Ok guys I got an issue I’d like to hear your thoughts on. I have a r32 gts-25 non turbo that I swapped a rb20det into a few months back. Also added split dump, full 3” TBE, nistune, wideband, and other gauges. So when warm it has always had a breakup in boost at WOT. It was getting to around 11psi on my boost gauge. So I also had a 45v1 rb25 turbo that I had planned to throw on when I was diagnosing the break up, since I would already have everything apart. This past weekend I installed the turbo and used the actuator off the 20. Replaced coil packs/ gapped to 0.8/ changed afm and still had the breakup. So tonight I was out driving. I pulled over and disconnected vacuum port to BOV to see if there was any difference, and boom, the misfire/hesitation under WOT was gone. She ran and drove great, even though it had flutter. But the weird thing is I am only getting 7 psi constantly even though I changed the actuator off the 20 that I personally have had hitting 11psi for months. I’m hoping the couple beers I’ve had this evening might be having me miss something obvious...sorry for the novel. Thoughts please!

If you disconnect a bov it will leak when there's boost in the system. Pressure helps keep it shut.

Do you have a wideband? If leaking boost out of the bov made it run right it would be crazy lean otherwise.

    • ouch! how is the car now?I had sold my gtr but have been looking into some on trademe and a 260RS but I wouldnt be keen on any repairs needed on them
    • This sounds like someone who would have owned an R33 in their past... It's okay, I'm 100% picking up what you're putting down Mark.
    • Just back on what was raised about jacking off the the tow/tie down point on the front of cars. I've used it plenty. I've also watched it on a car where you could see it move the front end of the car. It was like the front end/whole car being tweaked and twisted a bit. I will say, I struggle to find good jacking points on MOST cars. The ones that have good points, I then normally struggle to find a jack tall enough to make the car change height!   One of my go to points for either the jack, or the axel stands though, is either a suspension pickup point, OR a subframe to chassis major bolting point. I actually think its the subframe on my R33 that has a bit of a bend in it, from being jacked in the middle too. However, it could have been one of my many other cars I've had over the years! Or it could also be the from me jacking it up, and the fact the top of the front radiator support isn't there, so it can allow the front of the car to move and bend etc.
    • My apologies. I forgot we were talking about weird beard M series stuff. Had been talking elsewhere with someone about an R33 with similar subject and got confused.
    • Nope, I don't like the look of ND RF, or any ND really, I don't like their faces or arses, why, because of their "modern" lines, the NC, whilst "modernish" has a more rounded shape that I like Well, that's how my overly judgemental eyes see it anyway
