Hi all!

need some major help with my skyline, renctly wound the boost up to 1.3 bar for a track day,

long story short blew exuast manifold gasket, put a new one in took it for a drive and the car hesitates to boost, at about .3 bar it feels like it hits a wall. looses all power until you take foot off the throttle and it will come back to life.

Ive changed;

Spark plugs and gaped to .8

new coil packs

AFM

checked;

sensors

boost leaks- none that i could find with carby cleaner

Also tried re setting the ECU

Can any body throw some suggestions my way??

well the guy that advice me to do that organises all the drift meets here, forgot to mentioned i thort i might have blown the turbo so i took it out and checked it but it seems to be fine and ive also put another standard turbo on just to eliminate that possability,

ive wound it back down to standard psi, now its running rich on idle and when it starts boosting feel like you hit a wall

ive searched RnR but not convinced that its that..

anither thing is when it starts boosting (before it hits the wall) it soulds like the psi coming out some where from the left hand side, sounds odd and its hard to explaind but ive looked at thres for the last couple of months tryi to diagnose this problem

    • I'm actually not sure - I think it was "Stealth Performance" (It really is near impossible to find a FEMALE 1/8BSPT to 1/8NPT male at ALL) but having the thing leveraged on a 90 degree angle on a small aluminium fitting is not too smart. Also in not too smart, I've drilled out the center of the broken fitting so there's maybe 0.00001mm of thread to bite into, so yeah. I may have to get it drilled/tapped/plugged entirely. Given I could conceivably tap a thread/adapter/pressure line in any point in the oil system I suppose it's feasible to run a line to the Nissan Sensor to keep the dash working. Do these exist in AN fittings and the like? Like an AN fitting that has a NPT (or other?) thread as well for putting a sensor in?
    • I would agree.  There will be an amount of boost you could run safely with an otherwise factory system, but it would be low enough to not be worth the cost.  And if you are reliving your 20s, you know a 'little bit' was never enough. Personally, if I didn't want to spend the money, then stick with NA bolt-ons, and maybe a tune.
    • Fuark, at least the motor survived. What brand was the fitting that snapped?
    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
    • Measure voltage at the starter solenoid terminal when the key is at start and it has clicked. If it is really low, then the suspicion falls on the ignition switch (contacts or wiring thereof) as causing a voltage drop instead of sending enough volts to throw the solenoid all the way to engage the starter itself. If it is a decent voltage, then the suspicion is on the solenoid. Might have s horted coil, or might hva dirty contacts. Rip the starter off, dismantle, clean up contacts and inspect winding. It might not be possible to see if there is a short in the winding though. I have a spare starter here that I could measure the resistance of the coil, as a guide to about what it should be, if you need a comparison. <parts hoarder>No you cannot have it.</parts hoarder>
