Today...

Swapped my Spare ECU into the Wags. (didn't fix the Intermittent Fuel Pump Priming) :(

Replaced a Green Relay in Behind the ECU which apparently pretty much controls everything. (May have fixed the priming issue) :)

Chucked in 2 spare Old Coolant Temp Sensors. (bled the air out)

Cleaned the AFM. (again)

Pulled out and cleaned the O2 sensor.

Tightened a couple of Rocker Cover Screws. (near Exhaust Manifold)

Removed the Exhaust Manifold Heat Shield and found the main Exhaust leak. (Pretty sure there should be bolts in these holes) :/

More jobs for the thread repair guy

Just make a list, get them all fixed at the same time, so its only one callout fee.

Did nothing to mine today.... too hot, later tonight when the little terror is asleep, ill take off the rear bar, tailights, do the last of the vynil stripping and the door rubbers have to be carefully removed.

Then its ready for final clean and de-waxing, especially the edges and where the rubbers were.

The list of sht to do, to prep it for paint is very long. Lets see how far i get before the missus realizes what im doing. :w00t:

Tried to reduce scrubbing.. Tend to get a little bit on crappy roads... :( Moulded the front splash guards with a heat gun. Raised the rear of the car about 5mm.. Was going to wash it but I think its going to rain at some stage over the next 24 hours.. Fingers crossed anyway :yes:

Detailing the Swift - Typical bloody thunderstorm then hail ! (x2)

Had GTR up the top with the 34.

Started to rain, then hail. First put a doona over the GTR bonnet then Kicked swift out of garage and moved the GTR just as the 2nd hail storm hit.

Was over quick. Shuffling cars what a pain.

Also had Shawty's magna here trying to fix the rear drivers side window. Wont go up. Had to tape garbo bags over it.

Agree with above. Soarer looks Tough! What are those wheels + sizes etc...?

Today SkyWagStag got her much needed new thermostat and Coolant after a good hose flushin'. :D But now my temp gauge in the cluster doesn't work. :(

Also played more AAC, TPS, Throttle stop adjust games and may have hit the sweetspot. No more chugga lugga when floored from a standing start.

Woot! I tells ya.

While out in the 33 I had some Dude in an Audi SUV thing rip past me in Fury as my relatively cheap old Skyline formed one lane before him. :nyaanyaa: Sucker.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Duncan · Posted

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
