Hi guys, been searching everywhere for an answer but cant seem to find a pinpoint one so im hoping you guys can help.

Basically when i hit about 4.5-5 revs the car just seems to die in the ass and not want to go anywhere at flat foot but if i creepy up the revs at 1/2 throttle and then 3/4 throttle then flat foot it at higher revs it goes like a rocket but after giving it that little boot full the turbo seems to completely stop working and wont even spool up or flutter for ages unless it sits for awhile or car is turned off.

Now when im flat foot it just feels like its choking and struggles to move through the 4+ revs or even the lower revs when trying to accelerate a little quicker then normal.

also when putting the boost up to say 10-11 psi the turbo always spools but its like the ecu doesnt know what or how to handle this bit of extra boost and just wont go anywhere aswell.

hopefully i have described this decently enough to have you gurus tell me how to fix this issue, as it seems to be a trick to try and put into words how to describe whats happening lol.

specs- rb25det neo, all stock setup except for coilpacks which are probably less than a year old (splitfires), changed plugs less than 2 weeks ago.

car has only recently in the last couple weeks started having this issue and before that it was a fun and reliable car to thrash around.

cheers

Search nazis should be shot, a bit like small dick punctuation nazis...

anyway back on subject, you changed plugs now have issues? Is that the only thing you've done? What's your air filter like? Fuel filter?

Air/fuel/spark [emoji6] check those first

Either put everything back to stock, or tune the car.

You can't just go bumping the boost up without tuning, it will run like balls and perhaps throw a turbine wheel. It will run even worse if you have a highflow turbo you don't know about.

Possibly answered your own question...did you correctly gap the plugs?

Everything is back to stock, was just driving home from the gym and it seems once the turbo spools up to a certain point and I off the accelerator it just stops working.

Plugs were gapped correctly and I'm under the impression I'll need to go for a tune, was just seeing if anyone has any ideas. I'm very new to the forced induction life, lesrn from

Your mistakes I guess.

Cheers guys :)

Turn you boost down, colder weather means denser air. More "air" read by the AFM means a higher TP Load, and because it's a stock ECU and tune you're hitting cells where timing is absolutely retarded as fk.

Boost doesn't equal TP Load, you might be able to run 10/11 psi in summer or so but when it's cold you'll hit those cells running the same boost.

I suggest you turn down the boost.

Sounds like your AFM has dry joint inside it then. Cut it open and solder the pins first, there is a how to on here somewhere.

A new Z32 AFM and a tune would likely fix it too.

Thanks dude, I had a feeling it might be the afm so I'll go sort out a z32. I appreciate the feedback

      V37 Alarm settings and what the buttons do.

      By HYBRID VL · Posted

      I have been looking at some setting on the alarms for the Q60 and what buttons do and so and also been looking for details on the alarm in my V37 which is a standard issue with the car. settings like window roll up and a few others seem to not work at all. i cant seem to find exact info on V37 alarms so Q60 is all i can really go off i have not tried 400Z alarm settings or info yet so that will be next. any one got like a sheet of info on the alarm system in the V37 as all my documents are in japanese but i thought the system would basically be like standard through similar models?

      I had a fuel smell coming from the drivers rear and pulled the tank out to inspect where it was coming from, turns out the breather hose from the tank to the filler neck was perished. I’m going to Japan next week and I’ll grab it while I’m there  pulled the oil tank apart and started cleaning this crap out of it, some brake cleaner and rags got it looking new again

      Hmm. Was quite a few years ago now. I think I bought from a crowd in the US called CDT Audio. The speaker is the HD-6. The HD-6CF would have been the better option (based on T-S parameters), but they were discontinued in 4 ohm at that point in time. The HD-6 is a better driver in almost every other way (than the CF) - just not as good in IB. They still do the HD-6. They might even have a more suitable (for IB) option here.https://www.cdtaudio.com/cdtnew22/products/components/woofers/midwoofers/midwoofers.htm But, here's the rub. I was working in the US a lot back then, so I got them delivered to my US office and then just brought them back to OZ myself. I don't know if they will ship to OZ, and it probably wouldn't be great cost-wise anyway. As to results. They're driven direct off the rear channels of my headunit, because the headunit can be setup to run the rears as subs. So, not a lot of power being fed there. Nevertheless, there's no shortage of volume - the sub levels don't need or want to be boosted at all. The bass is definitely not what you would call "tight". It is definitely a bit delayed compared to a proper sub. But, with the great front soundstage and really good 6.5" woofers in the front doors, I'm getting most of the bass detail from the front and the rear is really only to extend the bottom end a bit. Works for what I'm doing. I mean - until recently you couldn't really hold a conversation in my car due to the fuel pump, and for many years I had tyres so noisy (Kumho KU36 at <50 tread depth) that I had to drive with earplugs anyway!

      curious to know what drivers you chose and the results? quik mafs, says two 6.5s should roughly equate somewhere between a single 8" or 10" driver. i agree that IB is definitely the way to go in most cars imo.

      Rear suspension upgrades

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      S13 and R32 rear suspension geometry is horrible once you lower it (which everyone does). The camber & toe out ramp is very aggressive, hence it's common for the S13 boys/girls to use a S14 or S15 subframe as the geometry is light years ahead. I'm sure the same can be done on R32s, but I don't know anyone that has done that.
