Hi all, I recently replaced the turbo in my car with a high flow (no supporting mods yet) and have got the car running smooth on idle with no vad noises. Drove it out of my driveway and back in pretty much just to swap cars around and noticed as soon as the cars in drive at idle there is a shuddering that goes through the whole car, it doesnt try and lurch forward like it would with a wrecked converter tho, just shakes until I put it back into neutral or reverse.

Anybody had this problem before? Any ideas appreciated,

Cheers :)

Sorry if its not what you meant by "what revs?" But idle is set to around 900, when I re installed the turbo I double and triple checked all the vacuum lines had somewhere to go but I broke one at yhe rear of the motor and super glued it back in place, possible cause? I know theres an empty place for a vacuum line onbthe block near the turbo but it seems to be one for a line off the manual boost controller which doesn't reach there. Other than that all lines are in place

sorry I think I left a few words out of that sentence.... I meant to say, what revs does it idle at in gear (generally lower than neutral in an auto, and turning on the aircon should raise the revs)

but anyway I think you found the problem, any vacuum nipple without a hose must cause a leak. if you put your finger over it when the engine is running can you feel it sucking, and does it start to idle higher? If that is not the leak you might also have a small split in one of the hoses (very easy when removing and replacing brittle stock hoses, so double check everything. also check all the hose clamps that you had to undo on the intake to fit the turbo

    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
