Recently I've just got my car back on the road after blowing the clutch, before all of this when driving it would come on boost hard and hold through the gears smoothly. The car sat still for a number of months and then the clutch was replaced, after doing this and replacing my coilpacks with new splitfires the car didnt feel as powerful or smooth when it should have felt better with a new clutch and coils, it would hesitate at full boost sometimes and every now and then it will feel like its losing fuel up top like splutters and such (could be spark also im not sure). I took it into get tuned and looked at to see if i could eliminate at least one probelm, we sat there for a few hours running it and it was fine, the tune didnt need much tweaking just pulled some timing out up top, after the tune it still felt no better and has gradually gotten worse. Sometimes it runs okay still hesitant at full boost though its like you feel it coming on hard but once its almost to full boost it flat lines. Does anyone know where i could start, Im trying to sell the car soon so id like it running to full potential with no problems for the next person, any help is appreciated, Cheers!

aac valve... clean that.... for the stalling are you running a z32 maf? check your afm voltage on your commander... maximum voltage out put is 5v.... if you hit that before full power then that could be your problem.... it was on mine when running higher boost.

Change the duty cycle lower on the avcr to contol the boost early. I just put a IW gt3076 with a tiny .63 housing and I have really bad spikes. I run very low duty cycle to stop it. Good contoller. Gapping your plugs to .80 and checking your new coil packs haven't split/crack.

    • CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) has existed since the 80's. I'm looking into buying a Hummer H1 and they generally included it. 
    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
