hi guys. there is a few issues with my r32 gtst. rb20det

first is today I went to go for a drive and it took a while to start and didn't want to idle right. couldn't get it over 2500 rpm without coughing and spluttering and the light cat/exhaust looking warning light was flashing? so I did a u turn and drove home. then I went to start it again to put it in the garage to have a look at it and it was totally fine... weird.

second could maybe be a cause of the issue. when I bought the car it came with a z32 air flow meter which has been put after the turbo when I believe its meant to be before the turbo. there hasn't been a problem with it in that spot but I don't know if it is causing lag problems or the reason for it to be placed there. my guess is it makes for a louder dose but I don't know.

also my intercooler piping travels under the intercooler then in then out the other side. I was wondering if I get an intercooler with the intake and out take on the same side I wont need the extra piping that goes under and around into the intercooler. the car is very laggy it gets onto boost at 4500rpm.

im only just new to skylines/imports so any expert help would go down a treat.

Firstly the z32 there isn't a problem. Neither is the return type cooler Start off with this list

1. Check coil packs

2. Check plugs etc

3. Check for boost leaks

4. Check afm could just be rooted

If he car doesn't boost until 4500rpm u got big problems which could be a bad bad boost leak or a rooted turbo

      Took a little trip  went to nismo hoping the get my fuel tank hoses and unfortunately they told me they didn’t have stock luckily I was able to go to a Nissan parts store and they were able to order them in for me  then can home and cleaned the tank with some degreaser and fitted the new hoses before putting it back in the car

      100% I’ll hack into the 33. Strap a turbo onto the RB25DE and/or put the 25 head on a 30 block. 33 passed in cos the reserve was too high. I’ll try lowballing it again and negotiate. Aim is to have it landed and on the road for under 15k, then spend the same amount on top in mods.

      It's generally best practise to run 1x run without VCT enabled, then 1x run enabled till redline. Overlay the two torque graphs and you'll find the desired RPM to turn off VCT. Sometimes, it might be even worthwhile turning off VCT earlier control torque/cylinder pressure and using VCT purely to spool the turbo.

      First time I ever have issues with Amazon, but my wife often tells me to keep an eye out for fakes. It finally got me. I wrapped up the conversation with Gates. The gentlemen I was talking to seemed to hate his job but the response time on their technical support is outstanding. He stated that the hose is marked with some variation of "SAE J30R10" but that if you only purchase a 1 foot length like I did, it is possible to get a cut between markings and have a blank hose. To no ones surprise, he stated the swelling and "gummyness" isn't normal and to replace/buy from somewhere else (He mentioned NAPA). I'll toss a small end of the new one in gas for a few days before pulling the hanger out again, just to be safe.  Hose should arrive Monday. For those running multiple pump in tank hangers, you know the joys of getting them out and back in. I'm surprised I haven't destroyed my level float yet.  Lastly once I wrap all of this up, I'm planning on hitting the dyno again in 2 weeks while I'm on vacation. I realized recently that my VCT is set to turn off at 5000RPM. I'm surprised it wasn't increased while I was on the dyno last. I'm expecting I can increase it to ~6500RPM, if not more. Should hopefully get another 15-20kw out of it. I also want him to revisit my knock thresholds. I'm occasionally getting false knock around 3000rpm.
