can someone help with an issue in having with my rb20det, it seems to be struggling to go through 3000 to 4000rpm seems to be when it tried to hit boost, and then goes past 4000rpm fine hitting to 12psi. I've recently installed 32gtr injectors and ran individual resistors not sure if that would be an issue? Also I've tried fiddling with the boost tee and it doesn't seem to do anything even if I take the control screw right out? Could it be wastewater or the tee? Any suggestions on where I should start?

No It wasn't running great when I first bought it about 4 months ago and I've slowing been fixing it up. I thought it was the previous injector seals and leaking injectors that's why I replaced all of it. It seems to misfire only around 3-5k revs, just wondering where I should start looking at what the problem is coming from? I've heard igniter pack might be a good place to start?

Replaced ignitor pack and had no difference, looking at splitfire Coilpacks now hopefully that fixes it. I read on forums about people changing the injectors to GTR and no one seemed to have this problem, so I'm hoping It isn't that. I'll still be taking it to a dyno once I've got it registered in about a week or two to get a tune.

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
