Sorry to be silly ! But are you reading the boost of the ome gauge ?

I put a blitz return flow fmic and a 3inch JJR bell mouth on with a boost controller. It would spike to 14psi then it would drop down to maybe 12 11 psi.

I ran that for a year and it was all sweet !

Many would advise not run more that 10 psi !

@gts boy i was planin to put on a ebc and boost it upto 10 psi(had a drive just now).since its almost there should i go ahead with that mod?will runin it 12 sometimes be too risky?

my mods are full 3 inch xforce varex with split dump and k&n drop in filter thts it.

I wouldn't buy an EBC to raise the boost 1/2 a psi!! Not unless you can get one super cheap second hand. The only benefit you will get from fitting ANY boost controller at this point will be to keep the wastegate closed as it is coming on bost, which will make it feel MUCH faster even if it doesn't actually have any more total power up top.

12 psi is not risky at all. If it spikes up there every now and then (or realistically, even every time it comes on boost) you're not going to damage anything. The turbo will be fine - it won't shit itself at 12 psi any more than it would at 10. Sure, it could shit itself, but they're like playing Russian roulette anyway. The ECUs on R34s are a lot less emo than on R33s. They still tend to get well rich and retarded, and if you try to run 12 psi boost all the way to the top end then it might start to feel a bit ragged and slow. I have recent posts (in the last week or so) where I describe setting up my boost controller on my Neo and what it felt like at various boost levels. My physical mods are similar to yours. Good exhaust, FMIC, standard R32 airbox but opened up at the inlet, Metal turbo intake. Meaning that your ECU's thresholds of emoness should be similar to mine.

You need to Nistune your ECU, get the turbo highflowed, get some injectors, a fuel pump and a Z32 and tune it up towards 250 rwkW to get any better results than where you are now. A tune on the standard ECU and fuel system (maybe upgrade the pump for safety) will nett up to 210-220rwkW on a Neo, which is pretty good, but you keep the risk of the turbo going poo.

Nistune prices? See the Nistune website perhaps. It really is that easy.

Also, I am tempted to send you to lmgtfy.com for my recent post. I will have to search for it. If I have to search for it, then you could just as easily seacrh for posts by GTSBoy with the term "boost controller" or similar.

lol!Next mod has to be shift kit for trans. They take a crazy amount of time to shift between gears. First mod for any auto should be shift kit.

    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
