Hi all I am new here,

I tried looking for someone who had the same problem on the net but no luck

I have a r32 gtr. I just had it rebuilt all stock and as I am driving home I feels like it it getting a lack of fuel... sometimes it would fix its self with a small rev but sometimes it wouldnt and I have to turn the car on then off.

I have had the person who rebuilt it have quick look and he thinks its the fuel pump relay.

As I was driving home I put my foot down to overtake a car and when I pulled back to normal speed I lost all boost, I have vacuum but no boost...

Now the car keeps dieing ( stalling ) after a small drive.

There seems to be a tapping noice very soft and not that often..

I have the eboost street 40 as a boost gauge At the moment which seems to show 14psi on stock but now nothing.

Please help

"While driving home it was raining. at about 3000rpm the engine shuddered voilently kinda like a car would if you were trying to drive in 5th gear at 20km's an hour for about 7-8 seconds. it was only after that did i notice i had no boost also. vaccum is sitting at its normal reading. however the boost gauge goes to the 0 when it should have boost. this is reading of the GTR's boost gauge and...not the eboost gauge. my mechanic said it may have been the high/low fuel pump cutover but at this point when it did it, it wasnt at a point it would need the high fuel setting on the fuel pump relay"

The rebuild was 2 days ago and stock exaust. The 14psi was a spike. I never reved it out or that its still running in.

Now it sounds like the bottom end bearing again. If so my question is

I bought the parts. Does he still have to have a warrenty on his work ?

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
