So I recently purchased a 92 R32 GTR and had it shipped to me. I was told it was mostly stock besides intake/exhaust. After getting the car I found that's not the case. So onto the problem, when the car makes boost it hold good up to 1 bar but after it goes over that it will cut out. the once or twice iv messed with it the make sure it wasn't a fluke the highest reading I saw was over 1.5 bar. I'm not sure if its cutting out because the fuel cannot keep up with the added requirement or if the boost is cutting out. I has the stock boost solenoid removed and both those lines cap'd off. So am i right to think it should be running off the turbo actuator pressure? When I rcvd the car it was also bone dry on fuel and i had to drive it on E to the local gas station. Maybe a clogged fuel filter?(already ordered a new one) any direction to look before I start ripping the engine apart would be great.

Side notes:

-The actuators look like they have been upgraded to HKS ones but the compressor housing still says garret

-I do know its not safe to run that much boost on stock turbos if they are stock.

Known mods:

HKS Actuators

HKS cam slider gears

Apex intake

Tomei Cat back

Some dumb hyper ground system

Stock boost solenoid delete(not sure about this)

Greddy boost gauge

step one - stop smashing that level of boost.

your gonna lean it out and kill it fast.

fuel blockage will not cause high boost, plumb the lines back into the actuators/ boost solenoid properly, if you don't know whats going on put it back to stock and get it right. it might just be bleeding to nowhere and free boosting

I'm not retarded I only did it twice. first time testing the car and 2nd time making sure it wasn't a fluke.

I'v already started ripping it apart to go as stock as i can but it did not come with the stock boost solenoid so I'm just replacing vacuum lines and making sure they are properly clamped. Also I plan to test the turbo actuators while i have it apart.

Well Figured everything out. The over boost issue was improperly routed vacuum lines and after I correct them she started running on waste gate pressure. I have since installed a electronic boost controller also. The cutting out at high Rpm's was the combo of Coil packs and installing a smaller gaped spark plug. Thanks for the advice.

    • Yes the gear for the R33/34 is different, it is red and has a different number of teeth. My part didn't come with that gear though, so I don't know how many teeth are on the red one. You'd have to reuse the 260RS/R33 gear, as long as it's not destroyed.   Haha, as unfortunate as that might be it was working fine for about the first 1500km I've had the car for now.
    • Update all   thanks to the workshop manual, it lead me back to checking fuses as mentioned central locking and door open lights worked when acc was switched on. diagram attached shows two points of power 1. ACC and 2.  Batt with the later being fused (#28) I did check the fuses using a multimeter but I must have stuffed that up also. Went back and checked the batt fuse in interior fuse box and you wouldn’t believe it… a blown fuse. replaced fuse and everything is now working as it should including the climate control   thank you all with your positive insight and knowledge.    
    • Where is the warning "That this thread is super old"   I just went into a 5 year old thread, went to do a reply, and couldn't see anywhere obvious a warning of it being super old
    • Duncan is correct. Pitwork (and Toyota's own cheap brand "Drive Joy") were primarily created as brands to sell other manufacturers car parts. It would be weird if Nissan sold parts for Toyota vehicles with a Nissan logo on it, so they created Pitwork to sell parts for other brans Toyota, Honda etc. They are not the same as Nissan genuine parts, although they *do* meet Nissan's standards for replacement parts. They aren't supposed to be a substitute for genuine parts, but a cheaper alternative that is better than Ebay fake parts from you-know-where.
