you make something stronger you introduce a weaker link somewhere........ It part of the fun man!

    • I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.
    • Yeah I understand you have to pay for an updated map or subscription service or something. But I can't even find a current map for Australia. My map is dated 2017, but didn't this car version still sell in Australia until 2021?   Also, just as an aside, the navigation system warns you of traffic incidences ahead.....why would they include that on a map they knew is not receiving live information. I am forever going to be warned of an incident that probably existed for 30 minutes 8 years ago.

    • sensible choice....and all 32s should be in yellow
    • Run it in open loop for now, and drop the frequency down. This lowers the resolution and requires more duty cycle to do anything, however good to troubleshoot.
