Hey guys,

After installing my forward facing plenum on my r33 gtst the car is missing, backfiring and shaking struggling to stay alive.

Iv checked for vacuum leaks, bov seems to be working and fuel isn't old.

Could it be

My AAC valve air feed line from intercooler piping has a slight kink in it?

Afm,plugs,coil packs haven't been touched.

Injectors were taken out and flipped but I tried to handle them with care.

Has anyone had this happen to them?

Any of the injectors might not be firing if you have caused a connection issue on the loom plugs (or something similar).

A slight kink in the pipe to the AAC won't cause a problem, unless it has cracked or otherwise gotten damaged. As long as there is a bigger open area in the kinked part of the hose than the opening of the valve in the AAC it won't restrict flow noticeably.

Could pressure on the injector while it was out cause this?

A bending of one of the prongs that are on the tip of the injectors while they were on the bench do this?

    • It's not as simple as it is being made out to be. It s not hard, but there are things that have to be done. Am busy right now, but will try to essay later.
    • Pinout is different to my knowledge, but you should confirm to be sure. Also you will need to adjust the VQ table in Nistune to suit. I would still recommend sticking with recirculating BOVs, I'm not sure if the R35 card MAF will fully resolve stalling caused by reversion/throttle lift.
    • What issues are those? Previous owner said it wants to stall sometimes. We did test drive and it was nice and smooth so it will be sporadic or idk. And if i just change MAF(the sensor to R35 version) it should be better? And as i asked...is it like "plug n play" with oem MAF from R34?  This is a MAF from R35 right?
    • Even with no BOV you will have issues unless the MAF is a hot film type like the R35 which has some design features to deal with reversion. Hot wire MAFs are very sensitive.
    • So i just change the (whatever is inside ma original MAF and slide the R34 MAF (it is gonna fit right in? ) and somewhere on the hot side a BoV...i presume that would be vented to the atmo? I just "trying" to understand...maybe my mechanic would know this   I would not mind(even prefer) to run stock BoV cuz it is way more than fine but i do not have that and only pipeing what is left is oem J pipe ... I will be running Blitz fmic(to fit oem one side style) and i gonna need custom pipes cuz i do not have rest of those pipes and hoses... But i am want standalone ECU. Only choice i have atm is Nistune...but that is not gonna cut it right?I dont know what Nistune can and cant do... I know you guys know Link and Haltech...but whatabout ECUmaster? I know guys in here run those but i literally do not know about that and do not know differences... Just know to take whatever "my" tuner can work on.
