I know ther is a million posts about this but every singel post i read havent helped me yet.

I have the "standard" isue about the car strugeling/cuting at 4500rpm, after a wile it wil boost/fule cut if i keep holding the throtle, if i let go a bit i migth get it past 4500, but usaly dont. Turbo gets glowing hot, but car is running rich, dont have a afr but car spits flames.

Mods:

- 3" exhaust

- Pod filter

I have tried: 

- Changing plugs and gaping them

- new coils (yellow jacket)

- tried 2 difrent AFM's and mesured them

- cheked fule presure,, 36psi with vacume, 41psi wirout

- tryed to take out cat

- tryed to discobekt boost selinoid

- timing is 15° at 650-700rpm

Yellow jacket coils are prone to failure, OEM or blue Splitfire are best...…..set your gap to 0.8.  But without a programmable ECU or SAFC etc it will go R+R.

What is wrong with the Yellow jacket? If they are so bad why are they stil sold? Shoud work fine on a stock car as far as i know

They are sold to unsuspecting people.

Seen any high powered RBs with them? Nope.

I ran then before, brand new set. 2 died, then a 3rd. Had 2x coils replaced then gave up. Money better spent on strippers and cocaine. Mind you it was breaking up at 1 bar boost, pathetic. Bought brand new Splitfires and put 1.7bar through it no worries.

A poor man pays twice.

Also try stock boost.

I run Yellowjackets, no issues (1.1mm spark plug gap). Although my engine is standard everything.

Once you start leaning on them, you'll run into problems. There's a reason they're cheap, and a replacement for standard engine/turbo/boost level (it gets you going at the very least).

If you're planning on more power, do what the others above said.

you guys need to read what im writing, car is STOCK exept for Exhaust, filter and coils, rest is completly stock, stock boost, stock fule, stock pistons, i baugth yellow jacket becasue it seamed like an OK change from originals on a STOCK car that is not gonne be tuned

Also if you have a thing against Asians, maybe go through your belongings and throw everything out that's made in China, Taiwan, Vietnam, Thailand, Philippines, Japan into the bin - that includes your car too.

Looked at your profile, I think you meant Nissans not Nissan's. Plural vs. Possessive.

I used to run yellow jackets on my stock engine and after less than 5000kms one of them died. Never again.

I'm surprised mine are still going even after track days. But they'll probably start failing after I post this.

In saying that, I drove my car once last year so it's not like it's used a lot.

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
