Yeah sounds like a turbo timer or possibly immobilizer issue.

But the question has to be asked, why are you letting the car idle for 5 mins? If it was sitting in traffic I could understand, but if it's to warm the car up, don't. There is no point letting the car idle to warm up. It just wastes fuel. Start it, let it idle for a couple of seconds, then just drive sensibly until it comes up to temp.

i have no idea

just a video of the car idling?

well im sure but u,could be the aftermarket fuel pump as someone stated on here.

I'll go into kyp tmz

IT HAS NO TURBO TIMER

& reason why i let the car idle?

is because i would like to know that my car is good and everything is going well.

but i was planning on getting a turbo timer installed

If it runs fine on boost then it wont be the fuel pump.... not directly anyway. There is a small chance there is a problem with the drop resistor but I doubt it.

It has no turbo timer, but does it have an alarm that has a built in turbo timer or something along those lines? Dont think it would but still

Might sound silly but, maybe try idling with the handbrake off (chock the wheels). See if it idles longer.

perhaps in some way there is something connected to the brake like the immobiliser, similar to how a timer should be hooked up?

I could be trippin' though. ;)

Yeah your right haha i even tried with the door's closed/open lol

but yeah i'll give that a shot tmz.

since the car has a Boost T i tried to whine just to see if it works

found it doesnt even whine to any direction hurt my fingers.

now im not even sure if the psi is higher or not

i vs'd a stock r33 with same mods n left it by like 2 car length's

vs a mps that flogged the r33 badly n i flogged it by a car length

the mps's is running roughly 270-280

n the mods i have are

fuel pump

full 3"

radiator

Boost T

do u think the boost is up or nah?

    • 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.
